Re: And now I'm really home...

Godfrey,

Still have my 500C/M, 40, 80, and 150 lenses. The SWC has always been a camera I wanted but could never justify. The kit just sits there gathering dust. I guess if I had a good...

Re: Technical Camera Images

Congratulations! Get ready for quite a ride. It seems only yesterday my eldest was born. Now he is forty years old and a full colonel in the US Air Force. I always tell him I would have a dull as...

Re: Hasselblad Lunar : they go defensive

It is a tribute to ego and turning a blind eye that Hasselblad would go forward with this project given the laughter and derision that followed the announcement of the Lunar. Hasselblad knew they...

Re: Hasselblad Owners: What's your lens lineup ?

I have the 35, 80, 100, 150, and the 35-90. The 35-90 was acquired last so my 35 is redundant. My wish list includes the 24 and the 120.

Re: epson 9900 printing ghost strips or bands

Personally, I think you are making the correct decision all around.

Re: Multishot - I wish .......

Your hatred of Phocus is a mystery to me, but you could always use Lightroom. Personally, I don't understand how Hasselblad can offer such a piece of software free. I can only surmise they do it...

Re: My humble observation

Leica website, in the technical section for the M, states startup (turn-on-time), "Approximately one second".

Re: My humble observation

That would be me! This will be my first Leica after lusting for them since I saw my first one "in the flesh" in 1970. I have been on a waiting list since early October.

Re: Portraits of Your Gear

You are absolutely right. They (two boys) may be better off with the funds from the sale of the equipment in their college fund. Who knows!

Re: Leica M in Venice

Jono,

Loved, loved, loved the series. Having been there, I know you did a tremendous job. We plan to go there again soon, and I will have my new M with me.

Re: A New MFD Strategy: Your Thoughts Appreciated.

Marc,

It seems inconceivable to me that you would abandon Hasselblad after ten years of use. Given that you can use Hassy lenses on the S2 now, it seems even even harder to understand. Your...

Re: Leica delimma I think

Your lens lineup is formidable and complete. So, I am wondering why you would even consider selling even one of those lenses.

Several years ago I vowed to never sell any camera gear ever again. ...

Re: Sean Reid's M9/MM/M240 Comparison

Excellent points. My first toe into the waters of MFD was with the Hassy CFV on my 500 C/M. If the files were opened in Photoshop they were converted to DNGs. The DNG files were awful. They were...

Re: Conundrum

If you're asking about 22 MP being a large enough file to print that large, I don't think you will have a problem. My 22 MP back prints 24X36 that completely satisfies my needs. However, others may...

He will not tell me where I am on that list either, but I am definitely not as high as you. I went to the store in DC in person and ordered it October 7th or 8th.
