They are well used, battered, traveled, and have more than paid for themselves. Maybe I will keep them for sentimental reasons. I can't make up my mind ! Just recently sold my Hasselblad 500 and other camera gear through www.ffordes.com on commision - I have no association with them other than they are very good to deal with.

Keep at least one of them for sentimental reasons. If I could get medium format film in Nicaragua and chemistry for developing, I might regret having sold the set of two bodies, four backs, and three lenses more. This was a scan from before selling everything and moving to Nicaragua: I really loved medium format Fujichrome Acros in Diafine, scanned on my Epson flatbed scanner. Never did optical enlarging but had some from a 4x5 Calumet view camera done by the last photofinisher in Philadelphia that still did that work.

Nigel I have made a note of Ffordes. Thanks for that. I see the Hasselblad Xpan's are going for a good price ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital isn't quite the same. Glad I did lots of it in college tho, and a little at home too (although the limescale at home was quite noticeable on the negs !). Nice array of tones in your picture above. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
