Hi,
Jimmy Schoster here! I am a Hasseblad 503cw user since the fall of 2006 and just joined the forum. This is my first medium format camera and I wanted it to be one of the best. I love film and I also use Nikon and Leica rangefinder cameras as well as one Contax NX camera with a 100 mm Macro lens. I use the Zeiss Contax lens for macros I can't get to with my Hassy otherwise I use the Hassy with the 120 mm Makro-Sonnar lens and bellows as well as extention tubes for the real close shots. I have to do a sort of "studio" setup when I use the Hassy system and bellows since there is a lot of gear. I also use the Hassy macro flash system TTL which is awesome. I scan all of my negs with a Hassy 343 scanner into Photoshop and I use photoshop to fix up any details that need fixing or resizing, etc. I print with an Epson Stylus Pro 4800 using their archival ink but I use the Image Print software for image printing on various papers rather than the Epson software. I have my film processed professionally, so that is about the only thing someone else does for me. I cut my own matts and do my own framing if requested.
I do have a burning question but perhaps I should ask this elsewhere in the forum?
Here it is:
I have a Hasselblad bay 60 polarizing filter and a Hasselblad bay 60 yellow filter. I would also like to use these filters on two other cameras; Nikon F with a 60mm threaded lens end and a Contax Zeiss lens with a 72mm threaded end lens. Is there an adapter that would allow me to put the Hassy Bay filters on each of the lenses (I would of course need two adapters)? It would be a 60mm thread to bay 60 and a 72 thread to bay 60 adapter.
Thank you so much and I look forward to this forum!
