Hehe, the ultimate gadget for any photographer/ paparazi 
This one is especially designed for a Hasselblad
And no it doesn't have vibration reduction but yes you can take pics from the caroussel straight to the start and finish line

That's why I always end up buying a NG mag when I pass by a mag store.
The pictures you find into those, are the best !!!
Thanks for the info.

Very practical, they just have to point to the right location and take the pics from wherever they are.

Well, 1700 sounds extremer than it is. Remember that on medium format 80mm is a standard lens, whereas that's 50mm on a 35mm-camera (and 31.25 on a 1,6-crop digicam). 1700 divided by 2.56 (80/31.25) equals 664mm. Still impressive, but no shoot-around-the-world-capabilities.

I've got one of those. I hired a midget wrestler to hold it on his head while I shoot pictures.
