Dave, how much use has the lens seen? The Hassey lens shutters
ride on a teflon coated metal donut. Eventually, the teflon
wears off, and the shutter crashes.
A friend of mine wore an 80mm lens shutter out in just over a
year of hard use.
Personally, I don't think you can get a better camera than the
500 series Hasselblad.
