And yet I encounter minty Hasselblad 500c's and Leica IIIf's which seem to have received as much maintenance over the years--small wonder if there are a few problems: No, dry-firing the camera a few times a month does not count as "maintenance"! Spend the money to properly freshen things up and chances are, your Hasselblads will work just fine: These are very, very good cameras and not terribly expensive to own (to purchase, yes!) - -- Jeff Segawa Somewhere in Boulder, Colorado
