Hi, I'm interesting in this Hasselblad with 38mm Biogon but don't sure

which one will be suite my use from the different of model C lens and

CF lens. Most of my work is street shot with ISO400 BW film and I

always prefer the lens with a little less contrasty than the modern ones.

I'm also considering the easily use of camera accessories (filters, hood

etc.) ,can the Super Wide C model use with after market (67mm size)

wide angle filter and lens hood? Thank you so much for any input.

I just bought a 1969 SWC/M with non-"T" Black lense. It must be an early "M" conversion. Anyway, my first pictures, with Fuji, NPH, ISO 400 color film came out fine -- but I can tell there's a "learning curve" attached to this camera. I hae been told any SWC is great as long as it's working 7 thye lense is unmarked, etc. Mine cost $1,700.00

The C type lens uses a Series VIII drop in filter which is held in place by a retaining ring or

a round screw-in metal shade.

 

The CF type lens uses B60 bayonet mount filters and shades that can adapt to this mount.

 

Some adapters to other sizes may vignette the image. A search in this forum should lead

to a few examples.
