Why is Hasselblad camera so expensive?

1. Because it is a medium format, the images in the medium format are often larger, larger, with relatively higher technology, very stable quality and long service life. Decided that Hasselblad is very expensive.

The Rolls Royce in 135 system is Leica.

The Rolls Royce in 120 system is Hasselblad.

There are about 50 million pixels downstairs, and you can have a wider field of vision-this is nonsense, and the field of vision is related to the lens! The 50MM of 135 and the 80MM of 120 are the same visual field!

Hasselblad is a B-class in both the film era and the digital era, but now the digital back is influenced by other manufacturers such as Freescale. But Hasselblad's digital all-in-one machine is also the most expensive in 120!

Born in victor hasselblad, Gothenburg, Sweden, 1906, he was keen on bird photography as a teenager and was familiar with Leica, Camhassus LOGO Taishi, Gra Flex and Lulai cameras on the market at that time. His dream is to be a "single lens reflex camera with replaceable lens, film box and viewfinder". After the outbreak of World War II, the Swedish Air Force learned his advanced camera design ideas from victor hasselblad's articles and ordered cameras for reconnaissance. So Hasselblad made the first aerial camera-HK7 in 194 1 year, and then designed and manufactured SKA4, SKA5 and MK80 cameras for the army. From 194 1 to 1945, Hasselblad delivered 36 cameras to the Swedish Air Force and Army. Hasselblad's first medium format single lens reflex camera 1600F was born in 1948, marking the beginning of Hasselblad's camera entering the field of general photography. Its reliable performance and excellent imaging quality not only won the favor of professional photographers, but also attracted the attention of NASA. 1969, Apollo spacecraft flew to the moon for the first time. The photos of the first man landing on the moon were taken with Hasselblad camera, which became more famous. In the development history of medium format cameras, Hasselblad's position is also decisive: he took the lead in adopting the inter-mirror shutter and realized the flash synchronization speed of 1/500 seconds; The earliest use of automatic contraction aperture, get rid of the cumbersome aperture; Its shape design has not changed much for decades, but the improvement of internal structure and the increase of functions have spawned many new models. Today, its brand and technology have become an eternal classic in the history of human camera development! Victor hasselblad died in 1978, but the camera kingdom named after him is still growing.
