ulrik_neupert Posted March 3, 1998 Share Posted March 3, 1998 I would like to know if it is possible to use Kiev magazines with Hasselblad 500 bodies, maybe with some modifications. Thanks for input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a._t._seliotis Posted March 3, 1998 Share Posted March 3, 1998 Sorry, the Kiev backs do not work on Hasselblad 500 cameras. I have both and no such luck. Perhaps the Kiev back might fit on an old Hassy 1600 or 1000 camera but I seriously doubt it. <p> Good luck, <p> Athanasios T. Seliotis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c.u._volp Posted March 4, 1998 Share Posted March 4, 1998 Ulrik - Kiev made RFH's for Hasselblads until recently. Basically, they were modified Kiev 88 magazines. I saw them advertised in Germany for DM 298 a couple of years ago, but apparently they've been discontinued. Maybe you are lucky and find some second-hand.

bob_peak Posted April 17, 2001 Share Posted April 17, 2001 Hi, I just bought a Kiev 88cm and also bought an Hassy 70mm back to use on the 88cm. I had to use a piece of sandpaper to sand down an edge on the gear slot (about a micron) and now it works beautifully. bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s._fisher Posted April 17, 2001 Share Posted April 17, 2001 http://www.kievcamera.com/ sells 6x6 120 "new technology" Kiev backs for Hasselblad for $120. I was considering it until I found a used Hasselblad back for $160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
