Spent my British Government Pension 'Lump Sum' in 2002 on a HASSELBLAD outfit after deciding for about 40 years whether to take the plunge ! I did a few Weddings and just about got my money back before all the work stopped, as nobody wants 'FILM' Photos any more ! I got the Pentaprism viewfinder free with the basic 501CM and 80mm f2.8 CFE Planar T* lens and A12 back, then added a 50mm f4 CFi Distagon T* and 180mm f4 Cfi Sonnar T* later, with two A16 and one A24 back - the A12 back leaked light as did the
