One thing I'm >looking >forward to is using my Hasselblad lenses on this body with one of >those >Zorkendorfer mounts (even shifts!). It is heaven. When I had my old R4 I also had Hasselblad. As I remember I had the 150, 250 and 500 lenses for it. I had a Hassy to Leica R adapter. Used to shoot with the 500, I think it was an f8 (?), don't really remember. It was a big dude on the Leica, but the picture was right out of the middle of the Hassy lens - sharp as a tack. Got some great pics before I broke my back (figuratively speaking) carrying it around. All the Hassy lenses, including the 80, worked great on the Leica. Not a bad idea if you don't have the Leica lens and it is not one you would use a lot. Richard Hemingway Norman, OK
