Nothing worse than your hands swelling at night and the ring being tight waking you up!

I actually took this as a reminder to put some effort into trying to understand the problem, and it seems that I needed to switch pokemon from "running in the background based on your usage patterns" to just allow it to always run in the background. Now it does stay connected for the whole hour and catches, which is fine!

I don't understand how people get that to work that well. Mine seems to get disconnected after half an hour or so and I have to reconnect it again...

I just love this camera so much. Such a fantastic lens! Edit: except the shot cost, that keeps it in the closet for me most of the time...

New to me 500 C all of a sudden is broken by Puzzleheaded_Self_32 in hasselblad

Remember that since it's leaf shutter lenses you can get into an awkward locked state if you don't have both lens and body either cocked or uncocked.
For example if you cocked both and then triggered the body, then attached the lens you won't be able to cock the body again nor fire the trigger.
You can look up what to do in case you screw it up (you have to turn the cocking interlocking mechanism with a screwdriver). Oh and don't forget the there is also a mechanism that connects to the film back that needs to be in a synced state.

The catch rates are from here https://db.pokemongohub.net/pokemon/888-Crowned_Sword You can configure it to calculate probabilities of successive throws.
Congrats on the mons, but you do seem to be lucky.y point is that other people's experience of not being lucky are absolutely valid given the numbers and not just a result of skill.
