Nothing on the hasselblad.se.

Bad for human beiing.
Anyway, hope the new team will stop the long suicide of "Hasselblad V" line.

I am not surprised by the the appointment of a new CEO for Hasselblad.

Maybe the new CEO will see some wisdom and allow factory tours for loyal subjects???

Hello Terry,

In the meantime Hasselblad appointed a new account manager for the V series.
I have not contacted him yet after the disappointing fisrt experience but
know the service manager for V series is very helpfull.
He also answers my emails, that is a great improvement.

Lets see how thinks develop.
When does your passport expire?

2019 should be possible.
Now we only need some excuse to visit Hasselblad in Sweden.
