That really is an atrocious review, if you can even call it a review. Very thin on Pentax relevance as well. We wait over 12 minutes for one Pentax relevant quote - the 67 gives better image quality than the Hasselblad.

I've just watched it and hope I've saved you 14 pretty dire minutes!
Best regards, John

John, I think you completely missed the point, it was not going to be review or even comparison between Hasselblad and Pentax, it doesn't say that, does it?
If you read brief description of this movie it says what is this about (not a review or P comparison), worth starting with that.
In fact, not a bad movie to remind about film cameras and a bit about working with that kit.

Now I just wait when you say that I shouldn't use name Hasselblad on this forum, hehe .

No, that wasn't my point. There's nothing to be gained from watching someone walking up and down streets with a Hasselblad and doing nothing really. Is there?

Still, I'll leave any further comment to others.
Best regards, John

Kai is my hero..........

What the film has done is remind us all how easy it is these days to take a picture on the move......but also how soulless the process is now

I think you are getting him mixed up with Ben Elton.

I enjoyed the video ... find him quite amusing (for a short amount of time).

I loved Ben Elton in his early days - Friday/Saturday night live (sparkly suits aside obviously)

I like it, it's funny and you have to take it as it is intended - tongue-in-cheek.

The way he walks around without camera on a strap and I nearly had a heart attack seeing him change film standing up with camera tucked under one arm .! Would never let him near my Pentax 6x7 or my 2002 Hasselblad 501CM -- then the 'studio photographer' has to do all those expensive 'polaroids' to get the exposure right even though he has a flash meter -- I NEVER used a Polaroid test -- just use an old Britsh 'BOWENS' flash meter and they come out OK !
Been a member of Pentax Club since the Ron Spillman era! Got COMPUTERISED at last - DIGITISED?
