I'm getting close to trying out the Hy6 and 54. I'd like to hear what people think of this choice.
I shoot almost exclusively outdoors, landscapes and nature.
Before I bought my 6008i, I bought a Hasselblad manual, I think a 503. I returned it for the Rollei because I couldn't stand the ergonomics. I think the 6008 is great. For this reason, Hassie's closed system, plus I have 2 Rollei lenses, and a 45 degree prism, I'm prejudiced against Hassie, and so haven't really researched their possibilities.
If I bought the 54LV by itself the adaptor for the 6008 is about $2500 so I think it makes sense to put that money towards the Hy6.
Leaf seems out because the screen doesn't do well in outdoor light, and the back is less flexible to use on other cameras.
It seems like the 54 Lv with 22 pix and 9 micron pixels is great for all but the largest blowups.
Do you think the Focus Trap on the Hy6, could be fast enough to catch small birds in flight from 3 feet?
Am I missing something in my thinking?
I wish the Sinar was black, and better looking.
Appreciate any help.
Best,
Mitchell
