Hasselblad XPan II 35mm Rangefinder Camera kit with 45/4 lens - USA

Product Description:
Sometimes your world doesn't fit in the frame. Sometimes you want to think a bit outside the box. So for all those times when you need a little something extra, Hasselblad presents the Hasselblad X System and the XPan II the world's only truly dual-format 35 mm camera system. Building upon the success of the original XPan, The unique dual format XPan II produces high quality panorama or standard format images on regular 35 mm film. Every exposure uses the full width of the film, producing panorama shots with an image width equal to those produced by a 6x7 medium format camera. The two formats can be mixed in any order on the same roll of film. The 24x65 mm panorama format, together with the high quality XPan lenses (focal lengths 30 mm, 45 mm (standard lens, included in this Kit) and 90 mm) brings medium format image quality to 35 mm film. The XPan II features a wide range of convenient, user-friendly features such as automated film loading film transport, TTL exposure metering, and single or continuous exposure. The shutter release can be triggered by button, mechanically, via a dedicated electrical remote cable, or self-timer. And being a rangefinder camera, the Xpan II is very silent. Switching between formats is easily done with the simple twist of a knob. When changing format the camera automatically adjusts the film position to assure consistent film spacing and to avoid film waste. A bright viewfinder and coupled rangefinder
