Hi Jim,

     The Hasselblads I've used were the 500C and the 500EL.  Hasselblad's
got the SCW though you could buy that as a stand alone.  Hasselblad's
got the FLEX body, Rollei's got the discontinued SL66 with different
lens mount and bellows/focal plane shutter.

      Isn't Rollei's 6008i with TTL flash metering?  What's Hasselblad got
there?

                                                Cheers,


Rich Lahrson
