It seems Fuji is working well for Hasselblad:

I don't know how this compare with similar S lenses...

 

fyi the link shows the wrong image of the new 120mm hasselblad lens.. they have pictured the old one.. new one is smaller and is not a hunchback.

well the S lens is a f2.5 and the hasselblad is f4..that is one difference.

Actually, I just went to the Hasselblad booth today and looked at the revised lenses. In fact, the lens designer was standing just across the counter. Both the 50mm and the 120mm lens use the same housing/barrel, just with revised internal optics.

 

I'll be writing this up in some detail on my blog update for the day, with pictures.

The 50mm seems to have thicker lens elements and less air-to-glass surfaces. The new MTF curves are impressive, and the differences with the previous model are substantial.

 

The differences in the macro lens are no so evident. Mr. Sama says Hasselblad claims to have optimized the color correction in the new macro lens.

 

Leica has presented a macro lens with (broadly) similar specifications.
