Description

The Hasselblad XCD 135mm f/2.8 lens and X Converter 1.7 kit is made for Hasselblad X system medium format cameras. The short telephoto lens offers a 135mm focal length for portraits and landscapes. Attach the included converter when your composition calls for a longer 230mm focal length.

Without the converter, the lens provides a 105mm full-frame equivalent field of view. With the converter attached, that equivalent becomes 178mm. These two options let you choose a tighter view while using the same lens.

This kit suits Hasselblad X system photographers who work with portrait and landscape subjects. The lens also has a 1m close-focus setting. Before using the converter, account for its change to the available aperture range.

Benefits

  • Two focal lengths – Use the XCD lens at 135mm or attach the X Converter 1.7 for 230mm.
  • Portrait-friendly view – At 135mm, its 105mm full-frame equivalent provides a short telephoto perspective for portraits.
  • Landscape option – The 135mm setting also gives landscape photographers a telephoto view for selecting distant details.
  • Longer reach – The converter changes the full-frame equivalent from 105mm to 178mm.
  • Close focusing – A 1m close-focus setting lets you work nearer to a subject than the lens’s longer focal length might suggest.
  • Documented image scales – The kit lists image magnifications of 1:5.8 and 1:3.4.
  • Clear aperture choices – The lens spans f/2.8-32; the converter configuration spans f/4.8-32.

Who is this for?

The XCD 135mm f/2.8 belongs to the Hasselblad X system and is designed for its medium format cameras. The supplied X Converter 1.7 is intended for this XCD 135mm lens. The kit brings both components together for photographers who want the stated focal-length choices.

Portrait photographers can use the 135mm lens with its 105mm full-frame equivalent view. Landscape photographers can use that focal length to frame a narrower portion of a scene. For a more distant subject, the converter provides a 230mm focal length and a 178mm full-frame equivalent.

Why choose this kit?

The included X Converter 1.7 is intended specifically for the XCD 135mm f/2.8 lens. Together, they provide two focal lengths within one Hasselblad X system kit. You can start with the lens’s short telephoto view and attach the converter when you need tighter framing.

The change in focal length also changes the maximum aperture. The lens starts at f/2.8 on its own, while the converter configuration starts at f/4.8. Both listed aperture ranges extend to f/32. That difference matters when selecting exposure settings for either configuration.

The 1m close-focus setting adds another framing consideration at the lens’s native focal length. The listed 1:5.8 and 1:3.4 image scales describe the kit’s magnification options. Together with the two fields of view, these details help photographers plan a shot before changing configurations.
