F Winder experience

[fabio_scaglione]

Did anyone experienced F winder with 200 serie?

I usually handheld my 205 and I'm not sure F winder will balance

perfectly with body like CW with 503 CW.

You only can shoot with left hand; is it easy?

Thanks.

Fabio

I use this winder on my 2003 body. It works well but ads nothing to the hand holdability of the camera. It is not designed as a grip and doesn't work well as one. It is there merely to wind the film for you, which it does well.

Hello, Fabio.

 

I use a Hasselblad 205 with winder F and viewfinder PM45. I hold it with my right hand (between the thumb and the forefinger), focus with my left hand and push the release botton with my right middle finger. It's a very steady grip and much safer than the opposite way (holding and shooting with the left hand and focusing with the right hand).
