This 500C's previous owner must have been very nice to it. There are minor scuffs on the top and bottom of the camera. Nothing that will affect the outcome of your photo. The lens is in pristine condition and there's no denying the beauty.
It also comes with the original 500Classic Instructions Manual and rope strap!
The Hasselblad 500 series began with the revolutionary 500C, one of the most iconic cameras in photographic history. Modified throughout the years, the 500 series cameras represent the pinnacle of Victor Hasselblad's V System.
The serial number on this body is: TC 59989
This Camera is a favorite of photographer Dan Rubin. See it in action below:
And another video with Braedon Flynn and Dan Rubin both shooting Hasselblads comparing different Kodak black and white films:
Part of the uniqueness of the Hasselblad 500-series camera is its modular design. The camera consists of a body fashioned from a single block of nickel-alloy, a lens, a film back, a folding viewfinder (or optional prism finder), and a film crank, each of which is interchangeable with almost every Hasselblad 500-series camera produced from 1957 through 2006, when the last Hasselblad 500-series camera was hand-assembled, in 2006.
