This may have made its way around before, but I ran into this link today while searching for information on using a hasselblad for astrophotography:

http://www.universetoday.com/88891/astronauts-photography-manual/

It is the manual for NASA astronauts on how to use their hasselblad. You can download the pdf.

A fun read! Enjoy

At least there are two older threads on this ...

I like that "Obtaining the Most Effective Images" part.
