Yes, I've thought about it. My favorite camera of all time, the one I felt--as dumb as it sounds--special in some way, was my Hasselblad 500C/M. I just loved that camera. Bought it working minimum wage jobs so that was a lot of financial sacrifice, if you can imagine. If I had the money I would jump on one of those new backs.

But i would still need something more portable, I think. I'm hoping the D800E, once I get it all set up (I already have a bunch of Zeiss lenses so I sort of planned ahead in a way), will capture some of that old Hasselbald feeling. We'll see.
