I´d like a Hasselblad 500CM again..someday

I had a great looking black Hasselblad 500CM but I never liked the lens I had for it. I had the Carl Zeiss Planar T* 100/3.5, a great lens I believe for studio and product shooting, really sharp at 1m distance but it was not a good allround lens. I should have tried to get the standard 80mm but I sold the camera and bought a Contax RTS II instead. I was also always scared to scratch my Hassy or something, it was in almost new condition, made in 1991. I would like to try a Hassy again someday, I really love the feel and the sound. Right now I will put my focus on my two new cameras, Pentax MX and Mamiya M645.

Here are a picture taken with that camera:

Grandparents

I like this picture. We were celebrating easter at my mothers place and my grandparents were there. I had a Contax RTS II back then, a beautiful black camera designed by Porsche and with four nice Carl Zeiss lenses. We took some fresh air on the balcony and I took a couple of quick shots of my grandparents there with my Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* 135m f/2.8. My RTS was loaded with Fuji Superia 200 and this picture was a 3rd price winner in the swedish Metro Photo Challenge, the people´s choice 2011 in the category "relationships". It felt nice that other people appreciated my picture and I felt it was also a little triumph for film photography!

Just have to say that I love it! Nothing new..waiting for my roll of Kodak BW400CN to be developed. I went to a camera store today in Stockholm. They had those beautiful Zeiss Ikon Rangefindercameras there behind glass. I did not ask to touch them, I am not into rangefinders right now but I love the way they look, amazing little things. I had a little chat with the owner about different films, among them Kodak Tmax 3200 wich is soon just a memeory, think ´m gonna try that film before it is out of sale. But today I just bought a roll of Agfa APX 100, it was dirt cheap. I don´t really know if I need it right now but it can be handy next summer or on a sunny day. I will put it in the fridge.
