As you see the Lunar is quite hot under rich and famous people 🙂 Thanks Zhiyi for sharing the pic!
Note: I remind you that Hasselblad and Sony collaboration could finally bring us something…let’s say…more “useful”. A new sensor! Announcement should be made in 2014.
There are also new Lunar and Stellars on auction:

P.s.: Hasselblad unveils “Stellar Special Edition” in three new colors (Imaging Resource).

Is the New Sony/Hassleblad Sensor going to be that FF 54 Megapixel one you recently mentioned ????
Sony must be glad to move those camera out of their scrap bin…
Haha, David Beckham is like the reincarnation of this camera. Good looking outside, overpriced, standard hardware inside.
Well atleast its got the grip that the sony badly needs.
Nevermind I was thinking of the Stellar not lunar´.
The lunar, LOL. Well, now it’s irrefutable, money and power doensn’t mean you have good taste.
Camera of choice for russian oligarchs, saudi royals, chinese princelings
Don’t forget the wannabe geeks on this site.
Don’t think anyone on this site would consider buying this camera
Any one who can buy a leica for the “glow” can sure as hell fork out money for that thing. there are folks here that have bought rebadged panasonic leica products…case closed.
The difference is that the Leica/Panasonics are indeed sold as a premium product, with a little restyling, for a premium of between 30 to 50% over the Panasonic model it is based on. The Lunar is almost eight times the price of the Sony it is based on. One is a little elitist, the other is just bonkers.
Cheers.
Even worse, there are people that actually think that everything in a Leica camera is made in Germany.
The expensive Hasselblad “cover” for the NEX-7 is a total different thing and can’t be compared to Leica. There’s nothing it adds to to the cameras then a slightly bigger grip, which can be had or 100 bucks elsewhere though.
It can be compared to a Leica because they are both cameras. and no, the Leica cannot float in the air and pat the red seas. A camera is a camera is a camera. A Leica is just a camera, nothing more.
leicas with their almost 10 grand m9’s aren’t much better. And in the the end they are both a rip off. |the lesser of two evils is still an evil and the less overpriced option is still…over priced.
My god, rich people are dumb…
But they’re smart enough to own the media and the intelligence apparatus and politicians and every corner of power..that way they can steal whatever they want. You don;t see senators sons signing up for their wars, do you?
Clearly, you’ve never heard of John McCain then.
mccain was not a foot soldier – he was in a billion dollar phantom jet bomber, bombing indiscriminately. and yes all sorties of that era unload their bombs payload on babies and whatnot.
Mccain was a POW and still didn’t learn a damn thing. Now he’s a fat cat and fat cats do whatever makes them fat. Just because your neighbor wins the lottery don’t mean you and 99 percent of the population are gonna have any chance of winning. And if any senators son signs up for a the war, they got no one to blame but themselves. People never take responsibility for their own actions in this world. They even think government jobs are real jobs, lol
So why are they rich and you aren’t, then?
Who’s side are you on? You are either on the side of the 99 percent, or you are on the side of the 1 percent. If you are the 1 percent, we have a lovely guillotine waiting for folks like you in the future.
Medvedev is stupid, so no wonder about it.
Dimitry must have a Phottix Odin with native and superior iISO connection. Fitting the Hasselblad would be the last Alpha with a proper flash system.
Sony lobbyist bribery?
So Medvedev also prefer the sony/hasselblad vs Leica?

i feel so ashamed right now
LOL..
O dear you poor people are so jealous. Its stil a good camera and if you have the money and want something different why not.
I’ve got a rock camera I’m selling for 100 thousand dollars. Would you like to buy one? It also comes with a red dot.
LUNARTICS!!!!!
This is one of those things someone with any kind of sense can’t wrap the head around. I know they are rich but thats not a excuse for this nonsense. I guess you get what you pay for, wait???
Didn´t he use Leica S?
Is that a Putin lookalike in the background on the right side?
No, Putin is not there.
Putin is too busy riding topless on horseback like a broke-back president.
Fake camera for ex fake president.
No need to go giving the guy abuse, he’s obviously been given one for promotional purposes. Accepting a free camera doesn’t make someone a rich idiot.
But it makes you a corrupt politician.
It’s not like this guy reputation can go any lower so why not take the camera?
Folks, the fourth Lunar comes to me! Medvedev will call me friend.. Then to post in here would be beneath my dignity.. ;-p
Simply Russian people pay tax and oligarchs plays with toy .
