East Wind / Dong Feng 'Hasselblad Copy'

Probably the most rare Chinese camera, built in Shanghai to comemorate the 20 years Chinese Revolution. Development and production were personally ordered by Mme. Jiang Qing, Mao’s 4th wife and were done as a demonstration for the capabilities of the chinese industry. The camers is in very fine condition and good working order with chrome 2.8/80mm no.72SA-210002 (black UV filter) and chrome 4/150mm no.65SA-210003 (both original caps). The magazine with serial no.701001 (the body without serial number) - probably the first camera made!
