That's clever.

Quote from: Thyl on May 16, 2024, 07:25:28 AMThe FE lenses do not have a leaf shutter, so the simple answer is no.

The term "auxilliary shutter" came to my mind, since I believe remembering that this shutter (right in front of the film mag) can be used in certain situations (microscopy?). But I found no info on this, and in any way, usability would be drastically limited.

I wonder if it might work with the electronic shutter of an CFV 50II/100c.

It works but only useful with a solid tripod an a subject that does not move during the the readout about .3 seconds.

Because I don't trust the lugs connection, I decided to use a Berlebach Speedy (with the appropriate carrying strap) that I can clamp to the Peidro Arca plate.

Thanks for the clarification John.

Good evening all,

I am finding the strap that comes with the camera quite fiddly. Has anyone found a non-Hasselblad strap that seamlessly works with the camera?

Many thanks.

Kind regards,

Paul

Is the Hasselblad Carl Zeiss Tele-Tessar 350mm f/4 FE T* compatible with the 500CM body?

Same here.

My bad! I didn't realize you were talking about the Mac! I was referring to the mobile devices too... Sorry for the confusion!

Quote from: polychloros on March 09, 2024, 09:48:39 PMAn XCD 35mm F4 (or even F5.6 if it meant even better optical quality) would be something I would buy. The 28P is a bit wide for my taste and seems optically compromised more than other lenses in the XCD range.

Responding to my own post from March, I've been using the 28P for a couple of weeks now and think I was wrong on both counts. I actually find the wide view quite satisfying for the casual landscapes I like to take (at least the ones not involving mountains and other views with more distant subjects) and, optically, the lens is excellent. There is a certain amount of focus shift with this lens but, once aware of that, you can allow for that when composing and focussing a photograph. I no longer want a 35P.
