Thanks to everyone for attention and unnecessary high prise. Square is an awesome

composition limit. Tilts would like to have as an option. Hassy died after splash of salt

water through a cabin window in a storm. Service clean it up for lots of euro but then it

has started to jam. So far the choice is again hassy 500 or 503 with additional flexbody.

Mammy and pentax lens are cheap but nowhere near Zeiss. RFlex is a bit too electronic

and thus sensitive. So still no decision. Would like to hear from someone that travel as well

shot people with Horsemann. Also how is Alpa? Thank you for your answers.

Gentlemen,

Could sound as a silly question, but vital for your obedient servant. What to buy next? Last

4 years shot with Hassy. Broke it twice with too much travel bags. Got Leica MP and do

enojoy the light weight and enspirational quality. Feel that still want and miss to shot a

larger

format with control of a depth of field. Needs something that offer great optics but light

weight to carry. Hassy again? Or should take a cross of a clap like Horsemann or super

beauty of Alpa. Money is affordable. Need an enjoyable tool & a realiable companion in

long travels. Your advice will oblige.

 

Sincerely yours,

Alexei Gourianov

Leica is awesome art tool. Exposure meter is soooo acurate. Just need a scaner and time to

share results.

Thanks everybody. Flash looks cheap and artificial on MP. So far going with ISO 3200 at

any low light. Makes things old fashion but alive. Will share some shots soon. Long live the

real photography! 8-)

Gentlemen,

Would you be so kind to teach me best way to shoot MP with flash (which?). All manual,

right?

Thank you in advance.

 

With best regards,

Alexei

So we have our little Russian corner, don't we? Hope that new MP will work. Seriously clap

like horseman or linhof cardan are dreams to desire. Will miss hassy though. 8-)

by next weekend I hope still need to frame photos

moscow near lubyanka

Cameron, do I know you in person? Thanks for remembering my shots. There will be a

small exhibition in Spago cafe on B. Zlatoustinski 1. come and have a look

Thinking about Alpa for serious work, or horseman, hassi broke twice this year after 3

years of use. Leica for everyday

Cameron, Good knowledge of russian, whaz up?

Thanks everybody!

Sorry for stupid Q but MP does not have TTL, so filter factor should be adjusted manually?

 

It is so light vs. hassel, goes anywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-) happy owner

Thanks to everyone for the wisdom. Got 180 as a choosen present from friends. fantastic lens! Sharp as the razor with the just right latitude for portraits.

Thanks!

Epson 3200 offers best price, scan quality and ability to scan also originals & 35mm in rows. Highly recommended!

Can someone explain the difference of the effect using extension

tubes 16E, 32E and 56E with 180mm lenses? Should one buy all three or

32E should be sufficient? Thank you in advance.

 

With best regards,

Alexei

Please advice whether it is safe to mount the Hasselblad body, as the

lenses is rather heavy. At the same time the lens has no means to

attach it to tripod.

 

Your advice will oblige.

 

With best regards,

Can anyone recommend a circular macro flash for Hasselblad lenses, if

there is one? Your guidance will oblige.

 

With best regards,

Alexei

On numerous times shot at -25-27 Celsius with CM 501. Never had any problems even with 1/2, 1/4 speed. So my advice to go for mechanical Hasselblad at cold conditions. But keep a light meter inside your second jacket. �º

Many thanks to everyone for wisdom. I will follow up by purchasing 150CF.

Would you be so kind as to recommend one of two lenses (150 vs. 250)?

80mm is the prime lens for me but feel limitations of it, when doing

close up portraits. Would like lenses that should allow effective use

with street photography. $ is restricted otherwise would buy both.

 

Your assistance will oblige.
