Dude, you are rich, you can afford to keep a collection of Hassies, good for you! I am glad you endorse the Hasselblad X1D, I am planning on getting one.

Actually, I am not rich, I have just prioritised my photography, so although it's only a hobby, I make money from photography, not a lot but enough to justify keeping the "collection" of Hasselblads.

Own X1D (first version) since day one. Right after its release, camera had many flaws, however, with subsequent FW updates, they reshaped the camera, fixing all the flaws. Now, camera works as it should. I love my X1D and use it on regular bases. You really don't know how good X1D is, until you own it. My X1D is not for sale and will not be. It is a keeper. Thank you

X1D has 1st generation sensor. They upgraded all they could on that particular censor. Camera still shoots 2fps so If you shoot fast action, X1D is probably not for you. If you shoot landscapes, portraits, product or Art photography - camera will excel in those fields

Totally with you on this - as a Pro for 35yrs + commercial fashion, portraiture - its always good to hang on to stuff - I have the new 100c on order from Hass - 2nd in the queue apparently - and I will still hang onto the 907x CFV50c - its just what we do - the last camera I parted with is now on permanent loan to Fuji for their Heritage Dept at House Of Photography in Covent Garden London - a full unused Fuji GX680III with every lens and every accessory and a few prototypes from when I was in Japan with Fuji before becoming one of their ambassadors and film lecturers - I have not been to see it - but its nice to know its there - sometimes there is an emotional attachment to camera's - like cars I suppose

Thanks for your comment. I'we had Hasselblads since the age of 19, where I bought my first 500C, that's almost 50 years ago. Like you I have also been around Fuji, though not the GX680, although I have been looking for one during the last couple of years, as I began shooting a lot on film again. I have some Fujis - X-T2 and X-E4 - and I love to use them. But favorite cameras have always since the first always been my Hasselblads.

Good choice to keep both X1Dii and X2D bodies, X1D first version is best value right now and I like the silver colour over grey, it reminds me original design.

Another excellent video. Thank you. I am now trying to find a second hand X1Dii as a back up camera to the X2D. But will the 28mm, 38mm, 55mm, and 90mm lenses work with the X1Dii?
@key2adventure
@key2adventure 11 ай бұрын
Don't worry, everything works perfectly on the X1D ii as well, at least it does with my 28mm and the 90mm. AF in AF mode as well as manual override, the function ring which I use for aperture, and the shutter speed can be set to 1/4000 second with the 90mm. It will be a perfect back up camera.

The X2D allowed me to get an EX+ used X1DII for $5K less than the new X2D. I can step up and use the X system and enjoy what it offers. No regrets at all.

Yes sure. I have a LM-XCD adapter so I can use Leica M lenses. But I have a whole suite of adapters for different vintage lenses. Watch my video on adapter here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3rVpYGHoMp4jJI and you can also find a video on adapting Hasselblad HC lenses on my channel.

Thanks. I can understand that your decision is difficult. I also like the Fuji GFX, but the design and style of Hasselblad inspires me much more, so I chose to go that way. I think in the end you'll be happy with any of those. I don't know anything about the Leica.

Thank you for your concise and thorough review. I'm trying to decide whether to buy the X1D mark II or X2D and sell my Leica SL2. Any thoughts you could provide would be appreciated. I have enjoyed my Leica and other Leicas for years and photograph mainly people, landscapes and travel. I have always liked the aesthetics of both systems.
@key2adventure
@key2adventure 4 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, I have never shot Leica, so I can't provide any useful information regarding the differences in these systems. But I would say, that for people and travel the considerably faster X2D and the build-in IBIS makes quite a difference. Depending on your need for resolution, the extra 50 mpix on the X2D could also make a difference for landscapes, although it would only be visible on really large prints. I do 50x70 from the X1D II and they are very, very detailed and sharp.

@@tianwang9216 I will definitely keep my X1D mark II. I love its design more than the slightly more bulky X2D, and I often change between lenses, therefore having two bodies is actually very handy. And I still like the output of the X1D, though the X2D allows a bit more cropping and post process work. The X1D mark II is still an awesome camera.

@@tianwang9216 I meant to say SL3. But I did purchase the X2D. It's an amazing camera. The amount of dynamic range, shadow and highlight recapture and natural colors out of camera is truly amazing. I find that I carry it with me always. Just not liking the huge files. It is slowing my Mac down so I at times use JPEG.

I also have the x1d v1. It still works for my needs once I got all the firmware updated. If it stops working and can not be fixed, only then would I consider the x2d. Thanks for doing this video.
