p.1 #1 · Hasselblad--Need Help!


This equipment has come available to me for virtually nothing. I will apologize for this question in advance, as I assume this stuff is worth alot of money--but, frankly, I don't know! The equipment is in "as new" condition according to my friend. So, is this a great value at $500?

Hasselblad 553ELX Camera Body
Hasselblad Camera Body, Unknown model
Hasselblad PME 90 Meter Prism Viewfinder
Hasselblad Viewfinder, Unknown model
Hasselblad/Carl Zeiss Planar 2.8/90 lens
Hasselblad/Carl Zeiss Synchro-Compur 1:5,6 f=250mm lens
Hasselblad/Carl Zeiss Synchro-Compur 1:5,6 f=120mm lens
Hasselblad/Carl Zeiss Sonnar 4/150 lens
Hasselblad/Carl Zeiss Distagon 4/50 lens
Sekonic Studio Deluxe exposure meter, model L-28c

Thanks for your thoughts!

Isn't a quick ebay search for completed listings of the items in question a better option than posting this thread?

Sure it is. 500 dollar for 2 body's and 5 lenses is a great deal.
And great thing is you could look as cool as this guy:

Would check if the lenses are T* coated trough. I would not go for the pre T* lenses since there is a quite big difference in quality compared to the coated ones.

And ask if he has some backs to sell for you. Else you would have to buy at least one back with should cost you another 150 to 200 euro.

To compare, 500 C/M body with 2.8/80 T* lens would cost about 750 euro in the store next to me.

In the used market world of Hasselblad that list is not the "stuff - worth a lot of money" - but would make a nice play around kit depending on what you'd like to do with it. For $500 it's hard to loose - count in the expense for film and processing and the bulk of moving it around.

The 90/2.8 is probably a typo - might be an 80/2.8 - the Synchro-Compur's are from the older "C" series - check to see that they are T* coated - the 50/4 is problably the standard "C" 50mm - not regarded as a high IQ lens - that lens was greatly improved by the 'CF/FLE" series.

Hope it works out for you - have fun!

That's a great price, but this kind of stuff doesn't really move much at the moment, so buying to sell might be too much of a hassle.
