Many thanks - still working remotely with my iPad, so things may need tweaking when I’m back in front of the computer.

As usual, Vince, your frog and leaf are lovely!
My 907x has done more work as a copy camera than as a walkabout shooter this past few months. Fitted with the XV Adapter, V-system Macro-Planar 120mm f/4, and a couple of extension tubes as needed, it does a great job of capturing 6x6 and 6x4.5 negatives and Polaroid prints, netting beautiful raw files with great dynamic range.

- film expired for ten years
- processed as B&W in HC-110 @ EI 320
- digitized with Hasselblad 907x + Makro-Planar 120mm
(This is, to some degree, because most of my shooting lately has been on my walks around the neighborhood and bicycle rides. A more compact—and lighter—camera is simply more comfortable to walk a few miles with or have bouncing on my back as I ride. ...And because I've been obsessed with both Polaroid SX-70 and a couple of 1950s folders of late... 😉 )
Having too much fun...
enjoy!

Many thanks Godfrey - I'm trying to get to know our Canadian property better, can't think of a better way than to take pictures of it.
I'd be interested to see how scans from the 907x compare with a 'real' scanner. Right now the 907x is my main 'scanner' for my medium format negatives as well as my glass plates. So far they look good but I'd be interested to compare.

Might be an interesting comparison ... I have a roll of Ferrania P30 (35mm film) that I scanned just recently (still rendering) with the Leica CL. Perhaps I'll set up and scan a couple of frames of it with the 907x and then with the Nikon Coolscan V to see how the film scanner differs from the two different camera capture systems.
If I find the time to do it, I will. 😀

I don't normally crop like this, but I've been trying to get a good shot of this pond for a while, this crop seemed to work. I'm sure I'll be trying again to get it right.

I heard hasselblad has discontinued the 907x and
replaced it with a new model. Is that correct?

I just googled ‘Hasselblad 907x discontinued’ and nothing comes up. I suppose anything is possible, but I’d be surprised if they did so, being that the camera has only been out for a little more than one year.
Did the vapornet say what this ‘new’ camera was supposed to be? 6x6 100MP sensor perhaps!

I sincerely doubt that is a credible rumor.
Perhaps it was intended to say the 907x Special Edition was discontinued, which it was/is for some time. It was intended to be a limited production honorarium to the Apollo 11 landing in 1969, and they stopped production at about 720 units.
The standard 907x is a current production model which seems to be selling pretty well and has only been sold for something like a year so far.
