The Square Perspective: Exploring the Hasselblad 500C and 6x6 Film
This blog post delves into my experience with the Hasselblad 500C, a legendary medium format camera known for its modular design and 6x6 square format. After purchasing the camera in April, it quickly became my primary tool, capturing most of my work this year. I explore its iconic features, including the Carl Zeiss 80mm f/2.8 lens, 0 Hz haze filter, and Proxar close-up rings, and reflect on the creative possibilities offered by the larger 6x6 film format. The post also touches on Hasselblad's rich history, the benefits and challenges of square compositions, and how this timeless camera bridges my past experiences with modern aspirations in photography.
