Any sugestions for storing a V system, lenses cocked or uncocked, darkslides in or out. Im not shooting with it as much as I use to, and want to go as long as I can without repair bills.
 
The Hasselblad Manual said

Lens cocked, Magazinslider in.
You can download a PDF-Manual from your V.
If you use Google you find a lot of scans ;)

I think all springs have benefit of being not under tension...so I store my lenses uncocked on 1sec and smallest apperture! Even my extention tubes are uncocked .
Allso the slide must be out the back to not flatten the internal mousse.
The reason that Hasselblad advises to cock everything is to avoid locking of the gear if one forgets to cock everything.
