Can I use Kiev stuff on a Hasselblad?
Between the Kiev 88 line and Hasselblad’s cameras, only the finders are compatible. Quite a few Hasselblad owners have gotten by with Kiev 88 prism finders which are much cheaper. The Kiev prism finders do pick up internal reflections which some people find distracting. The screw mount of the Salyut and Kiev 88 lenses (not the 88CM, which has a Pentacon 6 style mount) is very similar to the one used by the early focal plane Hasselblads, 1000F and 1600F, however they are not compatible due to screw pitch differences. It has been reported that the Hasselblad screw pitch is slightly smaller and so these lenses can actually fit on Salyut and Kiev 88 bodies, but they will not lock in place properly. Also, Hartblei’s Hartblei branded cameras offer film back compatibility with Hasselblad cameras.
