Hasselblad 30mm f/5.6 HCD

The Hasselblad 30mm f/5.6 HCD is an ultra-wide-angle prime for the Hasselblad H-system medium format platform. The HCD designation indicates it was optimised for the smaller digital sensor format used on H-series digital backs, giving photographers a dramatic wide field of view for landscape, architectural, and interior work. Its value on the used market has shifted over the past decade as digital medium format has matured.

At recent UK auction, clean copies have been fetching hammer prices of £2,625 and £2,750 in 2025, with a higher £3,250 result from late 2022 and an outlier £1,600 result from 2015 reflecting an earlier market. That places the recent median worth around £2,687 at saleroom level — wholesale hammer results rather than retail asking prices — and today a typical clean example sells for somewhere in the mid-£2,000s to low-£3,000s depending on condition and completeness.
