Prices from outside the UK include about 20% import VAT. Over £135 the courier may add a handling fee, and customs duty can apply. Work out the full cost with the import cost calculator.
A * after the working status means it comes from the seller's description, not the title.
Before you buy a used 500EL & ELM
- The batteries are often dead: ask if it fires.
- Same lens and back checks as the 500C/M.
- Check the film back: light seals, frame spacing and that the dark slide is included.
- Check the shutter at every speed and the lens for haze or fungus.
- Pay through eBay. eBay's Money Back Guarantee covers a camera that doesn't work as described, but only if you pay through eBay. Our used film camera checklist has the tests to do the day it arrives.
Battery: NiCd pack (often needs replacing). The camera won't work without it. Battery finder →
Questions buyers ask
How much is a used 500EL & ELM worth?
On eBay UK today a working not stated, body only Hasselblad 500EL & ELM typically costs £612 delivered, with most between £521 and £769. A tested body on its own is about £900. These are asking prices, so many sell for a little less, especially with Best Offer.
Is it cheaper to buy a 500EL & ELM from Japan?
8 of the 61 Hasselblad 500EL & ELM listings on eBay UK right now are posted from Japan. Japanese dealers grade cosmetic condition carefully ("Near Mint", "Exc+5"), but you pay import VAT and sometimes a courier fee, and returns take longer. All the prices on this page already include the VAT estimate.
What battery does the 500EL & ELM take?
NiCd pack (often needs replacing).
Is a tested 500EL & ELM worth paying more for?
Right now tested examples are listed at about £289 (47%) more than ones where the seller doesn't say. A film-tested camera is the safest buy: an untested one can need a service costing £60 to £150.
What should I check before buying a used 500EL & ELM?
The batteries are often dead: ask if it fires. Same lens and back checks as the 500C/M.
Are these sold prices?
No, they're asking prices from live eBay listings, refreshed daily. We record the daily typical price, so the history chart shows how asking prices move.
