Re: Hasselblad cap

   I have used a cap pinhole on my Hasselblad for years. I view with my
normal lens or the look threw on a old rollie hood adapted to fit the
Hasse.I have may pinhole cameras but it can be very helpfull to mave lens
cap pinhole for a # of camers.Its allways in the camera bag who knows when
you might see a pinhole photo I allso have one for Leica. Great thing about
a rangfinder is you have finder.
