    Signs of Wear on Hasselblad X2D

    Thanks John, indeed, in the meantime I have found the interesting thread on the Hasselblad Forum. I was quite surprised to learn there that apparently the newer batches are now black anodized and not dark grey anymore. (in the Hasselblad store it appears still as dark grey). I hope that this...

    Signs of Wear on Hasselblad X2D

    I am considering buying into the Hasselblad X-System. I have been looking for a used X2D body and noticed that (although the X2D is a relatively new model) nearly all of the bodies on sale had clear signs of wear, especially at the different "sharp edges" (silver shining). So my question to...

    Cant Find L Bracket for S 007 FOUND ONE

    One question Matt: is the hole next to the connection screw to the camera threaded (1/4 or 3/8), so I could use the screw of a BlackRapid on it? In total there are 3 holes, I am talking about the middle hole.

    Leica SL adds Multishot capability 187MP

    My experience has been that the shadows, especially when recovered, result much cleaner in multishot mode. Quite important for a lot of situations like high contrast landscapes.

    Leica S3 released today March 6, 2020 - new review

    Andreas Kaufmann surely has one and he bought it with his own money as he stated here @53m18s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQqmregxhbQ The German Leica Online Store had some in stock before the shutdown in Wetzlar, but they are now sold out (seems factory has been working now for around 1...

    Hasselblad X1D MkII Initial thoughts

    I had to laugh ... You are expecting a lot :). I am more modest and only hoped that with a better processor the Mark II would have at least C-AF. Seems not .. come on Hasselblad, even my 20-year old Contax 645 has that.

    Dantes Architectural Inferno

    But you can use the TSE 17 and 24 on the X1D. There are several adapters around, especially the new TechartPro Adapter seems nice. The limitations are discussed here: http://www.hasselbladdigitalforum.com/index.php?topic=6355.0 Another option (using only a simple adapter) would be the...

    Hasselblad CFV ll 50c

    The crop indeed is quite heavy, especially for wide-angles a limitation. Maybe they provide a screen as in the previous 50c back version.

    Hasselblad CFV ll 50c

    AF capability with XCD lenses is already confirmed in the description at Hasselblad's site: "When combined with the 907X camera body, the photographer gains access to the entire XCD Lens range, providing autofocus and autoexposure". I assume the new back in combination with the 907X is a X1DII...

    T/S Options for the X1D

    Another option is the new Fotodiox TLT ROKR Tilt-Shift Adapter for Hasselblad V lenses on X1D.

    X2D Thread

    Very sad to hear that (too short a time to have a real influence on the companies strategy), curious to hear about his reasons but apparently some conflicts.

    MF In-Body Image Stabilization at Last!

    Yes I noticed that. I personally would prefer to attach the grip when and only when I need it. The other thing, I noticed, is that they seem to say goodby to the typical Fuji ergonomics with labeled dials. I prefer the 50R layout. I am not so sure if that will still change as in the promo...
