Hasselblad 500 C/M with Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm f/2.8 T* and A12 Back – Used – Excellent Plus

The Hasselblad 500 C/M is a fully mechanical modular medium format camera introduced in 1970 as an update to the earlier 500C. The C/M model added interchangeable focusing screens while retaining compatibility with the Hasselblad V-system of lenses, viewfinders, and film backs.

This example is rated Used – Excellent Plus according to Camera Trading Company condition standards. The camera shows light signs of normal use and operates as intended. Film transport is smooth, the A12 back advances correctly, and the lens optics are clean and clear. The leaf shutter provides flash synchronization at all shutter speeds.

The included Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm f/2.8 T* is the standard lens for the system and features T* multi-coating for improved flare resistance and contrast.
