Hasselblad 50-110mm f/3.5-4.5 HC (optical differences)

chimbos_matt · Dec 6, 2017

Is there an optical difference between the newest Hasselblad 50-110mm f/3.5-4.5 HC (part # 3026511) and the older version (part # 3023511)? I know the synch is 1/800s vs. 1/2000s (I can live with 1/800)

This will be mounted on an H6D-100c (just ordered and should arrive in the coming week or so).

Thanks for any feedback.

I am sure it is no different optically.

Only downside is weight.

the new model has a shutter speed of 1/2000 for the new h6 bodies

It is one of the highly rated lenses. Some more links to read and view. It is heavy for handholding but some people use it that way also.

Thank you for your input and links..

For a little more money I can get a used Hasselblad HC 80mm f/2.8 Lens (orange dot). I am think this is a better option for a first lens, faster, smaller and latest version so 1/2000 sync and it exactly in the middle of the range of the zoom.

Thoughts?

It is optical no different.

It's a brilliant lens. I don't really mind the size. But when you use something like the 80mm and then use the 50-110 you really notice the difference.

Thank you for the input...

I got the tracking number for the H6D-100c and ordered two lenses.

Hasselblad 50-110mm f/3.5-4.5 HC

Hasselblad 210mm f/4 HC

Based on which focal length I use most I will see about adding a smaller prime later.

Look forward to contributing to the Medium format, time to sell a few of my Nikon lenses as I will primarily be using it for kids sports.

My guess is that the Hasselblad 50-110mm f/3.5-4.5 HC will spend a lot of time on your camera. I'm interested in knowing when focal lengths will fit your fancy after you spend some time behind the respective lenses. Enjoy your kit

If sharpness is as good as I hope it will probably be I would probably get a prime not covered within that range like a 24mm or something wider. Everything arrives on Monday..

You also have some great work on your website..

50-110 is very very sharp,I call it an allrounder. Very heavy though!

I would suggest chimbos_matt to consider HCD 28mm,which is also a reputable for IQ.

I dont have it but waiting for right opportunity to add to my gadgets.

Yes, even heavier than the Pentax 28-45. The 50-110 is a large lens. I think he's considering primes in ranges that aren't covered by the zoom. Looks like he's off to start with a fine camera and lens selection.

Best in photography to you
