Greg Haag Posted March 20, 2019 Share #1  Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I thought I would share my experience so far with the Leica S-Adapter H in case it might help someone in similar circumstances.  First, I would rather not use adapters, but I am because I am so heavily invested in the Hasselblad HC lenses.  So far my experience has been great and to date it has been a seamless integration.  I do not have any of the HCD lenses, so I cannot speak to that, but have the following lenses; HC 35, HC 50, HC 80, HC 50-110, HC 100, HC 150, HC 210 (I have not tried it on this lens yet).    Edited March 20, 2019 by Greg Haag 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

helged Posted March 20, 2019 Share #2  Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) HC 300mm works quite well (on S006), as well. You can add the 1.7x converter to the 300mm, giving ~500mm. But in this case you loose af and the lens remains wide open (or at a pre-set aperture if you prior to adding the converter, remove the lens with the preview button activated).

ynp Posted March 20, 2019 Share #3  Posted March 20, 2019 My favorite HC lenses are the 50mm-II and 50-110mm. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to know, I have the 1.7x converter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience with my camera, the S2P, it did not recognize the converter at all and I was unable to initiate the shutter. It was many years ago and I don’t have the adapter to test it now. I sold the converter and the 300mm years ago. Yevgeny 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
