Well it's not. So be surprised, the Gx645 was produced under license from Hasselblad and allowed to be sold in Japan only.As for the H-series being Hasselblad or Fuji, I would be surprised if it wasn't a Fuji camera from the outset.

That would be the case if Fuji developed the camera and sold it to Hasselblad also. The licensing could even be part of the payment for the design. I find it very unlikely that a camera like this, given the rather low production volume, was manufactured at two different factories simultaneously.Well it's not.

If you read my edit, you would see that I've corrected myself several hours ago. I must admit though, that having lived in Asia for more than a decade, I've lost many illusions when it comes to country of origin. With the rather creative claims in the Lunar marketing material, I don't take anything for granted. I've been to enough factories here in Asia producing "genuine" European and American products, with "Made in Italy by xxx" sewn in and price tag in euro attached. And I do not talk about pirated copies, but the real thing. I do wonder where the GX645 was manufactured though. Has anybody actually seen that production line in Göteborg? Just curiousThe answer of course is 'The Hasselblad H is made by Fuji' and the reason is for the cost of travelling to Gothenburg, Sweden and with permission you could see the assembly line.
Alternatively there is no odd one out. You are either 100% rational and believe none or 100% bonkers and believe them all.
It is OK to be a little bonkers of course but you might find people don't take what you say seriously.
#5 is obviously bogus because we all know Area 51 doesn't exist! :ROTFL:Elvis is alive and well!
There is a monster in Loch Ness!
Hitler is also alive and lives on the moon!
The moon landings were a hoax!
The USA have an alien spaceship at Area 51!
The Hasselblad H is made by Fuji!
Pick the odd one out. oke:
That one was created by martians for sure :lecture:Btw, I LOVE my Fuji TX2 that masquerades as a Hasselblad xpan II (actually, I really do love my xpan II)
If you just buy one already, you could move on with life.We can do better than that. There's even a video available:

Nah... $75K and no viewfinder? Even my mother's Brownie had a viewfinder. And "Electic"? This is the final proof. Even in 1969 they couldn't make proper cameras. They probably sent Mary Goodnight as a sales rep to secure the NASA delivery :loco: :ROTFL: :chug:I think this is the real LUNAR
