look what i found.


look what i found., originally uploaded by rodinis.

I appropriated a Hasselblad 500 C/M this weekend, but it's missing a back. KEH has quite a few but they're all labeled different - some missing dark slides, some not matching their inserts, blah blah blah - and ranging from $59 to $300. I have a few bids out on EBay right now, so if nothing comes of those, I'll try my luck with KEH.

I met with John/Ham today so he could take a look at the 'blad - it's been sitting and hiding in my step-father's house for nearly 15 years. John tinkered with it a bit and loaded his Polaroid back to take a test shot (he brought his entire Hasselblad kit with him to talk shop).

The camera seems to be in great shape and I'll be putting it to good use - I've already planned to use it to take get a new perspective for my upcoming campaign series with a fashion designer. More on that at a later date.
