Our Verdict
From the knurled focus ring with signature ‘H’ branding to unique push/pull AF and MF functionality, the Hasselblad XCD 25V f/2.5 Lens combines intuitive ergonomics with beautiful design language found on newer lenses such as the XCD 90V F/2.5 and XCD 55V F/2.5.
The 20mm equivalent full-frame focal width, which the XCD 2,5/25V provides, is the widest for the system that supports the medium format platform with an ultra wide lens for landscapes, astrophotography, interiors and architecture.
Thanks to the lens’ bright maximum aperture and excellent light gathering characteristics, you can also capture stunning environmental portraits and other subject-driven genres. This is also supported by the leaf shutter, which delivers flash synchronisation at all speeds up to the maximum 1/4000s, for which the latest Hasselblad lenses are renowned.
Image quality is extremely high due to the advanced optical design, which includes a number of special lens elements to reduce aberrations, control colour fringing and reduce other artefacts. The lens can also resolve over 100 megapixels, as required for high-resolution X-Series sensor designs.
With close minimum focusing, high magnification and precise control over lens features, the Hasselblad XCD 25V f/2.5 is another desirable addition, which will no doubt become widely adopted by medium format photographers.
