This lens features a new shutter that allows for shutter speeds up to 1/2000s. This retro focus lens has a 95 diagonal angle of view making it the most extreme wide-angle lens presently available in the medium-format. Outstanding results are achieved throughout the focusing range exhibiting excellent corner-to-corner sharpness. Whether through requirement or for effect, this lens can prove very useful for a wide range of assignments. Please note, however, that this special lens is designed specifically for the H3D camera model and is for digital use only. Consequently it is not compatible with the film magazine HM 16-32, the film magazine HMi 100 or the Converter H1.7x. A camera as fast and versatile as an H system model demands the very best from its lenses. All HC lenses are engineered to ensure optimal performance and image quality, whether using film or digital. No short-cuts, no compromises. All HC lenses have electronic shutter mechanisms and feature Multi Coating for efficient stray light elimination, an integral focus drive motor, and instant access to manual focus without switching between manual and auto focus. The HC lenses use metal, not plastic, wherever possible, in order to ensure their reliability and durability year after year. In addition, the special optical design of the lenses provides a uniquely soft, smooth quality to the blurred or out-of-focus areas of the image. All lenses use threaded filters and include lens shade and bayonet mount and can be reverse mounted for transport.
