Hasselblad Lens for Still Life Photography?

[Leigh B]

If you do use an extension tube, remember:

Lens is ALWAYS last on, first off.

And ALWAYS keep your finger away from the shutter release button when (dis-)mounting lenses, even when not using extension tubes.

Guys, here's my first good image from my first session of still life in my entire life. I gathered up some milk jugs, some I found while out in the woods. The crate is from my great grandfathers fruit orchard he operated years ago. Notice the "Steinberger Orchards." The shot was almost at closest focus. Shot at f/16 at 1/2sec on FP4 and developed in Rodinal 1:50 for optimum sharpness. I really like the way this image came together. And I'm very excited to get into shooting still life more!

Good work, Brian. Keep it up.

Really nice!

My newest one!

BTW.. I'm getting some small amount of flare from the 120/5.6. Knowing it's not a T* coating I should get a lens hood for it. What is the correct B50 lens hood to use on this lens?

Wow, that´s amazing!
