EoinC Posted July 31, 2016 Share #21 Posted July 31, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Okay so lets say I want to shoot at f5.6, I set 5.6 on the lens..........now what?? How do I set the shutter speed, will the manual meter bar in the viewfinder be working?? Easy path is to chimp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Hi EoinC, Take a look here Leica S Adapter for Hasselblad V Lens for Leica S007 Body. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted July 31, 2016 Share #22 Posted July 31, 2016 Easy path is to chimp. But do I adjust the shutter on the camera or lens and if its lens how do I re-cock the lens...............sorry for so many questions?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted July 31, 2016 Share #23 Posted July 31, 2016 Adjust what I said in #19 from f11 to f5.6 ;-) john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted July 31, 2016 Share #24 Posted July 31, 2016 As said in #19 the lens leaf shutter does nothing - all will make sense when you get your adapter - I really have no idea how you have made a simple/dumb adapter into such a long thread ;-) john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay I think i've got it. Make sure 180 lens is cocked Make lens up to adapter make lens and adapter up to the S007 Switch on S007 Set the camera to M Set the F# on the lens to say f5.6 Set ISO on camera to whatever adjust the camera shutter to whatever the meter in the viewfinder say Focus the lens and take pictures Chimp and chimp some more, until the picture and histogram look the dogs Please say that is correct?

John McMaster Posted July 31, 2016 Share #26 Posted July 31, 2016 Makes no odds if lens is cocked or not as shutter does not fire but other than that, yes you've got it ;-) john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I alway use A rather than M .... the meter will adjust for the aperture on the lens. Focus wide open then stop down for DOF. As it is difficult to see and focus if the F stop is 8 or 11 Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 1, 2016 Share #30 Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) Apologies, it is so many years since I had an un-cocked Hasselblad lens off the camera that I forgot ;-) john No need to apologize ... as you remember if the shutter is not cocked you will jam the lens on attempt to insert to body as the groove in the small pin on the back will not line up ... it is very difficulty to dis-engage the body and lens at that point. And Hasselblad made a tool to cock the lens off the body although a small flat head screw driver would work. I was using the 120 Makro-planar and 160 Tessar on my S 006 recently with the S - V adapter. Long time since I had a 500 body ... not so long since I used a 905 SWC. Bob Welcome, dear visitor!

John McMaster Posted August 1, 2016 Share #31 Posted August 1, 2016 Ta, it is now over 15 years since I sold my Hasselblad V kit (black 903, 503, 50, 100, 180) - when it still had some value ;-) Still got the 500C/M I bought when I was 20..... john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kparseg Posted August 13, 2016 Share #35 Posted August 13, 2016 I bought this; Oh yeah, I saw this one on ebay. I'm wondering if there are any advantages of Leica S-V adapter over Metabones adapter or the one you bought. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted August 14, 2016 Share #36 Posted August 14, 2016 Probably just tighter tolerances, I bought the Leica Mamiya 645 converter and it is a tighter fit to the lens than my Kipon V adapter is to Hasselblad lenses. Not enough to worry about though, just that feeling of quality ;-) john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmknoble Posted June 2, 2023 Share #37 Posted June 2, 2023 Just re-read this post (only 7 years later!) as I am just getting around to trying the Hasselblad V (CF) lenses on the S3. For anyone else that reads this, just a note to remember that you can throw a quarter in your pocket so if a lens shutter trips you can reset it. I’m sure the Hassey film users already know this, but if you haven’t had to put a lens on a 500cm et al, you don’t realize that the planets have to align to make it work!

davidmknoble Posted June 4, 2023 Share #38 Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) Ok, had time to try out the Leica S adapter with the Hasselblad 120mm f/4 CF lens that I have. This was with the S007. I attached it to the camera, with the shutter reset (like it was ready to mount on my 500 cxi) and then looked through the camera. I focused using f/4 but set the f/stop to f/16 (in this case because it was close and a very shallow depth of field). I was in manual mode, so I used the slide on the side to stop down the lens, set the shutter speed where I wanted and just clicked the camera. Then I released the stop down slide on the left side of the lens and everything was back to normal. I used a tripod and used Capture One 23. I did apply some sharpening, but C1 actually has a profile for this lens, which was fantastic. I also used the linear view to allow more work on the digital image, which required adding some saturation. Took a bunch of 'flowers' around the house. My conclusion is that if you already have the lenses, it's certainly worthwhile and fun to shoot. Not any more difficult than shooting old lenses on the M or SL system.
