Lens Overview — Hasselblad 150mm f/4
Key Features — Hasselblad 150mm f/4
150mm Medium Format Prime: Equivalent to a short telephoto on 35mm, this focal length is well-suited for portraiture, detail shots, and moderate telephoto work on Hasselblad V-series cameras.
Zeiss Sonnar Optical Design: The Sonnar formula is known for its contrast and sharpness, making this lens a respected choice for medium format image quality.
Zeiss T* Multi-Coating: T* anti-reflective coating reduces flare and ghosting, helping maintain contrast and color fidelity in challenging lighting conditions.
Hasselblad V Mount: Designed for the Hasselblad V system, it is compatible with classic bodies such as the 500C/M, 501CM, 503CW, and their associated film and digital backs.
Leaf Shutter Design: The built-in Compur leaf shutter syncs with flash at all shutter speeds, a significant advantage for studio and location work with flash lighting.
f/4 Maximum Aperture: Provides sufficient light-gathering capability for a medium format telephoto prime while keeping the lens to a manageable size and weight.

Description — Hasselblad 150mm f/4
The Hasselblad 150mm f/4 Zeiss Sonnar C T* is a prime lens designed for the Hasselblad V mount system, falling into the telephoto focal length range with a fixed 150mm focal length. It is built specifically for the medium format camera system, making it a dedicated option for V-series Hasselblad shooters. The maximum aperture of f/4 provides solid exposure control for a medium format telephoto.
Focus is entirely manual, with no autofocus available, which aligns well with the careful, considered approach that medium format shooting often calls for. A 67mm filter thread makes it compatible with a broad range of commonly available filters. The lens weighs 700g and carries no image stabilization, so steady shooting technique or support is recommended.
This is a straightforward, spec-driven prime for photographers already invested in the Hasselblad V ecosystem who need a reliable 150mm telephoto option.
