    Hasselblad - Holy Trinity or 60-100-180?

    I too have the 903 SWC, but I eschew the 40mm lens. I bought the 30mm C Fisheye and the 500mm C lenses, even though I otherwise stick with the CF lenses, because the quality was high and the price so low that I could not pass them up. All the Hasselblad lenses are high quality glass, see my...

    Anybody uses OP/Tech USA neoprene straps with MF cameras ?

    Carrying a bag on one side is bad for the back, especially if out shooting all day. Use a photography back pack and the camera around my neck. The distribution of weight front and back is good to balance and posture.

    Why did the BEATLES shoot with Pentax ?

    As a teenager I wanted the Bronica S in the worst way. I liked the Ashahi Pentax until the bayonet mounts because available. In 1966 when I went to work in Italy for the summer I bought a Minolta SR7. From then on I only owned Minoltas, upgrading every few years until 2004 when I switched to...
