I have been told the newly announced Zeiss 16-35mm OSS FE lens will cost about the same as the current Zeiss 24-70mm FE lens ($1199 here on Amazon). Sony still hasn’t shared any image of the lens yet. But it should ship from August.

The first Hasselblad HV superkit sells for $9,999 on [shoplink 26422 ebay]eBay US (Click here)[/shoplink]. Actually, it’s well priced because the original price was set even higher at $11,500! The special “High Performance Case” package includes two batteries and the 24-70mm f/2.8 Zeiss. As you already know the specs are the same of the Sony A99. You can see many more images of the Hasselblad that’s for sale on the [shoplink 26422 ebay]eBay auction page (Click here)[/shoplink].

This is the third “luxurified” Sony camera version from Hasselblad after the [shoplink 22672 ebay]Hasselblad Lunar (on eBay here)[/shoplink] and the [shoplink 22673 ebay]Hasselblad Stellar (on eBay here)[/shoplink].

P:S.: I know the word “luxurified” doesn’t exist but I found it appropriate and easy to understand :)
