    Long live technical cameras and digital view cameras!

    So, I tried to compile what would be needed, and with an Alpa 12 STC, a Silex controller, the H lens adapter Hfix, a tilt adapter, and the X-mount adapter HXD, the total sum would be 13339 CHF, and if I understand this correctly, that is even without VAT. Wow, bummer. And there would still be no...

    Long live technical cameras and digital view cameras!

    I looked through the Alpa website but could not find an adapter for x-mount cameras, but of course, might have missed it.

    Long live technical cameras and digital view cameras!

    as Paul already pointed out, the Alpa does not accept a Hasselblad X1D/X2D or 907x at its back, but only Hasselblad sensor units (of course, since they can be controlled externally by the Silex controller, while the Hasselblad cameras are evidently not controllable). A technical camera accepting...

    Long live technical cameras and digital view cameras!

    This comment may deviate a bit from the discussion, but I wonder why nobody so far has released a "sorts of" tech camera that accepts Hasselblad H lenses or Rollei 6000 lenses on the front, and Hasselblad X-mount cameras on its back. The difference in flange distances between H and X cameras is...

    500mm for HB X2D

    What? Rats.

    500mm for HB X2D

    why not stick to the compatible system? HC 300 mm + 1.7x teleconverter. If you find one with recent firmware, you could not only use the shutter, but also the autofocus.

    Two Laowa T/S lens coming soon in the Fuji GFX mount

    It's probably that Laowa discovered that their T/S lenses have a wide enough image circle to cover the Sony sensor used in the FUJI GFX and Hasselblad X cameras. They also offer other T/S lenses with GFX and X mount. These lenses are not designed to compete with or supplement Fuji's lenses; they...

    How successful have recent Hasselblad product introductions been?

    that should not be too complicated. It makes sense only if there is some benefit from this. Normally, that would be a wider dynamic range. But I am not sure if this is possible; there is not enough data on the monochrome version of the sensor over at Sony's website.

    How successful have recent Hasselblad product introductions been?

    wow. And the R&D have quadrupeled since 2020. Which is in itself notable, since aside from some more lenses, what new products have we seen in 2023/2024 that would justify 25 mio expenses? It would also be interesting to compare the numbers with those from 2017, when the X system was released...

    Gibellini DCG66 Pre Order Launch Edition Announced

    Not sure what is going on here, but notably, there is mentioned a gc lens mount, and the image shows a trigger button. Might be a bit more than just as pure mechanical adapter between a lens and a back.

    Leaf shutter lens adapter possible?

    It might also be possible to develop a curtain type shutter in a (albeit huge) adapter, I'd assume. It is all a question of ressources. But I would find it more helpful to develop intelligent adapters for existing leaf shutter lenses, first and foremost, due to their fully electronic control...

    IQ 60MP VS 100MP (color comparison only)

    I would assume that differences in colour can also depend on the dyes used for the Bayer filters. The more confined to a small frequency range of light these are, the larger the gamut that can be calculated. This has nothing to do with CMOS vs CCD. But since there has always been a crying for...

    Hasselblad XV Lens Adapter Questions

    Time flies....Have you made some progress in regards to an active Rollei adapter for HB XCD?

    Growing concern over availability of XCD (older style) and New V lenses

    found it. They state 2 more to come this year, London, Regent street, and Manchester, Market street.

    Growing concern over availability of XCD (older style) and New V lenses

    Even though I generally do not agree to Paul's assumption that Hasselblad is now chinese and DJI, I do agree with him that recently, DJI seems to have taken over a significant command over the distribution of HB products. Just look at all those DJI/HB prestige stores in China, other far east...

    Resolution between digital and analog photographic Pictures

    a couple of years ago I tried a guestimate, and given several assumptions, I ended up with about 16 MP for a fine grain slice film in 35 mm film type. Apparently much more than the estimates given in the DPREVIEW discussion. Black and white film will give a higher resolution, there was even a...
