    Description

    Description:
    In excellent condition with signs light and very careful of use. Light seal is in good condition and light tight. An original matching outfit sold in 1967. It is rare to see a complete outfit that is still together. The camera and back are both dated 1966/7 (serial number and TR* TU*), and the lens is dated 1967 (serial number 4591307). Hasselblad 500C bodies and 500C/M was made by Hasselblad between 1957 and 1994.

    The basic design is the same for all cameras made over that period, though there were many minor variations and changes. The only difference between the 500C and the 500C/M is that the C/M has an interchangeable focusing screen, whereas the 500C is fixed.

    Condition details:
    Cosmetic: Light wear. A few marks to the rear, where the back fits to the body, and the base. Suggesting some light, careful use.
    Optical: The optics are excellent – free from all scratches, debris and fungus.
    Mechanical: Fully working. Flaps are quick. Mirror release button works. T lever works.
    Dust/Haze: Almost perfect. A little dust and haze when held to a bright light.
    Light seals: The light seal is light tight.
    Graded: Excellent Plus
    (Signs of light use, but not misuse. )
