Hasselblad Supreme Wide Angle

The Hasselblad Supreme Wide Angle is a medium format 6x6 camera introduced in the mid-1950s with a fixed Zeiss Biogon 38mm wide-angle lens, intended for architectural and landscape work where the Hasselblad system's standard reflex bodies could not accept a lens this wide. It was the first in Hasselblad's non-reflex wide-angle line and was later succeeded by the SWC.

At UK auction, hammer prices for the Supreme Wide Angle have ranged roughly £1,000–£3,000 across the recorded sales, with a median near £1,450 — these are wholesale saleroom results and exclude buyer's and seller's commission. As of 2026 the camera still sells for a premium relative to later SWC bodies when the example is complete and cosmetically clean, while rougher bodies have settled toward the lower end of that range. The £3,000 result from 2020 sits well above the rest of the sample and should be read as an outlier rather than a typical price.
