Premium Zeiss macro lens for Hasselblad V system with leaf shutter and superb flat-field optics.
The Hasselblad CFE Makro Planar 120mm f/4 is a premium macro lens for the Hasselblad V system, computed by Carl Zeiss to deliver flat-field sharpness from infinity down to 1:4.4 reproduction ratio. The CFE designation indicates it supports both electronic and mechanical interfaces for compatibility across the full V-system range.
Optical performance is exceptional, with the Makro Planar design delivering edge-to-edge sharpness that makes it equally superb for portraiture and close-up work. The T* multi-coating provides excellent flare control and rich contrast that Zeiss optics are renowned for across the photographic world.
The built-in Prontor CF leaf shutter enables flash synchronisation at all speeds up to 1/500th, which is invaluable for studio macro work where combining flash with daylight requires precise exposure control. Build quality is the finest Hasselblad and Zeiss craftsmanship in every detail.
Highly sought after on the used market, the CFE Makro Planar 120mm is considered one of the finest medium format macro lenses ever made. For Hasselblad V system users doing product photography, portraiture, or botanical work, it remains the definitive choice and a genuine investment piece.
