Introduction

to

the

Hasselblad

Camera

System

As

a

Hasselblad

owner,

you

have

in

your

possession

a

camera

of

exceptional

quality,

the

product

of

an

internationally

renowned

tradition

of

excellence

in

the

world

of

pho-

tography.

Victor

Hasselblad,

the

father

of

the

cameras

which

bear

his

namo,

was

himself

an

accomplished

photographer.

It

was

to

satisfy

his

own

exacting

standards

and

diverse

requirements

that

he

first

envisioned

the

Hasselblad

system:

a

me

dium

format

single

lens

reflex

camera

with

interchangeable

lenses

and

film

magazines.

A

photographer

first

and

businessman

second,

Victor

Hasselblad

would

never

sacrifice

quality

for

ease

ot

production.

To

this

day,

Hasselblad

cameras

are

pain-

stakingly

crafted

with

this

principle

in

ming.

The

Hasselblad

system

has

beon

taken

to

the

ends

of

the

earth

and

beyond

—

into

space,

to

earn

its

reputation

for

rellability

and

absolute

fidelity.

A

range

of

accessories

affords

limitless

flexibility

and

the

potential

forsuccesstul

photograohyin

any

application.

The

realisation

of

this

potential

is

of

course

dependantupon

the

ski,

care

and

judgement

of

the

photographer.

Lenses

Since

the

early

1950's

the

Hasselbladlenses

have

been

manufactured

by

Carl

Zeiss

in

Germany.

All

C

and

GF

lenses

manufactured

after

1957

can

be

used

with

the

553ELX.

F-type

lenses,

however,

can

only

be

used

with

Hasselolad

focal

cameras

manufactured

after

1976.

Use

to

learn

how

to

operate

your

camera.

The

knowledge

gained

from

reading

twill

give

you

access

to

the

Hassel-

potential.

Exploiting

the

potential

is

left

to

your

imagination!

all

shutter

speed

settings

except

you

should

keep

the

release

sure.

This

is

especially

important

at

shutter

speeds

from

to

1/15s.

If

you

relax

the

pressure

on

the

release

plate

too

soon,

the

auxiliary

will

terminate

the

‘exposure

of

two

of

the

shutter

remains

when

the

is

pressed.

Since

most

of

the

camera

operations

are

pre-released,

the

camera's

reaction

time

between

is

reduced

to

a

minimum,

or

any

means

that

closes

the

O.1sec

for

reliable

triggering.

Double
