Hasselblad 500C camera w/ Planar 80mm F2.8 lens + A12 Back + TTL prism #2920
Good working Hasselblad camera kit
This camera is fully used, tested, and working as it should
All knobs and levers are present and working as they should, though film rewind lever cap is missing on back (no impact on use or function)
Both camera and lens shutters are working as they should with crisp smooth action throughout
Cosmetically, both camera and lens show normal signs of use
Inside of camera and back are functional and clean
Type II A12 back works as it should, missing name plate on side
Kiev TTL prism is bright and clear with a good eyepiece, the meter does light up but readings are incorrect, so assume the meter is NOT working, Prism is very nice inside and out and provides and excellent right side up image
Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm F2.8 lens:
"Normal" angle of view lens
Lens is used, tested, and working as it should
Lens shutter is working correctly and fires nicely on all speeds
Lens glass is generally clean with no major issues to note, no fungus, haze or scratches
Front element has some cleaning marks on coating - ugly but no impact on image quality - tested, working as it should - please do not buy this if you think this will make you want to return this camera
We have tested this lens and priced the camera kit accordingly to its condition, cosmetic and overall, hopefully this is a great deal for someone who is willing to get an "ugly\user" but fully functional camera at a great price instead of a shelf queen :)!
