Ordered the 25mm f/2.5V B&H yesterday and is to arrive FedEx tomorrow! I will make some non-scientific comparisons this weekend against my XCD lenses which include the discontinued 21MM f/4, 30mm f/3.5, 38mm f/2.5, and the 35-75mm f/3.5-4.5 which is on my X2D most of the time. Cheers

Looking forward to your comparisons, in particular to the 21mm

All X cameras can show shutter actuations of all XCD lenses

and even adapted H lenses

X cameras can even update firmware of adapted H lenses.

I noticed your "for sale" post in the classifieds, Marc. Are you planning on moving away from the Hasselblad X system?

I am Ian yes...whilst it is a very good to camera to use, and perfect in many ways, my needs are slightly wider than before as my projects change so I am having to move to another system. I will certainly miss working with it.

I have two arriving tomorrow, one from B&H and one from Hasselblad's online store. I don't need both. Before I return one of them, if anybody wants one, just let me know.

Last post by polychloros - May 09, 2024, 09:06:13 PM
Which back are you using with the 907x – the CFV 100C or CFV 50C? The newer 100C comes with a dedicated adaptor that provides a hotshoe mount. The 50C will only trigger a flash (or Pocket Wizard) via a sync cable.

Quote from: Larsb on May 08, 2024, 07:33:16 PMI'm really interesting in getting this lens.  Does anyone know when it will be available in Australia?  I checked all the usual AU websites today and there is no mention of it. Perhaps it will take a bit more time

Late next week in limited numbers, apparently. I paid for mine today and am in the first batch. Ordered directly from D1 by emailing them. I didn't see it on their website at all either. Was told arrival late next week by D1 Stores today.

Thanks Gordon - I put a deposit on the lens today (via CameraPro).  Hopefully mine will be part of the first batch too

thanks,

Lars


Looks like I already missed out on the first batch, but CameraPro advises there will be another batch of lenses in mid to late May.
