    Overview

    The Hasselblad XCD 35-100mm F2.8-4 E is a versatile medium-format zoom with strong sharpness from 35-70mm but softer at 100mm, described as a '35-70mm zoom with an overdrive range'. It exhibits unusual bokeh from leaf shutters at high speeds and onion ring bokeh. Build quality is premium with three rings that can be confusing. Autofocus is adequate for most uses but not class-leading. It suits existing Hasselblad users wanting a convenient mid-length zoom, though it is expensive at nearly $5K.
