>>116933 Actually, they're not. Believe it or not, Hasselblads suck for high-ISO work. The problem is that it's not really what they're designed for--you rarely see people toting around a Hasselblad for things like shots in a club. They're for things like landscapes and staged portrait shots where the lighting is pretty well under the control of the photographer.
Don't believe me? The maximum ISO of an H3D is 800. I'm sure it's a beautiful 800, but my lowly Rebel XTi can do 1600 natively, and the (much cheaper than an H3D) D3 blows everything else on the market out of the water right now. Oh, and also, I don't think there are any Hasselblad lenses with particularly wide apertures. I've heard a Mamiya F/1.9 lens referred to as the "Noctilux of medium format" which suggests that you're not going to be able to get something like an f/1.4 or f/1.2 on a Hasselblad either.
And yes, I realize that "Get a Hasselblad" wasn't a serious suggestion.
>>116930 I agree with the other comments. Moar light. I'm guessing you were going for a silhouette look here, but I don't think it's really working--at least make the backlighting brighter if you're going for silhouettes, and straighten out the backdrop so you don't have the huge dark shadow on the right side where the light isn't hitting.
