At 1:06, Apollo used Hasselblad cameras derived/modified from the 500 EL, Gemini used modified 500C:s (in part thanks to Wally Schirra).

Hi!! I'm super excited I stumbled upon your video 😊. I've always been super interested in photography and now I'm wanting to delve into film photography. I don't know anything about film photography or cameras in general, but I'm a quick study! Also, bonus, I inherited my grandfather's Kodak Retina III!!! If you have any recommendations for courses I can take or videos to watch or anything info you can offer would be amazing! Also, no idea if the camera still works? Thank you in advance!!! 🙏🏻 📸

Nice video

Great video! Please adjust your white balance, my good man... It's driving me nuts!!! 😂😂😂

very cool. I'm from chanute, ks.

I definitely tried to tell you that you loaded the film in wrong through the screen, came here because you told me to comment. Great way to boost engagement though lol

Great video! Through-the-lens metering IS available. Hasselblad made a whole series of prism finders with meters, for years.

I have one, I sell it

Could be the screw for tripods is 3/8ths and a standard 1/4” won’t work. Adapters are cheap

A 'Blad and a Minolta Flashmeter IV is a good combo. I ALWAYS have a strap on mine.

I just bought a 4/5 Speed Graphic. About a 1942 model from a collection. I wanted it for scenic’s. I love the fact that I can hand hold this 4/5 with a 3 cell flash. Looking for filters especially red that I can use. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciative.

You might have just saved me some money. I have the IIIc and was under the impression that the viewfinder on the big C was also brighter. I guess I just assumed by looking at the front of it and seeing the bigger window. Not the case? My little c is basically perfect condition and is my travel camera. Focusing is just a tad difficult in low light.

Oh my mistake … I was just referring to setting my iso ….example cinestill 800 t which I have waiting in my fridge .. I can ask the lab to push it right I got it 😅 thanks Tommy

Hi Todd , love your videos man. I have a mamiya 645 1000s and when it comes to pushing film I’m confused because I don’t have ISO setting on it ? Unless I can’t find it ? Help please 🙏 thanks Tommy

So cool 😎

Very cool photos man great video and story Keep on shooting on Thanks Tommy

Really cool video man … I’ve recently purchased a mamiya 645 1000s which I’m in love with … no really I am that shutter sound kills me … ! I’ve only just sent my first test roll to the lab I’m so extra see what it has produced … hopefully one decent shot … I have a boring question I see you can set ISO on the Hassy. I can’t on my mamiya which kind of throws me a little as I’m used to setting film speed and somehow it makes me feel safe .. do you set iso or just shoot with sunny 16 or meter your shots ? Keep on shooting on . Coolest regards Tom. Ps. Deep down I’m pining for a Hasselblad which I will get for sure this Christmas 🎄.

great info thank you!

I wish someone would review and explain the metered prism view finder

These cameras are heavy but can be used hand held. The photographer that photographed “Bliss” which was the popular windows wallpaper was shot on the Mamiya RZ67 which is also a large camera. I equate it to a large format camera without the movements.

I heard chris had retired and there isnt any real technicians left but he did leave video turorials for these

Wow! BNow we know where the RB67 came from.

This is a nice camera I can’t even afford a Kiev 88 so I am stuck with a holga lol

When you buy additional magazines, later versions have a pocket for keeping the darkslide. All magazines from the 1600F, all the way to the last 205, SWC and EL cameras are interchangeable. So it is not a 500C limitation. 😉 Thanks for your video. Yes, when I upgraded to Hasselblad from other medium-format cameras, there was no turning back. 🤝

No tripod! Honestly, go back home! I see no point, in this! None!

I’m buying one tomorrow! Thanks for sharing this video 😊

Here you go. Subscribed and now a comment. I am a collector-user and have several nice Retinas-I favor the smaller folding models. And the Automatics, they aren't that small but because they work well and are jewel-like.

The RB67 is a great camera system. I use one for portraits and a second one for product shots. I use the following lenses: Mamiya-Sekor C 50mm f/4.5 (77mm filter) Mamiya-Sekor C 90mm f/3.8 (77mm filter) Mamiya-Sekor C 140mm f/4.5 macro (77mm filter) Mamiya-Sekor SF C 150mm f/4 (77mm filter) Mamiya-Sekor C 180mm f/4.5 (77mm filter) Mamiya-Sekor C 250mm f/4.5 (77mm filter)

Came across your channel while I CLA'd my IIIc, IIIS, Reflex 4, and Reflex S. Love them all. Your concert pictures were impressive. Do you remember what film stock/speed you shot?

Also, Bruce Fleming used the 500c to photograph Jimi Hendrix first LP cover. Also to add, Bruce Fleming is also mentoring me in my photographic journey!🎉

I have both a 500C and a 503CX. The 500C and I have a long history. I got it from a family friend in 1977 but my mom used it to take my High School Graduation year book pictures in 1969. Our friend's had a small studio and they allowed my mom to use both it and the 500C. By 1977 they were out of the business but someone had broken into their home and took most of their equipment but left the 500C. So they made me a deal that I couldn't turn down. It has taken so many meaningful pictures for me that I'd really break down and cry if anything happened to it. So that's why I have the 503CX. The 500 stays close to home and the 503 goes on road trips and extended vacations. There is just something to about the feel and sounds of using a 500 series Hasselblad that is hard to rival.

Do you have any info on then Leica Nr.814156 GMBH D8P

It is all good while it works good. I just bought mine in a perfect shape and now I see it’s a bit broken , the red lines are not moving away when I rotate the back and also I have problems with film winding, rewind lever gets stuck

very nice.... I am having same model.

An option is to get a laminar flow hood and put scanner in hood and handle negatives in the hood, the hood blows HEPA filtered air out so you have a very clean area to work. Expensive but maybe an option. You can DIY a hood but the filter must be purchased commercially.

I love to own one IIIG…

If you buy an RB, you had better like it because it may be impossible to wear one out. I have two. I bought my first one when they first came out and after 32 years in a studio, it is still working perfectly. I bought the 2nd from a photographer who decided to go digital and made me a deal I could not refuse.

a bit of carnauba wax will make those dark slides slip right in and out.

I love the way you compare cameras with cars.

Bla bla Bull shit

Hi Todd which lenses do you recommend for landscape with this camera ? Thx in advance.

You can buy a darkslide holder which sticks onto the back of the magazine.

I discovered this camera today. Just wow! Going to get one!

Good stuff, I also shoot with a 4x5 Chamonix and digi scan my negatives with my Fuji X-Pro3 using my 80mm Macro lens, I still find fun in seeing the negative come alive in PS or Lightroom. 👍🏼👍🏼

Push the darkslide in holding the edges close to the slot.

Great video

What a great, informative video. Thanks

Great video! Eckman comments on the spool size issue. It looks as though you didn't encounter any problems here?

👍👏

Your video makes me want to shoot again with my Retinette IIb . Btw. The Retina II or III was the camera that was taken for the Antarctica expedition which can be seen in the book " Hellbent for the pole".
