Hasselblad XCD 65mm f/2.8 Aperture Series: Forested Mountains and Clouds (Hasselblad X1D II 50C)
This aperture series from f/2.8 through f/8 evaluates very far distance performance of the Hasselblad XCD 65mm f/2.8 including sharpness and overall lens correction, and lens symmetry.
Hasselblad XCD 65mm f/2.8 Aperture Series: Forested Mountains and Clouds
Includes images from f/2.8 through f/8 at up to full camera resolution.
The about $2750 Hasselblad XCD 65mm f/2.8 might be the best value in the lens lineup! Performance is so strong that a 100-megapixel sensor could capture considerably more detail. Which makes it imperative for Hasselblad to issue a camera with a 100MP sensor, which to me would make the appeal of the system far greater, given the extreme lens quality and outstanding quality control versus Fujifilm medium format.
