Can't keep EVERYTHING Bob … :ROTFL:Pete,
I am amazed that Marc gave up one of the best of the older Hasselblad lenses...the 40 CFE is legendary...at least in the company of my peers...
The other lens that is a standout is the 100FE 2.0 little matches it.....
New house...new focus all good...amazing how our previous world prospers without our constant oversight and input.
Warm regards,
Bob
That 40IF is an outstanding optic for sure. I originally got it at a promotional price when buying some other piece of gear. I tested it against the previous 40 and there was no comparison. A bit of distortion easily corrected in post.
My drive with the S system was to have all leaf-shutter lenses … the most recent being the CS-45/2.8, so that focal length is now covered.
Good to here from Peter A. Much missed voice on the forum.
After this past "Winter of the Century", I just secured a second home in a warmer climate.:thumbup:
So no more camera gear for a good while. More like divest, than invest going forward … but the S is immune to purges. I'll be able to make photos more months each year now, and new territory will spur that on I'm sure. Nothing like a change of venue to motive new explorations.
