    System change from Hasselblad H to GFX 100 II

    EDIT: after a short search, it appears that the Hasselblad H lenses can in fact be used on GF cameras with this adapter. Might be an interesting option.

    System change from Hasselblad H to GFX 100 II

    I also wonder wether the GF-adapter for H lenses (that is officially intended for Fuji lenses) would also work with the Hasselblad versions of the lenses. Seems they are identical?! https://www.fujifilm-x.com/de-de/products/accessories/h-mount-adapter-g/

    The demise of medium format

    Back in film days, a significant portion of medium format cameras were sold to amateurs. This changed abruptly with the advent of digital photography. All at once, medium format could mostly be afforded by professional photographers (and even that was problematic), resulting in the demise of...

    Is Hasselblad still really a premium brand?

    Hasselblad equipment for the V series was dirt cheap a couple years ago. Now it is up again, due to the introduction of the New CFV series of sensor units. Hardly what I would call devaluing. And to me, the definition of premium is very different from yours. To me, premium means to go to...

    Macro bellows on a Hasselblad X2D

    you are aware of this bellows, I assume?: https://novoflex.de/en/Auto-Bellows-Hasselblad-X/BAL-HAX

    What happened to "Hasselbladdigitalform"?

    Seems gone since about 10 days, after having kidnapped by some idiot. Does anybody have information on this?

    Hasselblad look and color with Leica SL3?

    well, I don't buy that argument. To me, it seems to have been a decision by Hasselblad. Leica seems to have been able to develop an adapter with AF function for their S-system. https://www.photouniversal.de/leica-s-adapter-an-hasselblad-h-obj.//6a260778fce64a0ca9e6a79bd904fa7e So, maybe, after...

    Hasselblad look and color with Leica SL3?

    Good luck finding an HC 300 young enough to allow autofocus. I have occasionally been looking for one, and so far, nothing. This holds for all AF capable HC lenses. Either, the crisis at Hasselblad was bigger than assumed, and they sold almost nothing in the last years, or all the younger lenses...

    X2D II 100C is in

    just downloaded it. In the export menu, there are now "UltraHDR JPEG" options. maybe other new ones as well. edit: More Info in the Readme: All Hasselblad RAW images can now take advantage of HNCS HDR processing in Phocus 4.0. To use HDR: 1. Verify that your monitor supports displaying HDR...

    X2D II 100C is in

    From what I could gather, "HDR" in Hasselblad's sense is only on the output side, by having implemented JPEG HDR and HEIF HDR in the camera as well as in Phocus. The raw data remain the same. It is a rather special improvement that is of no benefit for prints and normal monitors, and can only be...

    was buying a Hasselblad 907X 50C an error?

    The purpose of existence of the 907x is to address the crop factor issues of the V system. The CFV 50c II/CFV 100c is to be used with V system cameras, but in case you need a wide angle, you put on the 907x instead, and use an XCD wide angle lens, from 20 to 38 mm, i.e., in the range not really...

    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...
