In '96 I wrote to Hasselblad asking about the availability of a magazine for
35mm film, since I had heard that some had been made. They answered that it
is not a stock item, but can be made by the factory in Sweden upon request.
The retail price they quoted as of '95 was .... wait for it .......
$1736.00 US. Approx. 8 month delivery time. Need I add that I didn't want one
quite that much?
