Transcript of this video:

Hi, I'm John Harrington and we're going to break out and break down the wide variety of equipment we use to deliver images to our clients. Next we are going to show you one of the equipment kits we use when we are traveling on assignment. Each kit is different and has a very specific purpose. So lets take a look.


This is our Hasselblad kit. Gotta blow a little dust off the Hasselblad kit, we haven't used the Hasselblad in a long time.

In our Hasselblad though and something I haven't gotten to the point where I can part with yet, our SWCM allows us to shoot architectural work. An original 500 CM with a handgrip on it. Battery still works, still takes the picture.

2 Polaroid backs, redundancy on the Polaroid backs. This is our 500 ELM with the old school waist level viewfinder. Several A12/A24 backs, 1 2 3. We have an 80mm/F2.8 T Star. One of my favorite lenses, the 30mm/F3.5 fisheye, a 120mm/F4, extension tube, an old back.

You can see that ones definitely been used a lot. And that's what remains of our Hasselblad kit. Like I said, a little bit dusty, we haven't used the Hasselblad in a while.

@N6600 Yes, there is a Digital back for the different 500 models. I just think the Digiback comes in at around 10000€ used on ebay... you can get a good set of digital 35mm full fram equipment for that monny. :-D

@AlbertoAntonio6 I don't have a hassy, but I have a Mamiya RZ67 that I do use all the time, 3-4 times a week.

Hasseys do have removable backs, right? One of my mentors has a digital back for his Hassey, and he can still use it for his advertising shoots. No need to just shelf the Hasselblad like this..
