Overview

The Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* 150mm f/4 CF is a classic medium-telephoto lens for Hasselblad V system, praised for its sharpness and smooth rendering, especially for portraits. Its four-element Sonnar design delivers excellent image quality even wide open, with T* coating adding minimal contrast. Build is solid but heavy at 850g; the long focus throw aids precise manual focusing. Weaknesses include a scratch-prone rear element and moderate close focus. It suits portrait, landscape, and general telephoto work, though some may prefer the longer 180mm.
