[Leica] Hasselblad point and shoot thinks its an Alpa

[henningw at archiphoto.com (Henning Wulff)]

Those Hasselblad things are a truly ugly joke. They make things like the 
various Leica Special Editions look like the epitome of restraint, taste and 
value. On the other hand, the Alpas are for real, and can do things no other 
cameras can.

See: http://www.alpa.ch/en/microsites/alpa_12_fps.html

With this, you can put a Canon 17mm TS-E lens in front of an 80Mp MF digital 
back and still have shift capability left over! No other camera, and 
certainly no Hasselblad can touch that.

If I was still doing a lot of well paying architectural jobs, I'd be all 
over that item.
