Georges Posted June 21, 2016 Share #162 Posted June 21, 2016 Sorry, Neil, if I spoiled your evening with the US selling prices for the 006. If you are in CH, still welcome. Georges Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georges No need to be sorry.....just pissed off that a $17000 camera can be only worth 5 to 6k in less that 12 months. Saying that the Leica S006 is a fantastic camera and takes amazing pictures better than anything else that I have owned........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georges Posted June 21, 2016 Share #164 Posted June 21, 2016 That's why I don't want to go to the 007. Once they bring the 008 with a better sensor, you will see the same price drop. At least Hasselblad offers a nice trade-in program with the H6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djmay Posted June 21, 2016 Share #170 Posted June 21, 2016 THe pricing is going to make the 006 plummet even more.........I love my S006 I love the S 006 also. The mirrorless aspect is an advantage because slower shutter speeds will be possible without the 2 second delay for mirror lockup. If it is the same sensor as the CFV-50C digital back, the size is 6% larger. IQ should be about the same as the existing digital back. Someone must have done a comparison between that and the S. All in all, I expect the skill of the photographer will make the difference. It is difficult to imagine that someone would drop the S and switch. No regrets on buying the S. Leica hopefully has an S in the planning, without a mirror. I should be ready to purchase it in about 5 years . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZHNL Posted June 21, 2016 Share #172 Posted June 21, 2016 http://photorumors.com/2016/06/21/the-new-hasselblad-x1d-medium-format-mirrorless-camera-leaked-online/ best MF news ! and much more interesting than S or SL Really? Is it only me don't feel anything about this Hassy offer? For $9000, you can get a S with a lens or two nowdays. Is it big ViewFinder, super glasses rendering and CCD sensor file, build quality and ergonomics plus the red dot() are the reason we are still with S? This new Hassy offer none of above. For mirrorless digital back, I will just stitch a few file with Sony if in need. They are dirt cheap now. Having said that, Once leica have such a MILC S format camera with RED DOT and good price, I will be interested. Either way, hold your S&Contax645 glasses tight, there are big waves coming.

siddhaarta Posted June 21, 2016 Share #173 Posted June 21, 2016 I think it is a very good price (Pentax level, but with EVF and Hasselblad batch on it and - probably- access to H lenses). This should put more pressure on 007 pricing. I would buy one as backup body for my S lenses, if there would be a smart adapter. But I guess, Hasselblad is not that generous as Leica was when they created the H-Adapter (or should I say Leica will not allow Hasselblad to make an adapter?)

RVB Posted June 21, 2016 Share #174 Posted June 21, 2016 Looks interesting, I wonder if there will be an adaptor to use other lenses? Welcome, dear visitor!

tom0511 Posted June 22, 2016 Share #176 Posted June 22, 2016 The design looks nice. A little like a Mamiya 6 / 7. And the price seems right as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, Once leica have such a MILC S format camera with RED DOT and good price, I will be interested. Are you suggesting that the "big viewfinder" and "CCD sensor file" aren't really that significant after all – that it's really the lack of a red dot that makes the new Hasselblad camera so uninteresting?

Photoskeptic Posted June 22, 2016 Share #179 Posted June 22, 2016 I love the S 006 also.

Leica hopefully has an S in the planning, without a mirror. I should be ready to purchase it in about 5 years . I have shot the H5D-50c, CFV-50c and Leica S006. At 100% there is a resolution difference, naturally. Leica color is better but I didn't use the Hasselblad Phocus software which is supposed to really pop the H color. I have the Leica. I liked the H just fine, but my D810 pretty much covers what I was testing the H for - long exposures. The Leica handles differently than the H, but neither is bad, it just becomes a personal choice. There are things I liked better in the H than the Leica and vice versa. I'd buy the H to replace my Nikon setup, but I just don't need that much gear and there is no way I could shoot surfers and birds with MF. As to the new H X1D, we'll all know in about thirty minutes . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
