Post by: JKendig on May 27, 2009, 01:42:12 am
Has anyone tested or used the new Hasselblad 35-70 zoom lens and can tell me if it is compatible with the H1 and H2 bodies.

It is not compatible with either the H1 or H2, only the H2F with a Hasselblad CF digital back or the H3D/H3DII cameras.

Hi,

I recently shot a wedding with the only copy of the lens here in Australia. The Af was fast and the lens provided great results, super sharp! It is also I think very  well balanced on my H3D 31. It was a pleasure to use can't wait to get my hands back on a copy!

Regards

Rodney

Thank you. I've heard nothing but good things about this lens. Now, if I could only find one for sale.
