Schneider-Kreuznach Xenotar HFT 80mm f/2.8 lens. Originally from the Rolleiflex 6000 6x6 system, I had this professionally converted to Hasselblad V-mount. I used it on my Hasselblad 203FE (which I've since sold as I downsized my collection), though it will work on any Hasselblad 200/2000 series camera or with the CFV digital backs. The image circle more than covers the 6x6 format (the Rollei 6000 system is also 6x6) with no vignetting.
The lens doesn't have a built-in shutter (hence why it's ideal for the body-shutter 200/2000 series Hassie cameras or the electronic shutter ability on the CFV digital backs). The optics are superior in my experience to the standard Zeiss Planar 80mm f/2.8 lens for the system, with sharper plane of focus and smoother, creamier bokeh (out of focus areas). The lens performs great, with smooth manual focus, firm aperture ring, and is in excellent optical condition with no issues to mention. I've included images of the lens on my (now sold) Hasselblad 203FE for reference. This sale only includes the lens, caps and filter adapter. And I've additionally included photos I took on film with this lens and my 203FE (please note that FM requires highly compressed images. These are far crisper in actuality).
An absolutely one of a kind lens. Comes with front and rear caps, and a Rollei bayonet-to-67mm size filter adapter, for using 67mm screw-in filters.
