Hasselblad SWC is cool

Thanks, Larry; interesting shots. I encountered a similar traveling show in Klamath Falls a couple years ago. They had just set up and had almost no customers. This has to be a challenging business to run in a pandemic. I don't see any masks...

Thanks, Doug.
Yes, no masks by and large, though starting to come back a bit. There has never been any significant viral activity here, somewhat unusual given the constant influx of thousands of people from all over.. Lots of fevered chatter, very little actual fever.
It's pretty much only locals at the Fair, though.
 
Been trying to get more creative uses with the SWCM & some of the model sessions I'm booked for.
If the equipment is light enough, I'll throw the SWCM in... from a recent session!

A nice little article by Neal Rantoul and some nice images from the Superwide: https://www.nealrantoul.com/posts/the-hasselblad-superwide

Also, there's a gentleman, within an hour drive of me, who repairs 'Blads and Rollei TLRs (Barn Owl Cameras). I've never met him or used his services but I bookmarked his site just in case.

He has an eBay presence and currently offering a CLA'd '56 Superwide that looks interesting.

I bought the 1956 SWC today. The dealer/repairman's name is Jim Kilroy and he was very helpful on the phone getting me started on my SWC journey.

I've been so impressed by the photos on this thread, and I just discovered it this evening. I hope to have some images to add soon.
