All HC lenses have been specially formulated for the H system
to produce the extremely high performance expected from
Hasselblad to meet the demands from conventional and digital
photography alike. In addition to extreme sharpness, the design
also incorporates a soft, pleasant looking boké (the visual quality
of the out-of-focus areas of the image). All lenses feature an
electronically controlled central shutter designed to extremely
fine tolerances for supreme accuracy that also provides flash synchronization
up to 1/800s. Speeds are from 18 hours to 1/800 sec
with film and 32s to 1/800 sec with a digital back. All lenses have
a very rapid automatic focus capability with instant manual override.
To ensure reliable and fast autofocus in low contrast and low
light conditions, a focusing-assist light (on the grip) is automatically
activated. Aperture and shutter control is set via the control
wheels on the camera grip.
As a general rule, lens shades should always be fitted to achieve
optimum performance. Protective filters (UV / Sky) should also be
considered at least when working outdoors in harsh conditions.
(See Accessories section for information about the CF Adapter that
allows the use of C type lenses from the Hasselblad V-system).
