Pairing a flattering focal length with an especially compact, lightweight design, the Hasselblad XCD 75mm f/3.4 P is a short portrait-length prime that's ideal for full-length shoots and group portraits, as well as street, landscape, and other general applications. As an XCD P-series lens, this lens prioritizes portability and nimbleness and this 75mm option sports a faster-than-usual f/3.4 maximum aperture for improved depth of field control and handheld use in available lighting. Equivalent to a 59mm lens on full-frame, this slightly long normal/slightly short portrait-length lens offers a versatile field of view that suits full-length solo portraits and group shots, as well as offering a more selective perspective with street, landscape, and still life subjects.
The maximum f/3.4 aperture is slightly faster than other P-series lenses, suiting the portrait nature of this lens and affording more control over depth of field. The optical design include aspherical and extra-low dispersion elements, which contribute to sharp and color-correct image quality that matches the high-resolution demands of 100MP medium format sensors. The autofocus system utilizes both a stepping motor and a small, lightweight focusing group to realize fast and responsive autofocus performance with high precision. This internal focusing design also benefits manual focus operation for smoother, more predictable handling.
A small-but-powerful leaf shutter system offers a range of shutter speeds from 1/2000 sec to 68 min with flash sync possible at all speeds. Designed to be as small and portable as possible, this lens weighs 14 oz and measures 2.8"-long when attached to the camera body. Compared to the XCD 65mm f/2.8, this lens is 45% lighter and 24% shorter, making it better suited to street, travel, and on-location photography. Streamlined metal lens barrel includes a single focusing ring, which is engraved with the 'H' logo for improved feel. The lens also has its name engraved on top of the barrel.
