Hasselblad's 24mm fisheye built for the V System.
The F-Distagon CF IHI 24mm f/3.5 is a fisheye lens designed specifically for the Hasselblad 500 Series V System. The CF mount brings an integrated leaf shutter, which means full flash sync at any speed, a meaningful advantage for anyone mixing ambient and strobe light on medium format film. At 24mm on the V System's square medium format frame, the fisheye projection covers an exceptionally wide field of view, rendering the characteristic curved distortion across a format known for its resolving power and tonal depth.
The f/3.5 maximum aperture is workable for a lens of this character and focal length, and the CF designation confirms this optic fits the broad family of 500C/M, 501, 503, and related bodies. With adapters, it can mount to Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Fuji GFX systems, which makes it accessible beyond the traditional V System film workflow. Finding a fisheye at this focal length built to Hasselblad's optical standards is not a common occurrence, and that scarcity alone speaks to its place in a serious collection.
Who It's For
Architectural and interior photographers working with V System bodies will find the fisheye projection and integrated leaf shutter a genuinely useful pairing for mixed-light environments. Fine art and experimental photographers drawn to the square medium format frame will get a distinctly different geometric distortion than any 35mm fisheye delivers. V System shooters already invested in CF glass gain a specialized wide-angle option that stays within their existing body ecosystem. Fuji GFX and mirrorless shooters curious about V System glass can access this lens via adapters to Sony E, Canon RF, or Nikon Z mounts.

FAQ
- What's the field of view on a 24mm fisheye for the V System?
- At 24mm on Hasselblad's square medium format frame, you get the characteristic ultra-wide fisheye projection with pronounced curved distortion across the entire image.
- Can I use this lens on digital cameras?
- Yes. The F-Distagon CF mount works on the V System bodies, and adapters allow it to mount on Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Fuji GFX systems.
- What does CF mount mean?
- CF indicates an integrated leaf shutter built into the lens, which gives you full flash sync at any shutter speed - critical for controlled strobe work on medium format.
- Is f/3.5 fast enough for a 24mm fisheye?
- For a fisheye of this focal length and optical construction, f/3.5 is a workable aperture. Medium format film and digital sensors handle the depth of field characteristics differently than 35mm, so brightness relative to the format matters more than the raw f-number.
- Does this lens fit all Hasselblad V System bodies?
- The CF designation confirms compatibility with 500C/M, 501, 503, and related V System cameras.
- What's the optical construction of this fisheye?
- Hasselblad doesn't publish element counts for this model in standard documentation, but the optic is built to the brand's medium format standards with the characteristic Distagon optical formula adapted for fisheye projection.
