Greetings from South Africa!
A few years ago, I acquired a Hasselblad 500 EL/M with Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm f/2.9 as well as A12 and A16 backs, Life happened and plans to develop film and make prints never materialized.
When a Phase One P25 digital back appeared in the classifieds, I just had to have it. These things are not common in my valley and the price was right. The seller also had a Carl Zeiss Sonnar 150mm f/4 with original lens hood and I could not say no.
I am now shopping for a prism. The waist level finder that I do have is just a bit hard to get used to. The sync cable that came with the back has seen better days and the two batteries do not seem to last very long. The form factor corresponds to a Canon battery, so they should not be too hard to find.
