    Comments about Hasselblad Normal 100mm f/3.5 CFi Zeiss Planar Lens for 500 Series Cameras:

    I am using this lens on a H3Dll 39Mp camera.

    I can honestly say that it is one of the sharpest lenses I have ever owned.

    Build quality is outstanding - as one would expect from Zeiss.

    My only crib is that it cannot be used in multi-shot mode - but, that's not its fault. It was first made before multi-shot was even a twinkle in an engineer's eye!

    But, for untethered work it is without equal in my camera bag.

    Hasselblad 100/3.5 review

    By Jan

    from New York City

    Comments about Hasselblad Normal 100mm f/3.5 CFi Zeiss Planar Lens for 500 Series Cameras:

    I bought Hasselblad 100/3.5 CF in 1996 and I enjoyed it since. The lens is simply superb in terms of sharpness. If you love sharp images this lens does it. Needless to say that the lens is well crafted. Would you expect anything less from Hasselblad ?

    Expertise: Over 15 years as a serious amateur

    Problems Encountered: None. Over 11 years old and functioning perfectly. I wouldn't trade it for any other lens or brand of similar focal length.

    Previous Equivalent Item Owned: Contax 50/1.4, Leica 50/2

    Items I Recommend: Polarizer. filter if you shoot landscape
