I don't think many people who own a Hasselblad are doing it for a hobby.
Me neither, but photography as a hobby is pretty pricey in comparison to, say, drawing or graphic design.

A professional photographer acquaintance of mine was looking at buying a digital medium format rig for his studio so he had a Hassey rep come out. According to the rep, most of the people he sells to are doctors and lawyers, which makes sense when you look at how much - or how little - most professional photographers earn (median was around 26K according to the last census).

It was my first time (and probably will be my last time) using the camera. I used Lightroom rather than the program that Hasselblad supplies - mainly because I know the LR interface and I didn't know how to use their program (called PHOCUS). Remember too ... you are looking at a 100% crop. That's a 700 pixel square pulled out of a FIFTY MEGAPIXEL image. The OP said no edit was done. You seem to contradict yourself dude. dwterry wrote in post #12538562 For what it's worth ... I've been shooting the 5D Mark II since it was released nearly 3 years ago now (have two of them and a bunch of L glass) and also have a 1D Mark III. None of my cameras would have shown that much detail from that far away. I'd take it.
