A Hasselblad, more than 40 years after first looking.

Many thanks Richard -- that 135mm Sonnar is a heck of a lens.

The pix you make with it are so good that when I came across a kit, lens and bellows as well as the transparency holder I just couldn't stop my self.

Are yours for the 500 series? Mine’s for the 1000f/1600f. I got mine for a really great price, along with the original box and instructions.

The only thing about using the bellows outside is that any little breeze will throw your subject out of focus. So a lot of trial and error!

The listing just said Hasselblad, I assumed they all fit each other. Got the kit for $499 plus shipping. Pix of it looks like new. The transparency holder has a broken off screw which I am sure I can fix. Should it not be for the 500, I'm pretty sure I can get my investment by selling it.

Found this in some olde papers I have around. This became the Hasselblad Ringlight in the V camera era. Many were modified with different power packs available.

There was some nice back light and I felt compelled to get out the macro tubes and shoot these on film.

“Felt compelled.” That’s exactly it. Great result. Thanks.
