Hasselblad 500cm 6x6 SLR + 80mm f/2.8 CF Lens, A12 Back, Waist level Viewfinder

The Hasselblad 500CM is one of the most legendary medium format cameras ever made — a true workhorse of professional photography from the 1970s through the 1990s. Built around a modular system, it allows users to swap lenses, film backs, and viewfinders, making it one of the most versatile medium format cameras available.

This kit includes the Carl Zeiss Planar T 80mm f/2.8 CF lens*, widely regarded as the “normal” lens for the system and famous for its sharpness, contrast, and smooth rendering. The A12 6x6 film back lets you shoot twelve 6x6cm exposures per roll of 120 film, and the waist level viewfinder gives that classic top-down shooting experience that makes the 500 series so intuitive and enjoyable to use.

Condition: EXCELLENT

This Hasselblad 500CM set is in excellent condition with only light cosmetic wear. The body, lens, and back are all in great shape and fully functional. The Zeiss 80mm f/2.8 CF lens is clean and clear, with smooth focus and aperture action. The A12 back advances and resets properly, and the waist level finder is bright and easy to use. Shutter speeds on the lens are accurate, and the camera is ready for immediate use.

A beautiful example of a classic medium format system, perfect for both working professionals and dedicated film enthusiasts.
