I wonder what that's going to cost?  All you have to say is "Hasselblad" and you can see the $$$ drifting around.  A lot of them.  Then you have to put some glass on the front of it.  At least you don't have to buy the 120 or 220 film and the film backs.

Just watched this, IIRC they stated $40K for the camera. I assume that is sans any glass up front. Chump change for some...

I looked for it at B&H.  They have free shipping on this.  That sure makes me want to buy one.

Many or all of the Hasselblad glass has been designed and built by Fuji in Japan.  Fujinon lenses are well respected in the movie and television industries for their quality of design and construction for these commonly large lenses used for professional quality professional cameras.  I am sure the Hassey glass comes without any Fuji ID markings though they should show made in Japan rather than anywhere in Scandanavia.
