This absolute legend of a lens has unfortunately been relegated to the bench since I got a 110mm f/2 Planar, so it needs to move to a new home.

The lens is in incredible shape and makes fantastic images. Nothing to note in terms of wear to the body or the glass. One of the sharpest Zeiss Hasselblad lenses out there, it is an EXCELLENT performer for both portrait and landscape use. I've used it on a 503CW and a 201F and never had a single issue.

It was looked at by Associated Camera when I bought it and Paul determined that the shutter speeds were excellent. This is a fantastic copy of this lens ready to shoot!

Price is $625 shipped and Paypalled.

It's also my sharpest Hasselblad lens ana bit better for portraiture than the regular 150due to more reach but some models object because for them it is too sharp.

I've always found it a lot nicer than the 150 for portraits. The transition between in and out of focus areas is just magical. I usually shoot it wide open and while very sharp, it doesn't reach the level of unflattering. And for landscapes, it's just phenomenal.

+1 on that one. It is my most used Hassy lens. For portraits I tend to prefer the 120, though. (but I shoot 90% landscapes - they are more patient and do not complain being photographed )

I loved the 120 as well, it's SUPER versatile. But the 180 is the king of portrait lenses on the Hassy 500 series, IMO. Now the 110 f/2 is another story
