Hasselblad 503CX Golden Blue

The Hasselblad 503CX Golden Blue is a special-edition variant of the 503CX medium-format 6x6 SLR, part of Hasselblad's V-system. It combines the standard 503CX body architecture with a distinctive gold-coloured trim and blue leatherette covering, positioning it as a collector-oriented release rather than a working tool.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the 503CX Golden Blue have ranged from around £2,000 to £5,500, with a median of roughly £3,300 across the recorded sales. The 2022–2023 results cluster at the firmer end (£4,000–£5,300), suggesting the model is worth more today than it was a decade ago, though the value a given example sells for at saleroom level remains highly condition-sensitive and depends on whether the original finder, magazine and presentation packaging are present.
