This is an early version 500c/m. It says "c" on the side, but you can tell that it's a c/m because the focusing screen has a tab on either side to lock/release it, making it easy to swap focusing screens. Functionally, that's the only difference between the 500c and the 500c/m, and some of the early 500c/m's (like this one!) were made with "c" markings.
The Hasselblad 500c/m is one of the most coveted cameras ever made. Who cannot love a camera whose body is made from a single piece of steel? This camera is a true classic of industrial art with an iconic design that has changed little since it was introduced over fifty years ago (though there has been extensive refinement and improvement).
This is the early version of the 500c/m with "c" markings. It comes complete with the standard 80mm f2.8 lens, upgraded one touch waist level finder and the A12 6x6 film back.
This camera is in excellent condition with light wear. The lens has clean scratch free glass with no haze or fungus and smooth focus. The shutter is strong and accurate at all speeds. The film back is light tight with new seals.
The lens cap and dark slide are included.
This is a nice one.
