Hello,
As the title says, I have a very clean Hasselblad Flexbody outfit in its original Hasselblad blue bag/case.
Works very well. No wear on the light trap areas on the rear of the body. Has the correct bright focusing screen and the three slide in inserts original to this outfit. The screen is bright and clean with no or at least very few marks, maybe a slight one in a corner area. Sorry I got a few reflection in the pictures. Also comes with the original instruction book.
$975 plus $25 insured shipping in the 48 US States.
Thank you,
Robert

I came within millimeters of buying this since I have five lenses that I could use with it. Someone hurry up and jump in before I have fifteenth thoughts!

I bought one on Thursday for $300 more than this, doh!! I would just get it Sirius!

I just do not use the Hasselblad for close ups like I do with a Nikon AF macro zoom and I very rarely do perspective correction [one time with a Speed Graphic and it was successful]. Also I just bought a f/3.5 28mm PC lens] for the Nikons. So my Kodak enabler buddy convinced me to pass on this. Although if you bought this one too you could then use them to do stereo Hasselblad photographs.

My main reasons for getting it are the need for ever so slight tilts in landscapes and most of all, precise double exposures where the film does not move at all. In the latter I still think I am going to have to put a lens cap on to reset the lens / shutter.

Interesting use of this camera (for multiple exposures). I ruined several pictures with inadvertent multiple exposures when I first got mine. Good for you in putting this camera to creative use that way.

Always make sure the furniture is square to the focal plane, especially when carrying it in a bag or other container without a good, high density bespoken foam 'nest'.

On mine, the locking, right back standard was pushed forward, and you could no get a good focus using it that way.

It's a simple fix and in fact, I find the FlexBody a simple camera to use, once you have the manual of operations firm in your mind.

Mine came complete, Except for the three square Lenses shown above, without which, the focusing can be made to take a bit longer.

This was a very good deal,
IMO.
