"The mechanical Hasselblad cameras are also painfully unreliable."
i have to disagree with that statement. the fc2000 cameras and lenses they released in the early 80's were very unreliable and quietly dropped a few years later.
but the 500 series cameras are probably the most reliable medium format system out there. that's an opinion based on using them for the last 10 years as a photographer not an 'enthusiast'
in that time i have had one roll film back serviced as it was feeling a bit tight and slightly out of registration, i haven't had anything else serviced in that time, this stuff just works.
