As if Hasselblads weren't expensive enough without adding a Ferrari badge....
Why anyone would want to identify their camera with a car manufacturer is beyond me. Great concept Ferrari have with their branding, get the punter to pay huge amounts to advertise for them.
Have to admit it looks nice though.

If you have to ask the price you can't afford it
But it does have that certain 'something'

Anything worth doing is worth doing to excess

The old Hasselblads were designed by a genius, a Swedish aircraft designer by the name of Sixten Sason, he also designed the Saab 92, 93, 95, 96 and 99 - the design language of the 99 survives today in the brand new 9-5.
Hasselblad is based in Gothenburg, the home of Volvo.
I know the both brands were tarnished by their divorce from GM and Ford, Saab nearly went to the brink, virtually uncared for in Sweden (the global car convoys and campaigns helped) but Hasselblad have much more in common with Saab or Volvo, than Ferrari.
The Red of the K-x is far more like the Ferrari Red, than the H4

The sort of people who can afford Hasselblads probably see Ferrari as a chav brand As if Hasselblads weren't expensive enough without adding a Ferrari badge....
As far as coloured cameras go, nothing can beat the Harlequin Kx.
