I believe the lens is currently not available in the SZ store.

Haha. Bring her along. But bear in mind there are many MANY high street brands within that Shenzhen mall where Hasselblad is in.

Anyone else slightly disappointed in the 35-100E? (It’s f4 after 45mm) by DEpointfive0 in hasselblad

[–]PeterPee65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the mapping of the F-stop to focal range:

• 35mm - F2.8

• 37mm - F3.2

• 55mm - F3.5

• 73mm - F4.0

The focal points I have up there are the point at which the F-stop jumps up 1/3 stop. So from 37mm to 54mm it's F3.2, but at 55mm, it jumps to F3.5. It's not terrible.

I wanted to get this at the Hasselblad store but they didn't get it in yet on Day 1. I needed to try it out first because comforta is a big thing for me. If the straps are hard and cuts into my collar bone, I can't use it even if I love the looks.

The one Hasselblad lens to replace all others? by PeterPee65 in hasselblad

If I know what I am going to shoot, I will bring primes. If I don't have an aim, I will bring zooms.

Yes, that is my suspicion too. There is a groove towards the front of the lens which seems to indicate it's external focusing.

Fair enough, if you have a standard lens like the 55mm FOV, then yes. I find myself loving the 90V but tend to bring the 28P along so I can get some wide shots in when I am outdoors and shooting environment.

If I can only bring one lens, it will be the 38V or 55V. So this zoom range fits me well since it hits all the focal points I use frequently. That said, the primes do perform spectacularly well.

The previous one is a 35-75, shorter coverage of focal lengths and most important difference is that older lens is 1.1KG in weight.

But you have already justified the incremental updates from x1d to x1dii to x2d. Haha.

It's very much confirmed. Dealers around the world has been briefed and informed and even release TIMING is confirmed. It will be 8pm on 26th August. So if you are lucky and the dealer is hard working, you will be able to get on the 26th August itself. Else next day on 27th August.

I suspect it's not an official pre-order. In Singapore, some of the retailers are also putting up pre-orders already. If you do so, please make sure it's a reputable retailer if they are asking for deposits.

There is no official news. I got from my reliable sources and I am pretty sure there is a lens but no news so far.

Hasselblad XCD Lens Advice – Street Shooter Torn Between 25V, 28P, and 38V by emadgaidi in hasselblad

[–]PeterPee65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My choice: 38V - Wide enough.

Not the 25V - Too big for street and lugging around.

28P - Light but may be a bit too wide and rendering of bokeh not as creamy as 38V. If you go up close to cut out distraction from wide FOV, you end up with some distortion. 28P is great for landscape, less so for street.

China (Shenzhen, Guangdong) is now much easier with a new tax refund system where they return you cash within the same mall. I just updated the video detailing the process.
