The reason I missed focus was that I was traipsing with him. I was carrying a lot as well, it was quite warm and fairly humid, and the droplets of sweat were getting into my eyes!

If true, we'll never know is whether Kodak modified a 500C to trigger electrically and that became the 500EL, or whether they built it on a prototype 500EL (assuming it was electrically advanced, which is likely), or whether they were entirely independent activities. It is an interesting coincidence that the 500EL prototype showed up in 1963 - the same year the KH-7 first flew!
Consult your favorite research resource if you want more info on the star field cameras using on the KH-7 and thereafter.

I was relieved they we both managed to not trip and fall over those roots!
Missed focus aside, the scale is impressive!
Or a 60, 100, and 180
Maybe you could sell Andy some of your excess Hasselblad gear at a reasonable price to get the poor lad started on his way?????I started with a 50/80/150 lens combo and now I also have the 60/100/180 combo... I feel I prefer the 60/100/180 but it would be easy to work with either, TBH.
the 60 works better with the SWC/M or the 40 IMO. The 180 works better with the 350 as well...
Goodness, I have sooo much Hassy gear now.

50-80-150 is perfect. So is any other combination, but no reason not to go with that most classic of lens combinations.
I have a Pentax 67 and I really like the 2 zooms. Between the 55-100 and the 90-180 I have everything covered. These are modern designs, so excellent performing lenses.50-80-150 is perfect. So is any other combination, but no reason not to go with that most classic of lens combinations.
Given the choice and having the funds... Add a 40mm FLE on the short end and it is a dream-setup if the focal length suit you
Well you’re in luck!
Speaking subjectively, the only benefit of a 500 series Hasselblad is size, literally everything else is a compromise, with the exception of a few specific lenses.
I have several Mamiya's, but they are all TLR's, and rangefinders... I want an SLR.
The 250 was the Earth Rise lens right?
