I was going to ask the moderator to give some direction on how to manage resolution of conflicting points of view, and how to judge merits of posts on forum.

Seeing this post, I searched emails, and found two most recent from Hubbell to be in Junk emails...and therefore missed responding...

I purchased the Flexbody to use with my CFV 50c.  I never used the film option.  I stated that clearly. I bought it with camera body, correction slides, and focusing screen, but never used them.  The Flexbody is like a mini view camera, and when used with the CFV back, allows easy live view, ability to use a range of V lenses, ability to place plane of focus, and option to use the leaf shutter in the lens instead of electronic shutter.

In order to bring this to a resolution, I will refund the full purchase price upon return:  fully functioning Flexbody, correction slides, and focusing screen in original boxes, Hasselblad Pro shade and adaptor, cable release, and cable for connection of CFV back to V lenses.

I could add more, but will pass.  I have not changed by business practices: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/feedback/181427

Good morning all,

Has anyone used the above on the XD2 and, if so, what are you views on it?

Many thanks.

Kind regards,

There should be a screw which can be tightened. Can you post a photo of that focus handle, to see which type it is?

The lenses / 50mm cf with focus "arm" issue
Last post by davecarrera - May 15, 2024, 06:00:08 PM
Hello All
first post so please be gentle lol.
I have a 50mm f/4 cf which to my uneducated eye seem to have have the focus ring replace with a "arm" or lever with "Hasselblad one" written on it.
It looks like it is a true item as it were because the ring has "half moon" shapes that match up with the lens metal body it slips onto.
My issue is that it slips off easily making it close to unusable for focusing and I wondered if you guys might have a working solution other than superglue.
It seem to originally have some kind of foam strip inside the ring which has perished leaving just the residue.
Wishing you well and happy shooting

I have just had this response from Hasselblad:

'to pair the X2D with MacBook or any computer devices you need to use the USB cable. The Wi-Fi is aim to pair the camera with your Iphone or Ipad.'

Hi Matt,

Just to update - I sent the lens back. I also noted that the rubber was losing its stickiness to the zoom ring.

It works on mine without problems. Have you tried rebooting both machines? Also, are you running current versions of software on both?
