Potrait research- Hasselblad

Well Friday was my first time working  in the studio  and i found it great fun, But what made the experiance even better i got to use an Hasselblad camera which made me very nervous as i am very accident prone. We were introduced to the capture one programme that is what I need to complete my project breif. So the whole group was involved in experimenting and getting to use the Hassleblad camera and model infront of it. Which consisted of getting the camera to the right hiht and looking into the camera from above it which i loved it then had a circle on the middle one half was black which i assumed i had to turn the focus part of the lens till the black half of the circle became see through. Then the botton to take the picture was located right near the lens. Once pushed  the picture appeared on the computer screen on the capture one program and to check to see if we truly had the subject n focus the eye was magnified and if it was in focus you could dee every tiny piece of detail in the eye and it was fabulous. I have now find myself obsessed with haveing a camera myself that has the clarity and sharpness but unless i remorgage my hoouse i dont think it will be a hasselblad unfortunitly. So after Friday i find myself truly looking forward to this project.
