Most likely debris from foam padding, mirror bumpers, light seals or just plain dust.

I bet my money on Nikon and what Henning Serger posts, not on other random internet people that I do not know.

Superior quality control is the main reason Kodak film has been popular for over a century.

Good if you stop buying Kodak products there will be more available for me. Thank you for your service. How long have you had suicidal tendencies?

HINT: The reason that you still have the Hasselblad is that you are a wise man.

If there is a hobby shop near you, you might find the right size screw. Otherwise you might want to contact www.KEH.com and ask the repair department if they will sell the correct screw to you.

Developing ones own film is as easy as falling off a motor cycle. It is making the enlargements without an enlarger that is more challenging. That is where scanning and the use of a computer comes into play for many.

RESPOOL IN THE DARK! If you do not have a darkroom, get a changing bag and respool in the changing bag.

Well maybe in your neighborhood but in southern California it is more like Porches for interns and residents and Bentleys for established doctors.

What we do know from experience is that when we drop our guard and least expect it, the prices will rise. We must stay vigilant!

Use a bright light, such as an iPhone Flashlight app to locate the speck and remember it will be on the right side of the frame from the back or the left side of the frame from the front. Be sure to look not just at the edge of the frame but also into the open box and also near the lens mount...

So you are posting because you want to pay more for film? I am wondering what do you want?

No the party line it not the doctors, but the dentists. They will even pull teeth to get their hands on a Hasselblad or Rollei SL6000.

Seriously in absence of a manufacturer's announcement, do you really expect more?

This is thoroughly address by the plethora of the absence of discussion of to F3s and F4s. The OP will not accept a camera with LCD bleed. Instead the OP will look at a newer better copy or buy the F100 or F6 and get a LCD with signs of bleeding.

There are no practical 6x6 digital systems. First of all the cost to make sensors that large with a high enough yield per batch rate [all or virtual all the pixel must be fully functional], then the CCDs [or equivalent] must move the analog information digitally fast enough and accurately...

That just means that the so called photographer does not know the first thing about taking a photograph. Maybe with intensive remedial training the so called photographer might some day aspire to taking a snapshot.

I always though of them as handling like a slightly overgrown 35mm camera. Not in a bad way, as I think of my Hasselblad 503 CX with the PME prism as a slightly overgrown 35mm camera in handling. On the other hand I think of the RB67 as a truss buster.

Are these collector prices or melt down prices? Which would be illegal.

Today the Jobo lift arm replacement came from CatLabs, after a fight about who was the boss, the replacement arm gave in and got into place and allowed me to attach the retaining screw. Thank you to those who referred me to CatLabs in another thread.

If I got into Daguerreotypes, could I become a mad hatter from the mercury?

Similar to my putting a paper towel on the lowest corner of the film to draw off water. And it can draw off the excess quickly. Try it, you may like it.

When I joined APUG I became convinced to trade in the inherited Mamiya C330f with three lenses and every accessory in the known world for the Hasselblad, for one of many reasons that the prices were too good to ignore: bodies from $200US to $400US and most lenses from $400UD to $800US.

And if you had asked him, he would have told you how great cars they were.

So at sometime in the future the coin collections I made as a child may actually become worth something?!?

Well, maybe, maybe if I find a mirror lens for the Nikon at a price that I have trouble walking away from, I will consider it.

That is what 1/500, 1/1000 and higher are for. Also many lenses have f/22 and some ever f/32. Heck I even have a lens with f/64 on it.

Just like the Packard motor car advertisement said, "Ask the man that owns one."

In over 60 years of using 35mm slr cameras I have never felt a the need to change the view finder. The cost versus benefit just does not pay off for most photographers, amateur or professional. In MF the there is a payoff for changing view finders because the stock view finder is a Waist Level...

Nah, since the OP will just end up with the best at the end, he should just start with a Hasselblad and slowly add to his array of lenses. That way he will not have to buying and selling cameras working his way up. Then when he get to the point that he is contemplating a FlexBody or an...
