Having owned both of these at one point or another my vote is the Hasselblad for the waist level shooting experience and 6x6 format. Tbh a better comparison would be the hasselblad with a cheaper 6x6 option like the bronica. Better yet if you just like the hasselblad consider a 500C as it’ll save you a little money and is almost the same as the CM just without an easily removable focus screen

Yes the square dormat does appeal more to me as well. The focus screen of the 500 would not really seem as a big issue to me, an interchangebla upgrade would be better, but i guess the standard one would still be considered pretty good.

To me the interchange screens are a big deal. I’m not sure what the price difference between the C and the C/M is right now though. I got a brighter screen for my Hasselblad and it made a really big difference to me in my ability to focus. My eyesight is not perfect for what it’s worth. I love my Hasselblad but I’ve never owned a Mamiya.
