The amateurs are in good company: Hasselblad _only_ makes 645. The 500
series is no longer in production. Their current camera is the H3 (Hassy's
version of the Fuji GX645AF).

What a dumb ass response. I've used a number of different medium
format cameras to do weddings including the 645 format. It was fine
for doing weddings.

I've always viewed the Hasselblad for those that had more money
than ...... There are lots of other medium format cameras with just
as fine optics that are much more cost efficient.
