I would have but I have never had that problem. I think that post 4 hit the cause of the problem.

The only places that I know to do a CLA on a Hasselblad are not near by you so you will have to ship it. One place is Hasselblad in southern California and the other place I have used is KEH.com in Atlanta Georgia. Call both places to learn about the costs and the turnaround time.
