Berlin, Germany—reported by Elite Traveler, the private jet lifestyle magazine
The iconic Hasselblad H4D-40 Ferrari Limited Edition camera has been nominated for the German Design Award ahead of the IFA (Internationale Funkausstellung) trade show for consumer electronics and home appliances. A true masterpiece, the $27,122 will be exhibited at the Berlin show – the biggest of its kind in the world and visited by almost a quarter of a million people last year.
Hasselblad will sell just 499 units of its H4D-40 Ferrari Limited Edition, which comes painted in Ferrari’s own ‘rosso fuoco’ and sports the legendary Ferrari Racing Shield emblem. The camera itself boasts all the Hasselblad H4D-40 model features, including the company’s world-acclaimed True Focus technology. It ships with an 80mm lens and its own, bespoke glass display box.
