This is probably the first lens you should be using if you have a Hasselblad 500 camera. Ebay only gave me the option to review the CFE version of this lens, when I actually purchased the C version of it. I'm a diehard C lens fan and do not like the design of the modern CF, CFI, and CFE lenses. It's a personal preference. The photo quality of all of them is excellent. Planar lenses are prone to flare due to the layout of the glass elements. Other than that, these things are going to make sharp images for you if they are in working order. Speaking of working order, my first 80mm C lens was from 1959 and it worked excellently after all of these years. This equipment is rugged and ready to tackle photography like a champ. Since these lenses have been made for so many years, it pays to shop around and read about each incarnation of the lens from C to C t* to CF to CFI to CFE. Price will vary depending which lens you're looking at. I just paid 224 dollars for my CF T* lens in excellent condition. Price fluctuates a bit depending on how high the demand for this equipment is. You'll see these lenses on ebay regularly, so be patient and wait for the right one. Don't settle for a broken or damaged lens, especially in the older C style, since certain parts are not being made to repair them anymore. This lens should have no problems selling itself. It's Zeiss glass that fits on a Hasselblad body. I don't really have to tell you it's nice and works well.Read full review
I have used Hasselblad cameras and lenses for over 30 years. I am now working with more DSLR's but still have an EL, 50, 80 and 120 that I use with a Phase One back. There are lenses that are sharper in the Hassy lineup and faster if you go to the F series but I never experienced the barrel distortion or focus vigneyt that I know do with DSLR lenses. The 80mm 2.8 is compact and inexpensive, a no braine'r for anyone using Hassy V series cameras.
