Hasselblad H4D Ferrari LE

Hasselblad make some of the worlds finest cameras, and the H4D is one of their finest. They have now collaborated with Ferrari (who don’t they collaborate with now?) to create a Limited Edition special edition – limited to just 499 units.

Finished in Ferrari’s unique colour, ‘Rosso Fuoco’ and bears the legendary Scuderia shield. The camera comes with a 80mm lens, it’s presented in an exclusively designed  and engineered box with a glass top. It has dual layers – one for the camera body, one for the lens and accessories. Each layer is lined in soft material to protect your investment. The glass top hints at this cameras usual purpose – to display and probably not use very often.

Dr. Larry Hansen, chairman and CEO of Hasselblad: “I am proud of the company’s achievements since the introduction of the newest generation of Hasselblad cameras, the H4 series, and feel very honored to be able to celebrate our success together with such a precious brand.”

I’m a big fan of Hasselblad, but I cannot really see the point of buying one with a Ferrari logo on it I’m afraid. However, if you’re a collector of all things Ferrari, you may want to get some more information from the website: http://www.hasselblad.co.uk/ferrari

Price: £18,999 ex. VAT
 Limited number series 1 to 499.
