  1. 100% agreeing. And may also Add that with a 100Mpx, a tripod will be needed 90% of the time. Plus you’ll need a great computer to proceed those files and a huge SSD if you want to store more than 1 year of photos.

  2. Isn't laud noise of shutter on this lens annoying? the other lenses like 28p, 35v and 55v do not make that noise- in leaf shutter mood. I feel this sounds like something is about to break in leaf shutter.

  3. I feel like six grand for this camera would be fair. I just need a fun camera that can reasonably nail focus on an eye, old car or distant abandoned building. I don't need to track an eagle diving for a fish. I am torn between buying the older model and hoping it can still be serviced in four years or saving even more money for this model. Thank you for a well done video.

  4. As digital cameras are typically not collectable and depreciate when the new model comes out its not a collector’s piece
    As a user camera, the boxy shape and difficulty using the rear display in sunlight make the camera an unpleasant experience
    The viewfinder and grip look awful and I would have thought this would have been rectified in this second generation camera
    I would guess 90% of people including myself trade the camera in and buy years far more practicle X2D

  5. I had the 907x100c because I really loved the camera and shooting experience but as I photographed more and more in different situations I had to realise that some to the usability is not sufficient even with the fantastic new lenses. One big draw back is that in strong sun you can't see the Screen properly. On the X2D100c which I know use, the screen is not only bigger but also brighter and you have all buttons that you need without an extra grip. I salute Hasselblad to continue the 907x line but unless you don't use the older film bodies you might end up realising that the usability is limited… however Hasselblad is for me the one and only brand where image quality and usability and design all meet at the highest possible level and they are worth the high price unlike Leica.

  6. @btonelli, I’m stuck between selling my Q3 for this beast, since the X100VI takes photos just as beautiful as the Q3. Since I also have the X1Dii, the Hasselblad system is just hammering my wallet haha! What would you do? Stay with a Q3 and a Fuji X100VI, or sell the Q3 and get this as the “final” camera haha 🙂

  7. Very insightful review. I wonder if Hasselblad could introduce a vertical to horizontal swivel/ratcheting feature into the optional grip? (Think of the planes in Edge of Tomorrow, the Quad Tiltrotors). Wouldn't that be cool!

  8. I have arrived at the realization things are becoming far too complex in this field – at least for me. Cameras and editing tools are now so full of artificial intelligence that it feels like the person behind the lens is fast becoming a secondary consideration.

    So with that said, I am taking a cue from one of the most influential designers that I admire. Dieter Rams, a German born industrial designer who embraced the philosophy of "less is more." Minimalism… to be specific.

    I am so excited to shed the idea that I need a heavily tech-ladened camera to capture things. In body image stabilization, focus tracking and all sorts of computational photography tricks. Way too much stuff between my eyes and my subject.

    From this point on, my focus (pun intended) is to frame, capture and edit imagery in a more thoughtful and simplistic way. One that will preserve the integrity of what I am attempting to capture. Light, shadow, texture and color… These are the only elements that will be tweaked in each image (on an as needed basis). No composite images.

    I will be using this insanely austere piece of equipment to accomplish this. One that requires my undivided attention and skill in order to create something truly special. A work of art… is my heartfelt intention.

    This is such an exciting path to be on. So much more to come.
