Overview

The Hasselblad HC 100 mm f/2.2 is the fastest lens in the H-series, offering a bright aperture for low-light and portrait work. Optically, it uses a simple planar design with a large front element to minimize distortion and maintain a shallow angle of incidence on the sensor. It is relatively lightweight at 780g and compatible with teleconverters and extension tubes for added versatility. The lens pairs well with the HTS tilt-shift adapter and 1.7x teleconverter, though the latter may show some degradation when stopped down. It suits medium format users seeking a fast, flexible normal lens.
