Hasselblad XCD 2.5/25V Lens

Wide-Angle Lens for Night Photography

Embrace the expansive view and eternalise the captivating interplay of light and shadow. The XCD 2,5/25V has a wide-angle focal length equivalent to 20mm and a maximum aperture of f/2.5. This lens furthers Hasselblad's legacy of stellar optical performance, turning nocturnal cityscapes, starry skies, and indoor portraits into extraordinary captures. It integrates the classic V-series design ethos with intuitive, user-friendly functionality, exuding elegance, both in its aesthetic and control.

The wide-angle view at a 20mm-equivalent focal length encompasses a wealth of environment and subject details, granting ample compositional and expressive space. The f/2.5 large aperture, coupled with Hasselblad's consistently excellent optical performance, enables the XCD 2,5/25V to encapsulate rich highlight and shadow details within its frame, capturing the hidden wonders even at dusk or after dark.

The XCD 2,5/25V features an optical structure of thirteen elements in ten groups, including four aspherical elements and three ED elements, meeting the high-resolution requirements of 100-megapixel sensors. This ensures images are sharp and crisp from the centre to the edges while effectively suppressing chromatic dispersion.

With its precise optical design, the XCD 2,5/25V maintains a compact body while offering superior resolution, colour fidelity, and a large aperture. Compared with the XCD 4/21 with an f/4 maximum aperture, the smaller and lighter XCD 2,5/25V boasts an f/2.5 maximum aperture.

The XCD 2,5/25V's robust close-up capabilities also showcase its exceptional optical quality. Its minimum focusing distance is 25cm with a maximum image scale of 1:5.8. When shooting, the wide-angle view aids in flexible composition, while the large aperture accentuates the subject, enhancing the expressiveness of close-up subjects like gourmet dishes and flowers.
