Hasselblad 500 WLF Black or Chrome?

[bags27]

I have a black Blad 500 c/m with a black WLF. I get black paint flecks on my acute-matte D focusing screen. Do chrome WLFs give off flecks also? thanks!

I once had a Hasselblad chrome body and finder that threw off "glitter" like a cheap Christmas tree ornament.

It's usually the flat black paint on the inside of the WLF that flecks onto the screen...

Use a stiff-bristle brush to get rid of the flaking paint.

Yes. Chrome waist level finders can have the black paint on the folding side walls flake off.

Thanks. That's really what I wanted to know. No sense swapping out WLF's then. Just something that I have to continue to live with....

I have a WLF that I have never used. Still folded up and never attached. I have not noticed any flaking.
