I totally agree! I just ordered it from the Hasselblad European shop. Had to trade in my XCD 4/21 to do it though. sigh.

This is unfair. I just got the 90V and I hoped my lens lust could be satisfied for a little while, but no... I'll take solace in using the amazing 21mm.

Seems like this thread should be in the Lens section, but oh well.  I have a 21mm and love it.  So, I went to look at the specs of the new 25mm and noted that the horizontal FOV is 10 degrees different.  Seems to me that is a lot.  The 21mm HFOV is 92 degrees and the 25mm is 82 degrees.  That makes the 25mm a bit less of an ultra wide.  The 25mm does focus a tad closer and it has the ergonomic advantages of the new generation of lenses.  And, presumably its auto focus motor is faster.  But, I would be interested in other's thoughts about this new lens vs. the "absolutely amazing" 21mm.

And crazy - it is available and one can really buy it!    Let's see how long :-)

Banding becomes an issue under certain lighting conditions

I'm selling a Hasselblad HCD 4-5.6/35-90 Lens. In excellent condition with only 9707 exposures. Complete with caps and Lens Hood and original box, which is a bit tatty. Missing pouch.

Prefer UK buyer but happy to ship wherever at buyers expense.

Looking for £2000.

FYI, I just purchased one off the US website.

PM message me, I am thinking of selling mine. I'm in NYC.

"like the X1DII" which is still available new, eg. here: https://www.fotomax.de/hasselblad-x1d-ii-50c-anthrazit.html
Anyway, if you want to call every item not available in the online store "discontinued" that´s ok with me. The internet is full of misinformation and roumors anyway.
