>What movements have an F5 or Hasselblad got perchance? I have three Hasselblads, including a Flexbody, which has limited movement. Hasselblads are, of course considered to be professional cameras, (particularly) by the wedding/portraiture professionals� and yes as a professional studio camera. I admit to being biased, but I hope to specialise in the type of photography that cannot be done with DSLRs. I have been looking for a compact camera, but AFAIK there is not a pro compact camera on the market � meaning one with remote flash and remove (electrical) trigger sockets � please tell me if there is one� consequently I have been thinking about getting a DSLR � and the DCS is currently at the top of the list. I admit being biased in that almost all the equipment I have is European. >BTW have you bought yourself a 'professional' digital back yet or are you still >sitting on the >fence I am busy trying to sell my old house, get my fianc�es house ready for sale, and sort out our my new house.

A DigiBack on the back of a Hasselblad might produce similar results to a DCS, but the DigiBack kit might look more impressive to most clients... without movements. I seek technical happiness as well as creative happiness, and I hope and expect to use my DigiBack with my Sinar and Hasselblad equipment � I bought the Sinar for movements rather than resolution. =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
