Hasselblad B50 lens shade/hood for 80mm C Planar (40118). Condition - 6E [3922].
Short Description
This is the latest plastic version.
The 80mm shade was, in its first version, made of black anodized aluminium and made available about 1961. Initial code was SEMOC and later 40018. The earliest and rare version of the SEMOC has a 'wrinkle' finish paint rather than the smooth black paint.
A plastic version replaced the metal one in 1974 and used the same code number but is is slightly larger in diameter than the metal one. It is used on the 80mm C series lens and for the early 80mm Planar F with B50 mount.
