Hasselblad XCD 90mm f/2.5 V (MKII)
The Hasselblad XCD 90mm f/2.5 MKII V Lens is a bright, portrait-length prime built for medium format excellence. Equivalent to 71mm on full-frame, it delivers the flattering compression and subject separation that portrait and still life photographers demand. The f/2.5 maximum aperture produces beautifully smooth bokeh that draws the eye straight to your subject, while stopping down reveals Hasselblad's signature eight-point starburst on bright light sources â a hallmark of the leaf shutter design. At just 551g, it's 11% lighter than its predecessor, making it a compelling upgrade for photographers who want flagship optical performance without the bulk.
Key Specifications
- Medium Format 44 Ă 33mm sensor coverage | f/2.5âf/32 aperture range
- 71mm full-frame equivalent field of view
- Bright portrait-length prime
- 11% lighter than the XCD 3,2/90
- New AF module with push-pull focus ring (AF/MF switching)
- Customisable control ring
- Upgraded leaf shutter with 1/4000 sec flash sync at all speeds
- Apochromatic optical design with ED and large-diameter aspherical elements
Precision Optics, Outstanding Imagery
Nine elements in six groups â including one ED element and one large-diameter aspherical element â form an apochromatic optical design that delivers accurate colour correction and exceptional sharpness across the frame. Hasselblad engineers select high-quality glass and grind each element to meet the resolution demands of 100MP medium format sensors. The result is a lens that captures the most subtle nuances of light, shadow, and colour with confidence.
Fast, Light, and Accurate Autofocus
The redesigned focusing module pairs a linear stepping motor with a lighter, smaller focusing group to eliminate backlash and achieve fast, precise stops. Combined with the phase-detection autofocus (PDAF) technology of the X2D 100C, the lens locks focus quickly and holds it accurately â whether you're tracking a subject or fine-tuning manually via the intuitive push-pull focus ring.
Upgraded Leaf Shutter
The XCD 2,5/90V features an upgraded large-aperture leaf shutter that is smaller and quieter than its predecessor, yet maintains the same precision performance. It reaches up to 1/4000 sec â the fastest sync speed among medium format lenses â with full flash synchronisation available at every shutter speed. Ideal for controlled studio work and bright outdoor conditions alike.
Elegant Industrial Design
Precision-machined from metal, the XCD 2,5/90V carries two engraved rings â a focus ring and a newly added customisable control ring â each bearing the Hasselblad âHâ logo, crafted with a 0.3mm drill bit in a nod to the iconic HC/HCD lens aesthetic. The control ring can be assigned to your preferred function for quick, distraction-free access while shooting. Compatible with both X-system and 907X cameras, this lens is a refined homage to Hasselbladâs heritage and a bold statement in its own right.
