    Best/Worst Hasselblad Lenses For V Bodies

    Hmm early on I was thinking about switching from the 150mm to the 180mm lens. Since neither would get much use, it is better that I did not swap.

    Best/Worst Hasselblad Lenses For V Bodies

    The only advantage I see with the 40mm lens is that one can see through the lens. I greatly prefer the 38mm Biogon because of the rectilinear correctness and lighter weight.

    Photographing During A Snow Fall

    I have trouble following your calculations using audio only during the videos. If you would show the calculations on a white board, it would be easier to follow and provide an audit trail for you. I would have started with an incident reading or Zone V off my hand based on my experiences...

    Photographing During A Snow Fall

    When you are in snow conditions like that, hang your camera bag under the tripod: So you can find it in the snow. Keep the snow outside the camera bag. Added weight to the bag in case the wind comes up, not needed this time. So you do not loose things.

    I agree with Pieter. Recirculating keeps the fixer available to reenter the paper.

    Anyone using infrared thermometer for water temp?

    I just use the thermometer built into my Jobo CPP2 processor for both black & white and color film. That has always been accurate enough.

    Welcome to Photrio! from southern California. Boring blue skies 350 days a year. I use this for my Hasselblad 903 SWC. Feel free to ask questions. The only bad questions are the ones that do not get asked.

    Repair shops that work on Hasselblad 200 series

    As a long time Hasselblad owner it is sad to see that the owners of the company, not the Hasselblad family any longer, are doing everything they can to abandon the camera owners in hopes that the camera owners will come to them as customers. The Hasselblad 907 100C had approximately four times...

    C41 washing and pink stabiliser

    I use a five minute pre wash with the Jobo processor which sheds a lot of the pink dye for both C41 and black & white processing. For the final wash I use eight 500ml rinses for 30 seconds each. That leaves no pink on the film.

    Easy solution! Either just stop your heart from beating or use a prism. Your choice, obviously.

    POP ==> the photograph as more pop!, the contrast is higher. Often the split grade printing is enough. I could not get that with single grade printing. It allows me to work on the contrast for the high contrast parts separate from the sky contrast.
