How could anyone OBJECTIVELY look at HB as a business and not conclude they are a mess ?
Remember when we argued about the rumored 30 000 camera back log with X1D or the infusion of capital from DJI that would allow HB to develop next generation gear ? What happened ?
A terrific CEO that saved the company and over saw the development of the X1D left .
The X1D became readily available within 6 months and was discounted heavily by B&H . Brick and mortar dealers were quite unhappy that they were undercut on price while holding inventory .
HB defaults on loan from DJI and is now 100% owned by DJI .
X1D out of stock with no forecast of future cameras .
Fuji has dominated the market with first the 50 S then the 50 R and soon the 100 .
This takes away nothing from the X1D product line which will flawed has tremendous capability and is loved by many photographers . Its the company that is questionable ...at least until they SHIP the next generation X camera .
