Not cheap but still there.</p>

<p>Thank you for all the replies. This whole thing was sparked by a dealer here in the UK listing a near mint F1n with 55mm f1.2. GAS almost got me but common sense has kicked in. I really don't need another F1 and, already have a 1.2L and 1.4 new FD mount lenses. So I will pass on this one. </p>

<p>Thank you Jeff and Jim, I had forgotten all about the Canon Museum. The lens I am looking at can be identified as an early 71-73 f1.2 not SSC coated. So that poses more questions, any good optically and is it worth anything? </p>

<p>My question is, how many breechlock variations of the 55mm 1.2 lens are there? Looking on the Malaysia site shows only one but I think there might be more. Cheers.</p>

<p>The point made about activity on the FD forum ought to end the argument. Here's one more shot made with a FD camera for the simple reason I don't have a digital camera</p><div></div>

<p>Take the lens off the camera. Looking in towards the mirror you will see 2 levers in front of the mirror. One horizontal and one vertical. The lower horizontal is the stop down actuator. The vertical lever is linked to the viewfinder. With the lens still off look through the viewfinder and the round needle eye should be central on the scale. Sounds like you have the lens set to A when mounted in which case, the needle eye disappears. </p>

<p>Oopps messed that up, try to find Q.G. <strong>de Bakker who I think is involved with the linked site and also is on photo.net. That guy seems to know a lot about Hasselblad</strong></p>

<p>The CRIS voltage adapter is the best way to go with the early model F1 or F1n. Finding a good camera that doesn't need a CLA might not be all that easy though. A CLA plus camera purchase plus CRIS will probably come close to the cost of repairing the camera you already own. Look up the various forum posts about wein cells they have limitations.</p>
