Hasselblad XCD 65mm f/2.8 Reviews

Better than the 55

By Dennis
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2025-01-10

The 55v focal length feels flat to me. Not a fan of the new 43mm focal length that is currently being pushed along by Leica. I love the compression of the 50 and it makes an image pop and have character. Whereas the 43 focal length feels sterile. Giving up the markings and focus clutch is compromise I’m willing to accept for the clean and beautiful lens design of these older xcd lenses. *I exchanged the 55v for this lens and the process was incredibly smooth with B&H*

Great Lens...   But heavy compared to the new V lenses

Great image quality. very good focusing. But noticeably much heavier than the new 90 2.5 V Will use this for street photography. glad that I just bought it.
