The ZY Optics Mitakon Speedmaster 65mm f/1.4 is now the fastest lens option for Hasselblad's mirrorless medium format system.
lens originally designed for the Fujifilm GFX available for Hasselblad X, which will make it the fastest lens option for the medium format system.
The manual focus lens provides a 35mm equivalent focal length of 50mm. ZY Optics says Mitakon Speedmaster 65mm f/1.4 is set to become the first f/1.4 lens option for Hasselblad X, which also makes it the fastest lens available for the system. It is worth noting that just like the focal length, the equivalent aperture is also wider than f/1.4.ZY Optics says the lens, therefore, allows for enhanced low-light capabilities and greater control over an extremely thin depth of field.
Since it is equivalent to a 50mm lens, the company says that the Mitakon 65mm f/1.4 offers photographers a more portrait perspective that is in line with human eyes. It also produces its bokeh pattern thanks to a nine-bladed circular diaphragm that ZY Optics says makes for background defocus that is akin to butter in its texture and appearance.While bokeh pattern is important, so is overall lens performance.
The company adds that the aperture and focus rings feature clear and precise scaling that are “discreetly” embedded on the metal barrel. With a particularly long focus throw, ZY Optics says that the lens has enhanced precision when focusing on specific objects.
