filter, please contact your Hasselblad dealer for assistance.

• Avoid frequent and severe temperature changes and be particularly careful

in humid environments. Allow the equipment to acclimatize whenever pos-

sible before use. Try to ensure the storage conditions in such environments

are as dry as possible.

• Prevent dust and grit from getting into your equipment. In coastal areas take

measures to protect your equipment from sand and salt water spray.

DISPOSAL

If you need to dispose of a 503CW, CFV or batteries, please do so in an

environmentally friendly manner at the local waste plant/ recycling centre

or similar.

SERVICE

Return your equipment to a service centre for occasional checking and

preventive maintenance to ensure optimal reliability.

• Avoid physical shocks to the 503CW and CFV. Some form of protective case or

camera bag is advised for transportation.

• Hasselblad equipment is much sought after and you should take obvious

steps to prevent theft. Never leave it visible in an unattended car, for exam-

ple. Separate and specific camera insurance cover should be considered by

professional users.

World class results are possible with Hasselblad equipment, witnessed by so

many front covers, international advertising campaigns, famous portraits, his-

torical events, etc. But it is the combination of this ﬁne equipment and the abili-

ties of the photographer that produce memorable images. Some of this skill is just

sound photographic practice and sometimes it is product speciﬁc. The following

books are recommended for those that wish to immerse themselves in the world

of Hasselblad. The information in them varies from general interest to completely

invaluable.
