If i remember right, the actual release of the camera is actuated by a plunger, moving in and out of a magnet.

We are a valuable commodity, as you will find when you receive your invoice. I have given you the " first time " discount for professional advice and you will be able to claim back the GST if you are based in Australia but be careful what you ask in the future. Bandwidth is expensive as they are no longer making it and the price is bound to rise by Christmas. On the other hand, if you can use half-baked opinions and oddball political theories I am prepared to deliver these at cost. I already supply a retail chain called One Nation and there is no reason I cannot extend the same disturbing terms to this list. Can I write you up for some? Uncle Dick PS: is there anyone in the list with a collection of Hasselblad Forum magazines he would like to sell? Or a collection of Linhof Grossbild magazines? I have just taken a course on bookbinding and I think I could just about do it if I had the raw material. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 05:36:08 -0500 From: "Sam Krneta" To: "Hasselblad" Subject: Test Message-ID: <000201c115be$c84948a0$4e0e2042@pc1> This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0003_01C11594.DF7340A0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit ------=_NextPart_000_0003_01C11594.DF7340A0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Here stateside, the Rollei was more expensive than the Hasselblad. It was superior in the functionality of being more modern and updated. However, the used market is nil, likewise the rental market also. As for repair centers, there were only two at the time. I went and purchased the Hasselblad 500CM and 503CX due tot he big used market and the high availability of rental equipment. Since then, I have added on the following cameras: SWC/M and 503CW. My lens lineup consists of 50mmFLE, 60mm, 80mm, 120mm, 150m and the 180mm. The most used lens has been the 50mm, 60mm, 80mm, 120mm and 180mm. I shot most hand-held in the field and have not had any problem shooting that way. The Hasselblad is fantastic as it doesn 't require any batteries. My only 2000 / 200 series exposure is with my 2000FCM. I am planning on have a Kiev 30mm and a CZJ 180mmF2.8 converted to a Hsselblad mount, to be used on this body. As for lens, I have all CF lenses. Regarding the Cf versus CFi lenses, the CFi are reported to have better flare control over the CF and are also using the new Eco-glass. Depending on the type of portrait that you tend to shot, (tight headshots only or 3/4 body shots) the 180mm is better for the former and the 150mm for the later. On occasion, I have used the 150mm with extension tubes to get the same effect as I would with the 180mm. The 180mm is the newest of the lens lineup.

There was, and perhaps still is, a 35 mm back for Hasselblad, the A2035. It was discussed here not so long ago, so perhaps this discussion is still easy to find in the Digest. It took regular 35 mm film, and exposed 20 or 22 vertical 24 x 56 mm frames on one 36 regular frame cassette.. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 12:02:48 -0700 From: "Frank Filippone" To: Subject: RE: digital back on Hassy 20x bodies Message-ID: <002e01c11605$8f776a60$0201a8c0@Workgroup> These backs are being sold to pros that use them to make money. The heavy market for catalogs save all kinds of $$$ by going direct to digital and prepress, and avoiding wet D+P costs, re-shoots, time and the inevitible scanning costs and time savings...... The cost of the backs is easily written off in a few shoots, if not faster by either or both the end user ( catalogger) or the photographer....To boot, they are produced in limited quantities, in heavy R+D electronics companies.

Hasselblad did make one at one time, part number 63073. They would make one
again, but the cost would be high. One factor is that it would interfere with
regular production.

One of the members does sell a conversion kit for Hassy backs. Maybe he will
see this a give you some info.
