[HUG] Re: OUCH ! need a softrelease for my 500 c/mSorry Joanne,
I forget there are many women using Hasselblad cameras who are at least as 
devoted to these as men.

I am sure many of you remember pictures taken handheld by a few guys troubled 
by uncomfortable suits they were wearing at the time.
Astronauts to begin with Walter Schirra, who introduced Hasselblad cameras to 
NASA, used these cameras handheld for a large part.
Walter Schirra bought a 500C camera from a Houston camera dealer less than half 
a year before he was to go into space.
During these few months he was impressed by the quality of the pictures and 
introduced Hasselblad cameras to NASA.

  Excuse me, men from boys? And women from girls. There are plenty of places in 
the world where tripods aren't allowed, such as caves, cathedrals and historic 
monuments. But Richard's right - it takes strength, stability and not-shaky 
hands.
