The RB is the camera I was saying is impossible to handhold, not the
Hasselblad. If you were handholding the RB you really have no business
criticizing the lenses. They were probably very good if you used a tripod
for that camera, like God intended. Hasselblads and M645s are both easy to
handhold, but even with those lighter bodies (even with 35mm cameras) you
should never judge lens quality from handheld shots.
