A fresh and fast take on the standard zoom, the Hasselblad XCD 35-100mm f/2.8-4 E is a 26-76mm-equivalent lens for the mirrorless medium format X system. Covering wide-angle to portrait-length fields of view, and featuring a bright f/2.8-4 maximum aperture range, this zoom is an ideal single lens for everyday shooting and working with subjects ranging from vast landscapes to environmental portraits.
Everyday Flexible Focal Length
Featuring a useful zoom range, this lens is ideal for photographing everything from landscapes to city scenes to portraiture. Also, its bright f/2.8-4 maximum aperture range offers good control over depth of field and is suitable for working in low-light conditions.
The optical design includes a trio of aspherical elements and five low-dispersion glass elements, which reduce distortion and color fringing to ensure high sharpness and accurate rendering to match the demands of 100MP medium format sensors.
Fast and Intuitive Operation
An upgraded focus system utilizes both a stepping motor and a small, lightweight focusing group to realize fast and responsive autofocus performance. This internal focusing design also benefits manual focus operation for smoother, more predictable handling.
Suitable for use with the X2D II's updated AF-C mode for quick and continuous AF performance that benefits tracking and photographing moving subjects.
A small-but-powerful leaf shutter system offers a range of shutter speeds from 1/4000 sec to 68 min with flash sync possible at all speeds.
Elegant and Reliable Design
Streamlined metal lens barrel includes dedicated focus and zoom rings along with an assignable control ring, which can be set to adjustment shutter speed, aperture setting, ISO, EV, or even the subject type when used with the X2D II's subject detection mode.
The rings are engraved with the 'H' logo for improved feel and the lens also features a 'Hasselblad V' insignia nameplate and the lens's name is engraved on top of the barrel.
Despite offering a longer zoom range and faster maximum aperture, this 35-100mm f/2.8-4 is 19% lighter in weight and 10% shorter in length than the 35-75mm f/3.5-4.5 zoom—it weighs 2 lb and measures 5.4" long compared to the 2.5 lb weight and 5.7" length of the older lens.
