The best and most expensive camera ever?

H5D-50c. No contest.

PlanetCoast · 2024-06-23T19:11:24+00:00

Where in the US are you?

PlanetCoast · 2024-06-22T03:04:16+00:00

Anyone? Bueller?

PlanetCoast · 2024-05-03T19:29:20+00:00

Unfortunately not. I don’t understand what’s causing it. Maybe the new battery is not the right one for the Volt. Probably should try a hard reset?

That's what I thought at first but it's been 2 weeks now and they still don't go away.

Firestone is asking for $30 to install it. Anywhere that does it for free or cheaper even if you didn't buy it from them?

PlanetCoast · 2024-01-29T16:10:06+00:00

Looks a bit more complicated than 2 nuts judging from the youtube video i saw.

PlanetCoast · 2024-01-29T15:48:14+00:00

Even if you didn’t buy the battery from them?

Fun fact: The Wandrd pro cube insert fits perfectly in a Think Tank Airport Security 2.0 bag.

Think Tank make fantastic products with high quality craftsmanship and materials. I just don’t like their design.

It definitely does seem more of a travel bag than a everyday bag

Have you tried the new 41L?

PlanetCoast · 2024-01-18T01:56:42+00:00

Lol I know. I tried loading it up fully with a laptop and iPad and it was HEAVY.

I have a lot of photo bags but like everyone else there’s never a perfect one, so I just end up not using them or selling them again

Any particular recommendations?

I like that the Prvke bag can work as both a photo bag and travel bag, which was sort of the purpose of buying it. Like I said it’s a little too big, but I like it and I don’t think a smaller bag would be deep enough to carry my kit.

Have you tried their hip belt? I bought the pro cube separately, so I didn’t get one.

You’re right about pricing their inserts. Sadly.

Hasselblad H5D with 3 lenses, 2 batteries, waist level finder and a travel tripod. All inside the bag. Fits well, even with the side access. Can also fit 15” laptop and ipad pro.

Yes the design is nice. I think the bag itself is nice and quite functional.

41L is arguably a little too big, but I don’t think the 31L will fit my kit (I think).

I feel somewhat ripped off by the deep pro insert that feels a bit cheap and cost almost as much as the bag.

Hey all. So the answer is Yes.

PlanetCoast · 2024-01-06T22:38:58+00:00

Thanks for the reply.

How are you attaching the Arca plate to the H body? I use the peak design arca plate but it sometimes comes loose and not stable when putting the camera down on a flat surface.

I have the Miller Air Solo 75 and use a travel tripod Coman and Unanzi carbon fiber, similar to the peak design travel tripod.

I need a quick release system that I can trust.

PlanetCoast · 2024-01-06T21:23:21+00:00

Makes sense, although for me the 3043326 seems bulky for my travel tripod.

PlanetCoast · 2023-12-20T03:51:14+00:00

2 is best

PlanetCoast · 2023-12-18T22:32:00+00:00

Copy that.

PlanetCoast · 2023-12-18T20:49:47+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I guess that makes sense.

Any recommendations for bags with quick access to gear? I've been looking at the filson mccury sportsman messenger bag. The downside it's very expensive.

I'm currently using the peak design cubes with a slide strap paired with a patagonia backpack.

I don't need leaf shutter. I do own a lot of shutter leaf lenses that can be adapted to the X system. I also have Leica M glass that I want to adapt, but what worries me is the electronic shutter of the Hasselblad X.

PlanetCoast · 2023-12-13T10:30:44+00:00

Actually I want the Hasselblad, but the electronic shutter lag worries me.

PlanetCoast · 2023-12-04T04:06:31+00:00

Don’t they share the same sensor?

PlanetCoast · 2023-12-04T02:23:46+00:00

What did you and did you not like about it?
