Happy Hassy

Top notch picture, Michael. I gotta stop reading these MF threads. :)

Thanks Andrew......sometimes when I am leaving my house it's hard to decide whether I am going to take the Leica m6ttl or the Hasselblad 501cm with a meter on my belt...either way, I am going to have a good time....MF is fun....cheers.....Michael

I absolutely adore my 503CW/80CFE. It has a solidity and integrity that I've never found in any camera other than my Leica Ms.

I'm off to Tuscany and unfortunately, the Hassy's staying at home: a combination of British Airways luggage restrictions and girlfriend's inability to pack light means my MP and TX2 (XpanII) are coming along instead :mad:

Anyway, here's a few from my (rather large) baby.

urban_alchemist: Absolute wonderful photos !! #2 is my favorite, like a classic documentary street shot !!

I know that problem, having to decide between the Hassy and the Leica... Fortunately my wife tolerates my obsession ... :D:p

Some recent photos (500 C/M, various films):

I've been having problems focusing w/ my 500 cm so I just bought the Acute Matte D so hopefully it will improve. I'm also going to bring it to my trip to Alaska so I'm excited. Here are some of my photos..

Hi Michael,

that building is the JR tower in Sapporo (JR = Japan Railways), the main station and shopping center.

Hasselblads are :cool::cool:

I took my Hasselblad out yesterday around Bangkok, I almost forgot how fun it is to use as a street camera....good times, good times.......I should leave my Leicas at home more often......cheers, michael
