Novoflex Bellow for Hasselblad, New

[boojum]

OK, I just found this: Auto Bellows Hasselblad X | BAL-HAX

Has anybody seen one? What did you think. If you did not see one, what did you think?

What's not to like. I have two Novoflex BAL-S bellows in regular use. Both are about 50 years old and still work without problem. Even better, I still can get fitting accessories new from Novoflex. And their customer service is great. Ask a question and you get a competent answer within a day.

Great news. Other companies could learn.

Hadn't seen that before, but it looks great. I've had a good bit of Novoflex equipment over the years, and it is always top notch.

I'd love a set those bellows, but I don't know if I'd use them enough to warrant the purchase. Right now, I use my V-system 120mm Makro-Planar or 80mm Planar, and extension tubes, when I need such close up capabilities, and it is sufficing for my present activities.
