This listing is for a Hasselblad 500C camera body, paired with a matching A12 film back (dated 1968) and a prism-style focus screen (installed).
While there’s no lens or viewfinder included, this is a solid foundation for anyone looking to build a Hasselblad V-system kit.
The prism focus screen makes it much easier to nail focus —especially when working handheld.
Included:
Hasselblad 500C body
A12 film back (SN dated to 1968)

Condition:
Fair used condition overall
A12 back shows moderate chrome corrosion on one side (see photos)
Film advance, shutter cocking, and mirror mechanism all operate smoothly during testing
The camera body is fully operational in basic handling tests (advance, cock, fire), and the A12 back also advances film properly
Great for parts, restoration, or completing a modular setup
This camera is a ton of fun to use, and the prism focus screen makes critical focusing much easier!
