    Differences of XCD 38v?

    Hi. Are there differences in quality between actual and 1 to 2 years old XCD 38v lenses? Did Hasselblad change anything between the first patches and the actual lenses? There where some users they had problems with corners…? Meaning buying a 3500 clicks lens should be the same as a new one...

    Rumors of new XCD lenses?

    Are there any rumors about upcoming XCD lenses? I’m kind of ready to buy a XCD21 but think of my purchase of the 65mm and the new 55mm which came out a year later... The 21mm is one of the oldest Hasselblad lenses. What is a “good” price for a ex demo lens from a dealer? Used xcd21 are rare.

    Laowa 20mm Shift Lens on 907x? Or the more expensive Canon TS 24mm? Easy way out would be the XCD 21mm...

    Hi! There just reports about the Laowa 20mm Shift Lens on the Fuji GFX - but how does it perform on the Hasselblad 907x?
