Hasselblad XCD 55mm f/2.5 V
See the world as your eye does. The Hasselblad XCD 55mm f/2.5V delivers a 43mm full-frame equivalent focal length — a perspective that mirrors natural human vision. Pair that with a generous f/2.5 maximum aperture and you have a lens that excels at full and half-length portraits, documentary work, still life, and the kind of everyday photography where authenticity matters most.
At just 372g, the XCD 55V punches well above its weight class. A compact optical design, lightweight focusing module, and optimised leaf shutter keep it travel-friendly without any compromise to image quality. And when shooting into bright light sources at narrow apertures, the leaf shutter blades produce Hasselblad's signature eight-point starburst — a subtle but distinctive creative touch.
Precision Optics Built for 100MP
Nine elements in eight groups — including two aspherical elements, one ED element, and one specially crafted large-diameter aspherical element — form an optical design that meets the exacting resolution demands of a 100-megapixel sensor. Every element is carefully selected and ground to Hasselblad's standards, ensuring exceptional light transmittance, suppressed chromatic dispersion, and faithful colour reproduction from corner to corner.
Fast, Accurate Autofocus
An upgraded focusing module pairs a linear stepping motor with a smaller, lighter focusing group to eliminate backlash and deliver precise, repeatable focus positioning. Combined with the PDAF technology of the X2D 100C, the result is autofocus that is fast, flexible, and confident — whether tracking a moving subject or locking onto fine detail in a still life.
Compact Leaf Shutter, Full Creative Control
The XCD 55V's redesigned leaf shutter is smaller than its predecessors yet maintains the same precision and reliability. It operates quietly — ideal for unobtrusive documentary and portrait work — while still delivering shutter speeds up to 1/2000 sec and full flash synchronisation at every speed.
