PLEASE NOTE THAT THE LENS AND FILM MAGAZINE ARE SHOWN FOR ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY TO SHOW DIFFERENT EXAMPLES OF CAMERA MOVEMENTS.  THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE! It is a shame that Hasselblad discontinued the production of this great camera; and that's what makes it extremely rare. Forget about looking for it at B&H or your favorite Hong Kong camera super store; you'll have a tough time finding it. The Flexbody is by far the most versatile Hasselblad camera I've ever used! It serves as a mini view camera and serves the features I need such as tilt and shift; and having the ability to use existing Hasselblad lenses and film backs including digital backs. Extremely lightweight and compact (about 1.5 lbs), the Flexbody offers me the versatility I need and the ability to support my style of shooting; most of the time using extreme tilt with a 120MM Makro-Planar CFi Lens to achieve selective focusing. In my opinion, the 120mm Makro-Planar Lens (CFi or CFE) is the best lens for this camera The body has a built in auto-bellows which makes it capable of close-up photography; can be extended up to 24mm. Thank you for visiting! We appreciate your business. Please read the Terms and Conditions and policies thoroughly and completely before bidding and/or buying.
