One day, Sony will introduce a robot that is perfectly designed to operate a Hasselblad 6x6 SLR. It will, of course, have three hands...... Only three? Wow! Some robot! ;-) |

The only thing I really wished for was shutter speeds slower than 1 second. Counted 'thousands' in "B" ... exposures are fine... Ve100F, E100S/VS.

m... So what would your ideal camera be? A camera with the Contax G2 specs, in G1 size, with a silent winder and shutter. Black. And a 1x zooming viewfinder that covers 21-90. Oh, and an optional digital back would be cool. Robert Meyers |

Mind you i'm getting the goods a lot of the time, its only the sports stuff that i'd benefit from. |

Sounds like you're using it as a tripod camera, for which it is great. Actually, I wasn't really doing down the 'blad - just noting that if there is one area where it is behind most other MF, that is it... Peter |
