A system that Calumet is immensely confident in, Hasselblad's H3DII-31 is on sale with $3000 off through June 30. It's a superb choice either as an upgrade over older medium format systems or as an entry into this next level of image quality.
Of course, you've already heard how much we love the camera. For this issue of Enews, we'd like to share thoughts from someone in the situation many pros are in: considering their first step into the digital medium format realm.
Last week, we came across Andrew Thomas Clifton, who had just tried the H3DII at our Chicago store. Professionally, Andrew shoots weddings, photojournalism, and culinary subjects. He's begun exploring fine art print work as well. So, the H3DII is set to be a major investment in his expanding career.
He's thoroughly impressed with the camera: "It's flawless as a device, ergonomically sound, and fast (relatively)." But he "was actually disappointed that it wasn't as BIG as [he] thought it would be."
In our candid interview with Clifton, he shares the details of how his career got to this point and why the Hasselblad H3DII is the odds-on favorite to be his next camera. How does a photographer make the decision to take this plunge? Read on to find out.

Nikon D5000
Now Available
The past year has been a revolutionary one for the DSLR. The evolution of Live View lets us compose, focus, and preview our shots from a camera's LCD screen. Drastically improved ISO performance allows us to shoot handheld in lower light situations than ever before. And the advent of HD video recording opens an entire new world of image capture.
With the 12.3-megapixel D5000, Nikon has taken all these developments, packed them into a featherweight camera, and added yet another innovation: a vari-angle LCD display. And this tech-savvy little DSLR is now available from Calumet in a kit that includes the latest version of Nikon's 18-55mm VR lens.
Instead of being fixed to the back of the camera body, the D5000's LCD screen flips out, letting you compose from any angle. Hold it above your head in a crowd or at a concert. Keep it waist-level for candid street photography. Shoot from the ground without getting dirty.
The D5000 also features built-in sensor cleaning, a durable shutter tested to last over 100,000 cycles, and GPS geo-tagging with the optional GP-1 unit.
