It used to be difficult when I lived in Göteborg. But now that they have released the XPAN the tabo has been removed :-) Actually the Hasselblad family a camera store, I also think they were the Kodak distributors in Sweden, before Viktor designed the cameras with his name. And until a few years ago there was a chain of camera stores called Hasselblad Foto, they then changed the name to Kodak Image Center. As far as I remember, which isn´t very far, 15-20 years Hasselblad Foto was owned by Kodak, but the origin was the old Hasselblad family company. I have somewhere an old Hasselblad Foto cataloge from the ca 1950 with alot of cool cameras in it. Its amazing how cheap high quality cameras are these days. /Anders Nygren
