Used Hasselblad Automatic Bellows #40517

The bellows extension provides variable extension from 63.5 (2.5") to 202 mm (8") with all Hasselblad interchangeable lenses from 50 to 500 mm focal length. The scales on the bellow's rail show the actual extension and the exposure value reduction when used with the Makro-Planar CF135 mm lens. A sliding quick-coupling plate, with tripod threads, makes it possible to move the bellows and camera up to 140 mm (5.5") in relation to the subject, without aFecting the extension setting.

An adjustable accessory lens shade is attached with suitable lens mounting rings to the lens front mount. The rings feature a slot for gelatin filter holders.

NOTE! The light metering function of the 200-series cameras will be slightly restricted when using the bellows extension.
