The Full Monty

August 10, 2010

The images dotted through this post are from a recent trip Monty made through Andalucia in Spain. Oh and I [...]

In the true tradition of blogging I’m going to err borrow a post from Hot Wire Digital, (hi John!). First off a quick plug for Hot Wire and specially John Williams who I had the pleasure of meeting in Orlando last year.

The eyes have it (H4D40 high ISO)

July 19, 2010

Another comedy headline, sorry about that. If you’ve read previous posts you’ll see how impressed I’ve been with the H4D40 especially with it’s high ISO performance, traditionally an area where the Nikons and have Canons ruled. Well the guys at Sunshine in South Africa have posted a comparison on their blog and the results are [...]

Thumbnail image for HCD 28mm Lens

Wide angle lenses are tough to design; they are expensive and it’s very hard to get good performance out of them. I’ve always been pretty disappointed with wide-angle performance on “35mm” DSLRs to the point where I just won’t use them. Enter the Hasselblad 28mm. I am a huge fan of the HCD 28mm lens. [...]

Hasselblad Camera profiles

June 21, 2010

What’s in a profile? Well the one on the right is Archimedes and as such is completely irrelevant to what I’m about to write. He does have a rather striking nose though doesn’t he… What I am actually going to write about are H camera profiles. I have to admit that although aware of them [...]

Hasselblad U.K (Headquarters pictured above). On some of the anglo-centric (err English) forums I regularly read, I picked up on a few rumblings about the fact that Hasselblad did not appear at the Focus show in Birmingham this year, http://www.focus-on-imaging.co.uk. Some people were saying that Hasselblad’s absence from the show (billed as “Europe’s biggest annual [...]

Hasselblad in the rain… “Are you out of your mind?”

April 1, 2010

Over the years I have shot a bunch of different stuff but these days I’m probably 95% studio. I am a terrible landscape photographer as I simply do not have the patience to seek out and wait for the right weather conditions/light especially in the ever changing weather of North Island New Zealand. With that [...]
