Claimed to be one of the best
digital cameras that has ever been produced in a licensing deal ; the Hasselblad H40-D does not just look good itself, it even makes you look good when caught on film.
Hasselblad has been a marquee name in photography since its founding in Sweden in 1841, and has been manufacturing cameras since the 1940s. The first consumer Hasselblad, the 1600F, hit
the market in 1948. A Hasselblad 500EL/70 went to the moon with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, taking some of the most famous photographs of all time.
