Hasselblad HASSELBLAD ZEISS 50mm Distagon FE f/2.8 T* WIDE ANGLE LENS | $2847.95 | | |
This lens is the ideal choice for dimly light interiors, for example.
The Distagon FE 2.8/50 mm lens with an angular field of 75° is a top-class wide-angle lens which has been designed for use with the 200-series cameras from Hasselblad. As a built-in leaf shutter is not required for the cameras mentioned, it was possible to increase the maximum aperture to f/2.8, a high value for a wide-angle lens intended for a medium-format camera.
Thanks to the superb correction of distortion and all monochromatic and chromatic aberrations, the image quality of this lens is excellent. Finally, the design with nine lens elements is very compact despite the speed and large angular field. This is a particular achievement in view of the fact that Ü owing to the mirror motion Ü the distance of the last lens surface from the film must be about 35% longer than the focal length.
The optical design is such that, when focusing, the spacing between internal lens elements is changed (Floating Lens Elements). This considerably improves image quality in the close-up range and makes it possible to reduce the shortest focusing distance to 0.32 m.
