    Which XCD lenses would you bring to Venice / Lake Como?

    I've found that when traveling I've far, far more often regretting taking along gear than I've regretting leaving gear behind. My aha moment was in Yosemite when the brilliant 43mm lens got stuck on my Mamiya 7, and that was all I could carry while trecking up and down. My frustration with the...

    Hasselblad 250SA and Teleconverter 1.4XE (not mutar)

    I use the SA 250 with the mutar and it's brilliant. The mutar is pretty cheap, at least mine was, and nearly a "rounding error" on the lens's price. Wondering whether there's any technical reason, besides the additional loss of an f/stop from 1.4x to2x, that this isn't your preferred solution. I...

    Technical Camera Images

    I think the Mamiya 7 is close to the perfect camera and the lenses are, indeed, extraordinary. It was my first serious MF purchase. But now the kit (all the lenses except the 50) sits in my cabinet, because I almost always pick up my Blad 500 c/m. I know the Mamiya is a "better" kit, but the...

    Fun with MF images 2024

    I'm sitting on the coach with my 2.5 year old grandson, watching Daniel Tiger, and he looks over and sees this beautiful picture. He doesn't remember, but this is the very spot where he took his first dip in life. My wife dipped him in when he was about a year old, and he was a very unhappy...

    Hello from Barcelona, Spain

    I returned last month from your beautiful city. With all the adverse publicity that Barcelona is resisting tourists, I saw none of that, only friendly and welcoming people. If I lived there, I might want to buy a technical camera and photograph all the extraordinary architecture.

    Thanks so much. I was just about to post that, indeed, HB did come through! Thanks to akaru for the kind offer.

    What to do about lost 907x & 50c protective covers?

    I must have fatally misplaced them while traveling abroad. I certainly need the 50c II cover because I frequently swap the 50c with film backs on the 500 c/m . Doesn't look like there are any available in Hasselblad land (out of stock) or on ebay. I emailed the HB mother ship in desperation; so...

    Best 1:1 macro options for digital Blads?

    Thanks! That's really impressive! I ordered a S-Planar 120mm F5.6, that should be here any day. I guess I also learned from this that f/16 doesn't have significant diffraction. Did you use extension tubes or bellows? Or does the larger physical size of the sensor not require that?

    Fun with MF images 2024

    Folks make a lot about the electronic shutter on the 907x 50c when using a non-native lens (here: Nikon 105 f/2.8 AF-D). But sometimes it's not the subject that moves; it's the photographer!

    Fun with the Sigma fp and fp L

    Those are terrific, Michael! Thanks for those and your comments. Do you use either a handgrip or the external EVF?
