Hasselblad 500 CM C/M Medium Format 6x6 Camera Body A12 Film Back Tested

  
I'm glad to propose up for the sale Hasselblad 500 C/M Camera body in excellent working condition. Great choice for true collectors. The Hasselblad 500C was introduced in 1957 by the Victor Hasselblad AB, replacing the original focal plane shutter models 1600F and 1000F, which, despite the novel concept never got rid of the problems associated with the shutter. Realizing this, Hasselblad decided to start almost from scratch in order to make a more reliable model. It was a major decision for the company to create a completely new camera, only keeping the physical shape of the original, while everything inside would be new.

The single inspiring factor was the promising new Compur shutter, based on Zeiss Ikons Contaflex experience, and the fact that Zeiss committed them selves to manufacture the new range of lenses. The shutter would be an integral part of every interchangeable Hasselblad lens. The new design meant electronic flash synchronization at all shutter speeds, and automatic aperture stop down, the latter one year before the first 35mm SLR, the Minolta SR-2.

The new model name 500C reflects the fastest shutter speed and the shutter type, already an established practice: a 1/500th second and the Central lens shutter made by Compur. Image size: 60 x 60mm. Body is in excellent condition. Camera was fully tested with Film.

Shutter counter on the film back works correctly. Camera curtains are free from light leak. Interframe distance is checked and ok. Hasselblad 500 C/M Camera Body + prism viewfinder, A12 Film back with take-up spool. Otherwise I can't guarantee availability of the item.

Item are carefully packed usually with. Bubble wrap in carton boxes. For customers from Italy: unfortunately Italian postal service sometimes working very slow, so please be patient.

All items must be return in original conditions without any physical changes with all of its components. If you have any questions - Please ask! I will try to answer in detail!
