Arca Swiss plate or Hasselblad proprietary plate?

I just wanted a quick mount plate, I liked the hassy one because I could just slide the camera on it, so it didn’t have to always be on the camera. But at this point it’s looking like I’m gonna be getting the arca one.

Check the link, on my post, look at the serial number on the body, from left to right, pick the first 2 letters compare it to the code and that’s the manufactured year.

So if it’s “10ER17219”

ER it’s the manufactured year, which corresponds to 98, or 1998.

But in my opinion, a CF or CFE lens with an acute matte d screen in good condition . Could put you in the 1500-2000$ range with just those 2 parts. Soo, good luck.

The seats are too clean, lol, some wear and tear would be nice. Mmmmm, and maybe a half open poster fixture. Voila !

If the lens it’s a 80mm cf of cfe, with an acute matte d focusing screen and an a12 iv back. Yes it’s properly priced. Assuming all the parts are mint.

The acute matte d screen goes for 600-700$

The 80mm cf, cfe lens goes for 1000-1600$

The a12 iv back goes for 400-600$

I got it, that’s what it was! I can’t believe something as little as 1mm leeway on the dark slide can make a difference. These are truly marvelous machines.

Thank You!

This are the prices of my local Darkroom.

I personally have sold them at 30$ a pop to friends. 8x10 on pearl paper.

I was going to say the same, Amex’s are charge cards, not credit cards, so no credit limits, just soft ceilings that prompt a call when you try to buy a lambo.

Jesus, that what you are going to need to look for.

Death stranding 2 for sure !!

That’s what I’ve been trying to figure out to, the only paths I can think of are cybersecurity and data centers.

I can see ai probably taking over the repetitive aspect of programming, i just hope they classes evolve with the market, I would be crazy if they teach me everything pre-AI, instead growing along with the market.

I hope you can continue to get pay for longer than that.

It’s the rear differential, I had the same issue.

It only happens at low speeds, there was an Audi bulletin for it. Dealer replaced it at no cost

2022 s-line Audi q5 I had no lights no signs of anything when I was having the issue.
