HI, One of my friends just picked up a Kiev 88 and shot some slides along side is Hassleblad. Shot for Shot on a tripod and i really couldnt tell the difference. The colour representation was identical, the bokeh was pretty much the same and the sharpness was identical. His seems to work okay.
The only problem is the lenses arnt leaf shutters and the flash sync is only 1/30. Its also easier to focus that the Hassleblad which has an accumat screen in it.
