Hi Philip,

Here's info about the FlexBody.  http://medfmt.8k.com/mf/hassyflex.html

It has back movements, which I like better than lens movements. Rise, fall, 
& tilt and 30+mm of extension capability. It is an outstanding camera body 
for folks (like me) who have a plethora of Hasselblad lenses and film 
backs. Used prices in the US are falling as well. One can get a used Flex 
here for $1000-$1200. BTW, Hasselblad stopped making them. But will support 
them forever since they are so simple.

;-)
