About this lens
The Hasselblad X-H Converter 0.8x is Hasselblad's focal-length reducer adapter - lets you use Hasselblad H-system medium-format lenses on the smaller X-system (X1D, X2D, 907X) bodies, reducing focal length by 0.8x and effectively speeding up apertures by ~2/3 stop.

Best for
A specialist Hasselblad focal-reducer adapter - the H-system (large medium-format: 6x4.5) had a extensive lens library built up over many years; the X-system (smaller medium-format) has a more limited native lens range. The X-H Converter 0.8x lets X-system users access H lenses while compensating for the smaller sensor - giving equivalent-to-native effective focal lengths.
Frequently asked questions
Why would I want this?
If you have an H-system lens collection but want to use the smaller X-system bodies, this adapter preserves autofocus and effectively gives you the same focal length as native XCD. Useful during a transition between systems or if you need an H-specific lens that doesn't have an XCD equivalent.
