this shot was taken during our family vacation at Boracay for me and my daughter's birthday celebration (late post - October 2019).
It's time I told you the truth. Is the Fujifilm GFX100s medium format camera really any good for landscape photography?
After shooting with it daily for two weeks I've learned all about the limitations of this pricey camera. It's time to give you the honest scoop.
Rather than a snooze fest of a review, I take you on an adventure up to Lake Agnes and Little Beehive in the spectacular scenery of Lake Louise.
I dodge repeated attacks from a dive-bombing 'camp robber', struggle to be heard over the noisy crowds but STILL managed to come away with an absolute banger...or maybe even two.
Brent takes his new identity to a whole new level and it seems I now have a new 'Number One Fan', but she's kind of demanding.
Will we purchase an overpriced instant coffee and a stale muffin at the tea house? Will I ever get used to 'Fabien' Brent's alter ego and which dog are we taking home with us?
There's only one way to find out.

Having spent a sleepless night screwed up in the back of a Ford Focus because all accommodation on the island was full due to a folk music festival I crawled out at dawn to be met with this scene. I had arrived in the dark and had no idea what would be near my car in the morning.

Ultimando algunos pequeños detalles en los cuadros grandes de Gran Formato, cuando la pintura es de medidas respetables por su tamaño, siempre encuentras alguna cosita que has de encajar mejor en el conjunto de la obra, ya que lo más importante será la visión global del cuadro y ahora es el momento del repaso para pulir y finalizar.

Let me introduce you to my “holy grail” camera: The Hasselblad 500C/M medium format film camera with the Carl Zeiss leaf shutter design f/2.8, 80mm Planar lens.
www.hasselblad.com/about/history/500-series/
As a fan of the Apollo missions to the Moon, I was always enthralled to know that these Hasselblads (with slight modifications) took all the great photographs we have seen from the surface of the moon. www.hasselblad.com/about/history/hasselblad-in-space/
Designed by Victor Hasselblad (1906-1978) in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1957, this modular camera has become the benchmark for medium format photography. Today, Hasselblad digital cameras continue the legacy of camera precision of engineering and clarity of vision. They are expensive for a very good reason.
The 500 series film cameras are very different from most other cameras. By virtue of their modular nature (more about this in a moment) in 2006 Hasselblad introduced the very first digital back, that allowed it to be fitted to earlier models of the 500 series. Even today, though Hasselblad produce some of the best medium format digital cameras in the world, it is possible with the same camera to shoot both film and digital. Of course the drawback is that a digital back is way beyond my budget. But really, these cameras are best with film anyway.
Perhaps the most striking thing about the 1970 Hasselblad 500C/M is the minimalist Swedish modular design. The camera consists of four main parts: (1) The lens (which includes the leaf shutter); (2) The body with mirror and mirror-up option; (3) The waist-level viewfinder with ground glass (with an option for a prism viewfinder to be fitted); and (4) The film back or magazine.
Being able to have multiple film backs is perfect if you want to switch mid-film between colour or black and white. Just simply swap the back over. To illustrate the modular nature of this camera, my 500C/M consists of a body that was manufactured in 1986, a slightly older Zeiss lens from 1983, and currently a film back that dates from 1998. The Zeiss optics are top notch and all settings are achieved on the lens including manual focus. There is no built in light meter, but that is because the professionals (for whom this camera was made), preferred to do their own independent metering to get the best possible outcome. All in-built camera light meters tend to have their limits.
Thanks to a recommendation from Brett Rogers of Tasmania Film Photography www.flickr.com/photos/tasmania_film_photography/ I was able to purchase my camera from the trusted vintage camera dealer Peter Loy of London. www.peterloy.com/
I can't stress enough how important it is to buy vintage cameras (especially if expensive) from reputable dealers. Because of their age it is inevitable things will break, often because they have not been serviced in a while. You'll probably remember the problem I had with my Leica IIf which is now being repaired. You do need to factor in the costs of servicing when you buy.
But the pictures tell the story, so in coming days I’ll let you see some of the ones I took on Ben Lomond, Tasmania’s second highest mountain. I think you’ll agree that the combination of Kodak Gold 200 120 (6x6) film and the Hasselblad gives us exceptional quality prints. These could easily be blown up to a very large size without any loss of clarity at all. Given that I didn’t want to carry the extra weight of a tripod with me, all these photos I will show you were handheld. With a camera this size it is much easier to frame the composition on a tripod.
But don’t just take my word of praise for the 500C/M, here’s another review by Astrid Robertsson. I echo everything she says, right down to the sound the shutter makes.
