This is a duplicate ask of what I've posted elsewhere so ignore it if you've seen it online.

 
I have Hasselblad 50 2.8 broken by Bill Moretz during servicing. If you want PM me
 
Bill Moretz broke a 50/2.8? Ouch I’m sad to hear that
 
I got few responses from others. However I ll give it to Eli as he started this thread and responded first.
 
Hasselblad 50mm f/2.8? I didn't realize there was such a thing? I'm only aware of a 50mm f/4! Are you sure?

There was a Zeiss 50mm f2.8 Distagon for Hasselblad, but it didn't have a shutter. It was for the focal-plane shutter Hasselblads.
 
This was for Hasselblad 2000fcm. They made some slick lenses. I didn't enjoy it after Bill broke the lens. Hence I sold the rest of my set up long time back.
 
I will take a working Hasselblad lens for donation.
 
Bump, still looking for unloved, damaged, disassembled or simply stopped working, Hasselblad kit for price of shopping.

Cheers, and, I hope all of you had a grateful Thanksgiving day.
 
New bump, new year!

Godspeed to each and everyone of you and your loved ones!
 
Green Bump, still looking for any, all items, not working or in need of repair or broken, still sought.

Cheers.
 
Mid-year bump in my request for Hasselblad lenses, bodies that no longer work or for parts and repair practice.

Enjoy the upcoming Fourth of July festivities!

I had a 500C body that was on a tripod when the wind blew it over onto a concrete surface. The lens and magazine were fine but the body was torqued pretty bad. Sent it to David Odess who pronounced to be NFG. He gave me $200 for it for parts. That was in 2018 or 2019.

Yes, anything Hasselblad is worth something to somebody, but im hoping long term, some folks will feel like sending me things they would like to see me use somehow, rather than getting money for.

For some folks there is more satisfaction in 'rolling' like that than getting paid for every broken thing.

I've been lucky and have been buying things with my small inheritance these last several months, including some things used, but that's coming to an end and I have to still put out 'ask' until I win the lottery and I don't mind asking for what I need or can work on myself.

One thing I can really use is one or more Hasselblad A70 cassettes, p as it's or complete.

So 70mm b&w film too.
