It is wise to adjust ones choice of cameras and lenses depending where and when one is traveling. I usually use my Hasselblad cameras when I travel to Europe or by car in the USA, however if I will not have as much time as I would like I use my Nikon AF cameras.

I have been freezing film since 2003 and never had a spot problem with 135, 120 and 4"x5" black & white or color. Only freeze if the original packaging has not been opened otherwise one must put it in a ZipLock bag sealed with the air squeezed out.
That reminds me that if I am in antipodal spaces, New Zealand or Australia, after consuming a large meal, it is not the best thing to say, "I am stuffed". 😆
The Nikon F100 has the same shutter in the film advance lever. I find it intuitive and easy to use. If one were to need to dissect it, and choose to, what would percentage of the camera's entire life time would that take? Not much above zero. If confronted with the needed repair, I would...
In 2003 my girlfriend won the just released Tamron AF 28mm to 300mm Zoom lens which was not available for my Minolta X11, so my choices of cameras to buy was the Canon or Nikon. I choose the Nikon N75 and never regretted the decision. I have also keep the same girlfriend.
This market force allowed me to buy my Hasselblads, Hasselblad lenses, Pacemaker Speed Graphic, and Graflex Model D at bargain prices when professional photographers were dumping the film equipment to buy the latest digital equipment at that time.
But would that work as well. Kodak used people taking snapshots to finance a large R&D budget to answer such questions. Is better concentration all that much more useful?
I agree with minor changes in the wording. I enjoy the film process in a way that I do not get a similar enjoyment in digital workflow. For me digital workflow is somewhat similar to digital workflow for me: photograph and cull the results.
HBC saw and photographed many things, people and situations that we never noticed until we saw a print of it. This is just one that I still do not see after looking a the print.

Many times I can catch the decisive moment in one shot, but sometimes it takes more and then to find it requires one to do some editing. Who really cares if it take more than one photograph? If someone had the audacity to criticize me for taking more than one photograph to capture the decisive...
Absolutely yes the Hasselblad 903 view finder has distortion but it is good enough for framing and using the air bubble to balance. However see exactly what the coverage at the bottom is hard to see. What to do? Turn the camera upside down if the coverage details at the bottom are important.
I have been though this before. Have a CLA done one each lens by a Hasselblad repair person. Then every three months, remove the film back from the camera, mount each lens, set the time to 1 second, the smallest f/stop, and cock and shoot between 10 to 15 times. I have been told by my...
Do not use the attachments, they are too narrow. The Voightlander FOV will be an approximation. You are better of with the Hasselblad viewfinder which also shows the bubble level in the view finder.
