This is a classic accessory for the medium format system: the Hasselblad 100 Polaroid Instant Film Back. This magazine was a staple for studio and commercial photographers using the V-System (500C/M, 503CW, etc.) to quickly check lighting, focus, and exposure by taking an instant proof shot.

The back is designed to accept Type 100 peel-apart instant film (e.g., Fuji FP-100C or Polaroid 669, now discontinued), and it mounts to the Hasselblad body just like a standard film magazine. While the film is no longer manufactured, the back remains a highly sought-after collector item and a historical piece of studio equipment.

The construction is robust, featuring the precise engineering expected from Hasselblad.
