Another classic camera ceases production - the Hasselblad 500 series of cameras: http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/pho...em-cameras
To me, together with the Leica M and the Rolleiflex these are the real cameras of an era now gone by. A bit like the Violins of Photography. I am wondering whether this is now dead-dead or whether we will see it come back as high prised collector item (as we did for Rolleiflexes and Leica Ms: http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/pho...em-cameras http://uk.leica-camera.com/photography/m..._la_carte/ ) we will see.
