One lens, infinite possibilities. From ultra-wide to wide focal lengths, it caters to most wide-angle photography scenarios. Without the need to change lenses, swiftly adjust to desired focal lengths and capture grand landscapes, sweeping interiors, or environmental portraits exactly how you envision.
A stepping motor, paired with the focusing drive mechanism of the gearbox and a small and light focusing lens group, more accurately, rapidly, and quietly controls the movement of the focusing lens group. Whether in autofocus or manual focus, a smooth experience is ensured. When used with the PDAF technology of a Hasselblad 100-megapixel mirrorless medium format camera, focusing is quicker and more responsive.
The lens’s small but powerful leaf shutter supports shooting with flash synchronisation at all shutter speeds with a flash sync speed of up to 1/2000s. Even under mixed light sources of flash and sunlight, you can freely explore creative inspirations and freeze every shining moment.
The lens body is crafted from metal for a subtle but timeless appeal. It is not only stable and reliable but also offers an exceptional user experience. It adopts an elegant and streamlined design with the “H” logo print engraved on both the focus ring and the zoom ring. It also features a nameplate on the barrel with branding and the “V” insignia, lending a refined and enduring beauty to your photographic journey.
