The Hasselblad 500EL - Moon Camera

12 modified Hasselblad 500EL cameras remain on the Moon, fitted with Zeiss lenses but lacking their film magazines that were brought back to Earth.

The Hasselblad camera shown below is a replica produced by Hasselblad 10 years after the Apollo 11 landing. It is very similar to those used on the Moon and is a very high quality camera still used today.
