Thanks guys. AWESOME and balanced review! NO camera is perfect but this X1d sounds like it has more than its fair share of problems. I cannot believe it does NOT have a LIVE histogram (!?!) which is extremely useful for outdoor/landscape shooting. The upcoming SHOOTOUT with the Fuji GFX sounds great. Looking forward to it. And excellent shooting by Jordan. Nice job. Thanks guys.
@sunnyboner6767 жыл бұрын
Ok, so let me be the first and likely only one to post a POSITIVE COMMENT about the X1D. I actually own the camera and love the fact I can sync my strobes at any speed with the leaf shutter lenses. It gives me lots of flexibility to overpower the sun. Being colour blind, I have relied on Hasselblad cameras from their earliest digital versions to be able to get the best right out of the camera. I also own a Sony A7R II as a backup and to be able to use a variety of tilt/shift lenses. Even being colour blind, I can notice that skin tones are a little magenta. The aspect ratio is something else I find easier to compose with. In any case, people will buy what appeals to them coupled with what they can afford. To each their own. I can't be the only one to appreciate the camera... they seem to be swamped with orders and have exceeded their expectations in terms of sales.

I Know that I have like all you work up until this video were I thing you have just got it wrong. I love this camera Yes its a big cost but so nice to use. Hi, I know you heated the Hasseldlad X1D, But I just been to one of the camera store in the UK and took both cameras out that the Fuji GFX and the Hasseldlad X1D and I found the Fuji uncomfortable to hold just awkward to control in manual i.e. changing most of the setting other than aperture. As to the image quality there was little to no difference on what I shot, But when I have look at other test I think the Hessalbad is still just a small bit better. But the Hessablad is so much nice in the hand. You have got to remember that both of these cameras are medium format and need to be used as such.

Bluetooth is the only viable option here. There are too many situations when timer is not ok, and using the touch screen for a long exposure pic in a 50 mp camera on a tripod is... well... emh... (to phrase it nicely) very wrong. And c'mon, even bluetooth is not ok, as there might be other things you want to use the camera bluetooth for, or you might find so much easier to have a cable and a small and easy to use mechanical apparatus in a vast series of circumstances.

I rented this to try it out on a shoot for a fashion mag. Amazing lenses and medium format look. Switch off Jpeg, shoot Raw only as it speeds up the camera a lot. The Sony A7r2, is not comparable, it's for enthusiasts as colours are not great- I honestly don't know any pro that shoots with Sony in conde naste, but this camera I have no idea who its designed for- Maybe drivers who rent lamborginis and drive up and down Luton high street?. Biggest bug is it's speed of operation. Aside from that either spend more and get more or spend less and go 35mm Canon/Nikon.

Just to some of the commentators: you can ignore as much or long as you want but people still working with MF film cameras just laughing in their hearts. Just understand, the specific needs of some photographers should not be the same as yours. The picture itself says it all, now feel free to keep your head on the feature page of your camera guide book as long as you want, and leave other things.
