Ming Thein, former Chief of Strategy at Hasselblad cameras
Badly hassled.
For too long.
‘…the reasons for my departure are myriad. They mainly come down to a) increasing time demands of my watchmaking venture and family, and b) a difference between the company’s intentions for my role and where I believe I can add value/ what I feel passionate about.
I have spent the better part of the last few years fighting for things users want, need and find useful (thank me for electronic shutters, fast lenses and drone color later).
But it’s been met mostly with internal resistance and a daily assortment of complaints, blames, demands and such from the user community.
Worse, many insinuate that I am personally responsible for whatever grievance that individual has – which almost always could not be further from the truth.
Some even get threatening. Bottom line: it isn’t worth my time or stress levels anymore.’
From a blog entry this week by photographer Ming Thien, recently resigned from Hasselblad cameras.
In fairness.
Thanks Biddy Bitcoin
Sounds like he was hasseledbad. Who needs such stress and worry trying to do the stuff you love.
Pentax Spotmatic person myself.
Is he complaining about management or users?!
And we care because? Just another self important/know-it-all dude who cant take criticism. Moving on…
He’s been Chief of Strategy for 18 months, yet takes responsiblity for electronic shutters, fast lenses and drone color?
