Hasselblad 500 C (1969)

The Victor Hasselblad company was originally formed to produce aerial cameras for the Swedish airforce. The first civilian Hasselblad Camera (1600F) was introduced at a press conference in 1948. It was an instant success. The Hasselblad 6 x 6 cm (2 1/4 x 2 1/4 in) square format used size 120 film and the square format eliminated the need to turn the camera sideways for landscape or portrait.

The primary use of the Hasselblad is commercial and portrait photography. The extremely high quality Zeiss lenses complement this high end camera and provide very high quality images.

A unique system consists of a body, lens removable film magazine and interchangable viewfinders. Each lens incorporates its own leaf shutter. The design has been copied by several other medium format camera manufacturers. Although recent models incorporate electronics, the bulk of the cameras are totally mechanical incorporating intricate interlocks. The use of interchangable film backs allow a photographer to change film types in mid roll.

Rollei 35B (1969)

While the Rollei 35 launched in 1966 became a great seller, other camera manufacturers following its success, introduced compact 35mm cameras which were far cheaper than the Rollei 35 (some of them were about half the price of a Rollei 35). Subsequently, Rollei developed and released the Rollei B35 - an intermediate version of the Rollei 35 in 1969.
