CB Lenses

The Carl Zeiss DistagonŽ T* 3.5/60 CB lens is a universal wide angle lens for use in all Hasselblad-cameras of the 200 and 500 series. Its exceptionally high imaging quality recommends it for many demanding jobs in professional advertising and industrial photography. This lens is particularly good for photographs of interiors with lots of detail and people, and specially for group photographs.

The Carl Zeiss PlanarŽ T* 2.8/80 CB lens is a fast standard lens for universal use in all Hasselblad-cameras of the 200 and 500 series. It produces images with a perspective which is very similar to the perspective of the human eye. Thanks to special mathematical findings in lens design and the application of improved technologies, Carl Zeiss has been able to produce this optical design with 6 lenses, while at the same time improving the straylight behaviour. With its extraordinarily good field planeing properties, it is suitable for practically all areas of photography.

Preferred use: all-purpose

The Carl Zeiss TessarŽ T* 4.8/160 CB lens can be used with all Hasselblad-cameras of the 200 and 500 series. It displays very good straylight behaviour and, as with the other two CB-lenses, its design takes special ergonomic findings into account. All parts can be operated with gloves on and are rounded for pleasant handling. The filter bayonet stays matt black permanently and absorbs any knocks on the front rim of the lens - a guarantee for long service life. With its focal length the TessarŽ T*4.8/160 CB lens is the universal choice for portrait photographs and similar motives.

Preferred use: portraits. people, wedding photography
