Adaptor obiectiv Novoflex HAX/LEM

The Novoflex HAX/LEM lens adapter enables the use of Leica M-mount lenses on Hasselblad X1D mirrorless cameras. Constructed in a matte black finish, the adapter provides a mechanical interface that aligns Leica M optics to the X1D body, preserving lens flange distance and ensuring stable mounting. This accessory expands lens compatibility for photographers who want to pair compact, high-quality rangefinder lenses with the medium-format sensor of the Hasselblad X1D.

Advantages

The adapter offers a precise metal construction for secure attachment and long-term durability without electronic connections, avoiding potential communication issues between lens and camera. Its low-profile design keeps the combined setup compact while maintaining proper lens registry for accurate focusing. The adapter's finish resists wear and reduces reflections that could affect image quality during shooting.

Suitable for

• Portrait and street photographers using Leica M lenses on Hasselblad X1D bodies
• Photographers seeking unique lens character and bokeh from rangefinder glass
• Studio and location shooters combining medium-format sensor performance with classic M optics
• Optical testing, lens comparison and archival reproduction tasks

Key specifications

• Mount compatibility: Leica M lens to Hasselblad X1D camera body
• Material: precision-machined metal construction
• Finish: matte black surface to minimize reflections
• Weight: lightweight design to preserve camera balance
• Optical behavior: passive adapter maintaining original lens flange distance (no optical elements)

How to use

Attach the adapter to the Hasselblad X1D body by aligning the adapter mount with the camera bayonet and rotating to lock. Mount a Leica M lens onto the adapter in the same manner as mounting the lens to an M-mount camera; ensure the lens clicks into place securely. Because the adapter is passive and does not transmit electronic signals, set exposure, focus and aperture manually on the lens or use camera manual exposure modes. Use focus magnification or focus peaking on the X1D to achieve accurate focus when working with manual-rangefinder lenses.

Recommendations

For best results, confirm lens registration and focus accuracy on the Hasselblad X1D before critical shoots; test at multiple focus distances and apertures to account for any slight mechanical tolerances. Use manual exposure control and enable live view aids on the camera for precise framing and focus when adapting rangefinder lenses.
