Could not agree more. People like me ( in the technology business) where not expecting something breath taking at Photokina. They simple had no timeSo I get maybe 42 for being 55. LOL
Oh wait, what where we talking about.
Seriously they are stepping on there on **** pile when you go on the defensive. Just let it die out, and frankly none of us are going to buy it anyway. So we really dont count, where all upset more about diluting the name and I think thats really is the bottom line for us and the thought we may never see another nickel go into MF R&D. I know almost every Hassy owner is thinking about there future in the H product line.

Hasselblad Lunar Defense – “rebranding is something really different than what we’ve done” » Echenique dot com

Oooops... I haven't seen such a screw up ever. What on earth are they smoking in Gothenburg?If it walks like a duck, swims like a duck, and actually says Nex 7 in the menu system.... lol
Hasselblad Lunar = Sony NEX-7 ? - YouTube
Well, if you have a HB rep chewing gum, when demonstrating their new camera - I think it says all there needs to be said!!!If it walks like a duck, swims like a duck, and actually says Nex 7 in the menu system.... lol
Hasselblad Lunar = Sony NEX-7 ? - YouTube
That is probably what the HB execs think.Still, it'll probably sell like hot cakes in China.
ho hum.
I can only agree to this .Consider this:
On Victor Hasselblad:
His famed career started in 1940, when a German military aeroplane was shot down over Swedish terrotory. The army found an aerial camera inside the plane, and the Royal Swedish Air Force asked Victor Hasselblad if he could ”make a camera like this?” He replied: ”No, I can make one better.”
Here is my editorial reply to both the Lunar Camera and the defense of it:

so what you are saying is we should find a zombie version of Victor, shoot down an alien spaceship over Swedish territory, hopefully they are having some cool alien MF camera onboard and we just ask zombie victor to make one and he says, I will make a better one, and voila the H6D is born!Consider this:

I think they are dead wrong on this.That is probably what the HB execs think.
Consider this without being so literal:so what you are saying is we should find a zombie version of Victor, shoot down an alien spaceship over Swedish territory, hopefully they are having some cool alien MF camera onboard and we just ask zombie victor to make one and he says, I will make a better one, and voila the H6D is born!
Looking on the bright side though that must have sounded more realistic than whatever was brainstormed for the lunar camera I guess..
You make a key observation here. Hasselblad is saying they want to recapture their non-pro user base ... but when was that ever with a Hasselblad of some incredibly diminished image making ability, coated with trashy bling at a price that would make anyone think twice ?I can only agree to this .
I believe VICTOR would roll over in his grave .
"In the end, Hasselblad, with this new initiative, is hoping to attract a larger, younger audience to its range of cameras, says Peter Stig-Nielsen, Hasselblad's director of professional camera products. "I've been longing to talk to a younger audience of potential professionals, and I really believe the Sony name is familiar to this audience. Sony is in the gaming industry, the music industry – things that relate to a young generation. I think the Sony brand and the Lunar product is going to help spread the message about what Hasselblad is."
Young people want fun and shoot with smart phones and P&S cameras .
They don't have much money anyway , but if , they would surely not spend it for LUNAR .
Young photographers don't have much money either and would rather buy a second hand MFD or lens instead of LUNAR .
Give us tools , NOT toys .
