I wonder how good Hasselblad H1.7X Teleconverter is.Can anyone share their opinions?Does it perform well with 35-90 or it's too dark to focus? How is the bokeh and overall image quality?How good is it with other lenses?Thank you!Oleksiy
I have the teleconverter and use it on the H3DII-31. It is outstanding. It does not work on the 50-110 zoom so not sure if it works on the 35-90 zoom. I can say that the converter really does not result in any detectable image degradation --- at least on the 31. I have used it on the 100, 150, 210 and 80mm
Great. Thanks for the reply.Hasselblad say that only HCD 28, HC 35, HC 50-110 are not supported.http://www.hasselbladusa.com/products/h-sy...erter-h17x.aspxI'd like on opinion on it with HCD 4.0-5.6/35-90 too.
Hi Oleksiy,I am afraid the 1.7x converter will not work on the new zoom also.Best,David
Ok, thank you.Yes, unfortunately it won't work with 35-90.
However, I own the converter 1,7 and I second the previous opinion on image quality: it is outstanding!Best,Clem
Sometimes you need the 1.7x because you don't want to get too close to the natives...
