    What Hasselblad?

    I have brought my Hasselblad 503 CX and Hasselblad 903 SWC to Europe several times with the 50mm and 80mm lens. The overall weight traveled well and was convenient. Taking the 250mm lens would have been less useful and a bit too heavy for me.

    Canadian Tire is more than a tire store. It seems to have some social context and a social meeting place on Saturday mornings that does not come through to the rest of us.

    Metering lower, pushing higher

    I found Ansel Adams' Zone System development was confusing until I use expansion and contraction instead of push and pull.

    Where to buy CR2 batteries in Paris France?

    I got lucky! The camera store was 25 meters from the hotel and the batteries were fully charged!! The last time in Paris I walked the Champs de Elysee store by store for kilometers and when I bought the batteries for the Hasselblad PME, the batteries were bad. I did not know that and ended up...

    Museum photo policies

    Since one has just adjusted to a new time zone, just get up earlier. There is too much to see to miss things.

    What is a photographic print

    I prefer silver gelatin prints made on enlargers or contact prints. In 2006 I started with a scanner and an inkjet printer. I made about ten prints and had to replace the ink. I did that again. When I went to Costco, I decided that I would not scan to convert film to files and started...

    I use a 5 gallon [US not Imperial] paint bucket and marked it on the inside with a 4 liter and 5 liter level. But Canadian Tire, how prefect! All the Canadians spend their Saturday mornings there for some reason.

    I could not find a suitable thread. Thank you for finding a home for it. No misunderstanding. I requested them to repeat the whole statement. I was not interested in an argument so I checked my camera bag and moved on. There were no restrictions in the Rijksmuseum.

    Yesterday we went to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. All digital camera including phones were allowed to take photographs. Specifically film cameras were banded. I was planning on storing my camera in my pack to ease of movement walking around so I did not bother to discuss to obvious...
