Hasselblad 501C

Out of stock
The Hasselblad 501C was introduced as an entry-level V-system camera, effectively replacing the 500C/M. It retains the classic 6x6 medium format SLR design but typically came finished in black. It features the Acute Matte focusing screen as standard, providing a much brighter image in the viewfinder than earlier 500-series models. It is a fully mechanical camera, compatible with the vast range of Carl Zeiss C, CF, CFi, and CFE lenses.
