anybody here letting go of a 50mm cf fle?
i have an interesting suggestion.
everyone here willing to swap lenses for experiments, try it out or just for shoot.
we can list out the lenses we have like freddie kang... we can give each other a call whenever we want to borrow or rent some hasselblad equipments?
we will save a lot of money!!!
what you guys think?

I have an opportunity to buy a new Hasselblad 2000FCW kit, body, 80mm F2.8 F lens and A12 back. How does it compare with the 500 series.
I do not know where to find the 503CW or 501CM and their cost, but they definitely cost more. They also have improved internal light absorption coatings and the accute-matte D screen and future digital back compatibility. Would it be better to go for the 500series cams instead? Also, does it make sense to go for MF film today when it seems that processing costs are going up?
It would be nice if you could share the gear you're using as well besides the owners so that we can get an idea on what's popular.

IMHO, the most popular probably would be the 500 series, of different variations, more available in the used market. I myself use a 503CW, with the add-ons.
The 2000 series have a focal plane shutter, while the 500 have a leaf shutter. One will need some ND filters with the 500 series
More info here, author implicitly (in my opinion at least) does not recommend 2000 series, but the 200 instead :
http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/index-frameset.html?Hasselblad200.html~mainFrame
Money-wise, it doesn't make sense to go into film, if one shoots a lot (some will argue against that, but this is my experience).
I belong to the camp that believes film has a quality that is still unique and not matched by digital no matter how much it is pp'ed - again, more arguments will be raised against that but no time for that, it is my opinion and experience. Hence, my main reason to use a lot of film, not because I like the work involved or that I like the anticipation of waiting to see the results.
However, it's still just another medium, and I use it in conjunction with a dslr too. Even a Holga, pinhole or some archaic cameras have their uses, particularly for artistic stuff. Artistic low-resolution like those from one of my favorite photographers, her work is great (to me) => http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristmas_klousch/. And to quote her :
"although I really appreciate the feedback I have received I am more content to do my own thing and not worry if my images are popular according to anyones standards but my own --"
wise words ...

I was at the Hasselblad Service Centre on Tuesday. Hasselblad is asking whether there will be Hassy gathering soon. Seems they're interested to meet all the Hassy owners as well...so how, any chance of a Hassy gathering soon?
ayo, ask them to sponsor the gathering lahhh.. can do it at shangelilah hotal ;p
But no promises ;pThey also carry Gitzo, can ask for discount lehh? heheee

Hi, thanks for replying.
I read up more and the 500-series is quieter and the 2000 series has this problem where the titanium shutter can be damaged unlike the 200-series silk/rubber curtain and replacements are expensive, limited or unavailable. However I was offered a good price on it and there's the 110mm F2 glass...
I also agree that digital can't replace film. Its not about resolution or graininess, its just the way it looks. Maybe its the mid-tones maybe its the texture from grain. Have to think more about the cost though..
A nice photo
