The X1DII is faster, better and now has some upgrades that turn it into a fully matured camera vs the 1st Gen. I LOVED the first one and yes, still LOVE the new one. Same sensor as the original (50MP Sony Sensor) and thank goodness for that as it's one amazing sensor!
This is my video with image samples from the Hasselblad X1DII.
I am writing this in 2021, and looking at those images, I feel like taking images with Hasselblad is an emotion. You just feel it!
Thank you for the honest a pinion regard the Sony and Hasselblad, I am totally agree 👍🏻 I feel that almost every UA-camr is forgetting the total quality in a picture, if the eye is sharp and in focus, and there’s a lot of background blur. Well then it’s insanely good!! 🙈😆 Correct color, nice skin tones, beautiful fall of, contrast and so on is not important! Glad to see that you know what you are talking about, thanks for your reviews 👍🏻
Beautiful. One thing this camera has that the Sony A7riii or Fuji GFX doesn’t have is the leaf shutter. I can’t begin to tell you how useful it is to be able to x-sync all the way up to 1/2000sec when using strobes outdoors. My go to cameras are the X1D and the RX1RII for outdoor photography for this very reason. Wonderful review!
In the menu options of the X1D you can choose between, real light conditions or simulated shooting light conditions you have to try both options and choose the best, but no mirrorless camera can simulate flashlight in the viewfinder as it is with an optical finder.
You can also push the luminosity, of the finder to the maximum, when light conditions are bad.
A usefull solution is to work with the flash pilot light to see face expressions. ( Profoto A1 speedlight with pilot works great on X1D)
Don’t mind the speed, love the picture quality, the only wish item for me is tilt screen for low angle shots. I’m too old to crawl on the ground.
I have a7riii. But whenever i have more bugdet i will go for it.
I was ready to get the X1d2 until I let the lens situation sink in... Overpriced and possibly less reliable? The 45mm just went up $300 for no apparent reason. A pancake would seal the deal for me, but so far the lens selection just isnt getting my interest for the price/performance compared to Fuji. I'm not a Gucci guy either...
Finally a good camera review, with good sample shots
I remember a long ways back when he reviewed the olympus ep 2. Gosh, ages ago. I went out and bought it. Still have the camera lol.
The colors are really WOW!
eva eriksson The Sony looks like bubblegum in comparison.
I'm thinking of upgrading my X1D mark I, but only if it has faster readout time when in electronic shutter mode. I can't find any specs on that. Have you tested this or have you got any information on this?
It's important for me because I use some adapted vintage lenses like a Canon FD 85mm f1.2. These lenses are hard to use without a tripod as any movement makes the image unusable. But the new processor could change that. If it haven't changed the readout time I might want to up/downgrade (however you see it) to a Fujifilm GFX50R as this has a traditional shutter that work with any kind of lens.
Hope you can answer this question as I would prefer to stay with Hasselblad. I have had Hasselblads since I was in my teens and now I'm 63, and it's a camera that inspires me to go shoot some more images due to its awesome design and UI.
I love your channel and your reviews :-)
Best regards, Bo - danish mountaineer and nature photographer.
I just don't see this camera being better than i GFX S or R maybe even an A7R3 or 4. In the image quality department.
I've owned both. GFX50S and X1D. Sold the GFX and kept the X1D. SOOC Image quality is very close, with edge going to X1D (my opinion of course). But the deciding factor really comes down to kit size (Body + Lenses). The X1D is simply a lighter and more compact system, which I why I kept it. Also, The X1D user experience and ergo set the bar. It's a joy to use, for landscapes at least.
It just is and thats all there is to it - and its all down the lenses - leaf shutters will always be better than anything
I'm seeing a 'lot' of used X1D mrk 1 on sale at 'reasonable' prices. With all that you've said, do you think it's still a good purchase if you're wanting to get into medium format?
I'd like to know this as well. I may consider saving up for a used xi1 for that extra quality as it seems to suit my style of shooting.
On my Christmas 2020 shopping list!
Great camera,looks great and LEAF SHUTTER LENSES TOO.Yes Fuji has a 100 MP ,so what?
Sensor size is the same as the Fuji GFX isn't it? Also its not Medium format, it is full frame plus!
The colours that produces are great 👍🌷👍
Awesome looking camera, love the touchscreen menus but very crippled when you compare it with much affordable cameras today
Image quality is superb
I hope they make a monochrome version
I considering going into medium format (Hasselblad, Fuji or even Film) because i need better image quality, tonal gradiation, color rendition etc. What i don't understand is why would a medium format sensor be better if the pixel size is not bigger. For example my a7iii has bigger pixels than this X1D ii. Is it only because of color depht and color rendition (manufacture based), or are there some other points (exept the lenses)?
Pixel sizes is not everything, your images will be downsampled for almost any purpose. In most cases you wont look at your photos with their real resolution. So pixels will be „combined“ . So smaller pixels might have a similar effect as big pixels in the end in terms of noise. And as far as i know noise and dynamic range are to be seen in conjunction. What matters tho is sensor size because every point in your image will be made from more light input compared to a smaller sensor. But then on the contrary FF has more affordable and faster lenses so in the end you might be gaining more light on FF than with medium format, because with medium format lenses are more limited. Thats how i understand it. at dpreview is a good article about this.
The best camera is that you have with you, guys. And there is a specific tool for a specific jobs.
I wonder why you've never tested the GFX from Fuji
Great review!
Do you have to use special trigger in order to sync at 1/2000 for flash photography? Thank you
Charles Kusi it’s not necessarily a special trigger per say but the flash duration of the strobes that’s more important. Most speedlights and strobes can sync up to 1/2000 under 1/4 - 1/8 power with leaf shutters. When using fast sync speeds you are able to use a very large aperture so usually 1/8 power is still more than enough to overcome the outdoor sun. Getting a flash or strobe with faster t.1 speeds will allow for the use of higher power settings. I have used both the Pocket Wizard and Godox Trigger systems and have yet to have any issues with syncing at 1/2000sec with both.
Thank you Chad! I appreciate your explanation.
Do you have a comparisson between Sony 24mm GM and XCD 30mm?
If you guys had to choose between the GFX100s and the X1D ii, which one would you take?
The reason nobody answered you, is because the choice is clearly Hasselblad
Medium format has more dynamic range? How? It's just a bigger sensor size right, so it captures more light but this does not equal more dynamic range per se? A smartphone with HDR setting captures quite a lot of dynamic range for instance.
Tonio Antonio It can‘t capture more light. How should it do that physically?
@@Funktrainer Because of bigger sensor surface? But it depends on the lens as well.
Tonio Antonio the sensor surface captures the same amount of light. There is no difference. Of course, medium format cameras have much simpler lens designs which is better for the image rendering.
@@Funktrainer 50MP full frame vs 50MP medium format, the medium format has larger 'pixels' and thus capture more light.. it's physics. it's why a 61MP full frame has a worse low light performance than a say 24MP full frame camera of the same tech. each pixel gets smaller and thus captures less light..
camaxide they don‘t capture more light. Bigger pixels have just better signal to noise ratio. If they would capture more light you would have to close the aperture more or shorten the shutter speed on a sensor with less megapixels to get the same exposure. Dead wrong. A pixel can‘t capture more than what is available.
However that thing is handmade, it looks like it's cnc machined. There's no reason at all to mill that camera by hand
Gosh, I can almost taste that.... in the last six months I have found my Dream team. That is the Canon EOS R (for the speedy stuff) and my Leica Q (for the slow considered, plan it , wait for it, and pop out and get it shots) . Would I swap my Q for a 30mm Hassleblaad? Well I’m not going to even try one. A), because I like what I have, and B), because my wife would divorce me 😂.
But it does look nice though 😁.... ... I could always say that I found it on the bus ??
If an even faster and improved version 3 comes out with fuji gfx features, I will think about it.
Michael Schwarz if you like the “Fuji Features” get a Fuji. They have the best “Fuji Features “ in the world. I have Canon and Leica. But ONLY because they suit MY PERSONAL style .
I think companies are just being naive or dishonest if they think their 35mm sensors can compete with medium format. It's just not gonna happen, at least not yet
Fantastic reviews as always! I love the images of Sodana, the most heavenly place on earth. I was thinking of taking a second mortgage to get XI DII but na, I'll just get the best 24-70 for my 7III.
A used medium format film camera is much more affordable, and still has better colors and that analog look.!
pixelatorNYC Just go for the Hasselblad H system if you want that beautiful digital medium format look. The used bodies are really cheap nowadays and there are plenty of lenses available too.
When the camera doesn't acquire focus and you say: "I just want to take my time. I'm that kind of photographer". Lol. "Yes, I like my camera being slow in general, with no ibis, and if possible with very expensive lenses to buy. I like challenges". Hahah "Yes, what matters is how the camera works, because ultimately is a tool to get pictures. But look, my Hassy is just so adorable looking...... how much?" Hahahahaha
It is a nice camera and like a Leica in the sense that Leica has seen incremental improvements for 70 years with the M and everybody loves it. That said, in all honesty, it is time for Hassie to put better tech in this body and make the auto focus right. Lets see an xd2
It will have to be a different body... very difficult to hand hold a 102Mpix camera without IBIS or stabilized lenses...
Even more compact than those 35ff👍👍👍👍‼️
thanks for sharing, great review!
Hi, is the best camera today?
I want...
'
nice pretty camera...
but still problems...
1- bad blur focus
1- blur depth of field
1- contrast brightness
That camera is actually much smaller than I imagined
Does this Camera and its Lenses have a Weather and Dust sealing, like Canon or Nikon ?
It‘s hard to kill a Hassy. Pro stuff.
Yes... actually very good sealing on both the body and lenses....
Do a lens review of the system
It's a point and shoot for rich people?
ThothHeart Maat for Rich peoples Their photos is always have a lamppost behind people Heads
i want the black version
You have obviously never heard of Fujifilm medium format. Three models I might add.
Two have no better capabilities than this X1Dm2 camera while being heavier and uglier.... And I guess you have never heard about Hasselblad? 7 Models I might add... including the H6D-100c... with 100Mpix 53.4 x 40.0 sensor ...otherwise known as real 6x4 medium format....
@@silvestrocrino3256 Wildly over priced, only for the very rich or corporations. Fuji has brought medium format to the masses.
@@petersymes8467 .... If you think the masses are going to pay $10K for a camera body...well...god bless...
@@petersymes8467 This is only $700 more than the Fuji and its a way better camera
Please can do a test and save me another Rental. Take the camera outdoors put model or family model
Totally backlit your background must be really bright use a flash preferably a flash with a T1 of 1/900 or 1/1500
Now try to focus on your subject
Sorry I forgot make certain that your F stop is at f8 and shutter 1/800 1/500. Or 1/1000
You will see the camera will expose on the led viewfinder for the highlights no matter what I try using center and spot metering no avail.
Tell me if they fix that issue please I wouldn’t really appreciated.
Moral of the story you can’t see your model expression????
Hello, I hope he answers your question. I shoot mostly OCF and backlight. I expose my background than I expose for my flash. Is that what the camera has trouble doing??
The lens used in x1 d II is Carl zeiss?
Yes
Killer intro!
Handmade = Hand assembled, in fact most of the professional cameras are lol
X1DII is beautiful but still way technically inferior to Fujifilm (all) GFX-models. A7R IV is a great camera but, no, the picturequality is not mediumformat.
But the 1/125 flash sync of the GFX line is not superior..
the X1DII is only technically "Inferior" to the GFX100... I actually think its better than either the 50S or 50R if only because of the more advanced and easier to use menu system.... But why do you think that its "Inferior" to the 50S and 50R?
Silvestro Crino, Have you actually used both of them? If you have, you wouldn’t ask this question. The Mark II is less buggy but the AF is still really sloooow. And don’t forget about the eco-system. Fujinon lenses are a lot cheaper, sharper, better bokeh, and are more to choose from. The choice is a no-brainer.
PhotoViking ... I’ve actually used all three... the GFX lenses are cheaper....that is about it... with the possible exception of the 110mm f2...which is a great lens....one on one I’d say the Hassy lenses are sharper and are built better... as to AF ...I have to laugh ...all the 50mpix bodies use contrast detect AF... and so they are ALL slow and hunt around in poor light or low contrast situations.... firmware improve the original X1D.... I expect with additional detection points and a faster processor the mark 2 will be better still....but neither the Fuji’s nor Hassy will ever be anything but slow auto focusing....in many situations.... in bright light they will be indistinguishable....
Please do a session for the King of Random, Grant Thompson
But it should have the 100 megapixels sensor !
for that you have h6d
@@arturmavlyuchenko7647 No too bulky and heavy.
@@Anarki2U
That's the reason modt fashion photographers use them.
@@ajinkyathorat7502 Just buy a Fuji GFX 100.
There is not a medium format look when it comes to bokeh, because you Can get the same look (bokeh) with the right lens! and a smaller sensor!
no
Wrong
You're wrong :p
LORD ROY No i am not, its just a thing in the photo World from the filmdays many still belives in 😉
@@JessDemant the medium format look isn't bokeh, it's lack of distortion and a larger frame
What mirrorless camera has the best EVF?
For me Leica SL2
Holy smackers.. I wonder how it compared to the Fuji GFX 100
That would be comparing apples & oranges.
How so? Both are medium format.
@@MrGuitargod91 One has double the MP compared to the other, one is handmade is Sweden and the other is made by a big company in Japan. Plus medium format has a very loose definition these days as compared to the past. Most people looking at the X1D II are not cross shopping.
They cater to a different audience. The X1D is focused on size and portability. The GFX100 is focused on features and resolution. It's like comparing a sedan to a SUV just because they both have V6 engines.
@@tadatube Yep, even Fujifilm understands that... the 50S and 50R have not gone away because the 100S came out... they are all three for completely different use cases...
Do you prefer the X1D or the SL?
Drew Robertson I prefer the xt

massiv fuji fanboys arrival in 3...2..1, oh damn too late they already there
If that was adressed at me, I am a Canon shooter...
telemaq76 Fuji fanboys also love Hasselblad!! Because they know and like real gear! And the Hassy I beautiful...! But SONY fan boys, that’s a different story 🤢🤮🙈
I'm a Fuji fangirl but I LOVE the colors from the Hassy and the design is beautiful. Have never used one so can't say how that is
@@evaeriksson9950 ... by the last firmware update, my X1D had become pretty nice to use...all the bugs squashed and just start it up and shoot...fantastic IQ and i agree on the colors.... but it was definitely no speed demon...operating performance was sluggish especially startup... still for me it was great for travel, architecture, landscape and portraits... all in a nice relatively portable, tough and yes...pretty package. I sold my 4116 (black model) when the rumors of the Mark 2 being registered came out... ordered the new model from B&H and hope to get it soon.... I will be ecstatic if IQ stays the same. Its quite alright (even exciting) that all that changes is the operating performance, EVF, LCD, Card Slots, USB-C (charging) and better processor.... to me this is a nice evolutionary upgrade... and like your Fuji, Hassy has proven very skilled at, and dedicated to, fixing, improving and adding functionality through firmware updates...but now on a camera with better underlying electronics... Kaizen Viking style!
thanks for sharing!
2.7 fps is and always will be very slow.
Beautiful camera!
You can't compare XD M2 with A7R4.
Yes you can actually. Leaf shutters.
Thanks for the review. But carrying $10k plus of loaned camera gear around with you and no camera strap on the body? That’s just dumb. Asking for trouble.
You are in the wrong neighborhood if thats an issue
You lost me at 5.7K.....wow
a 24Mpix, manual focus only, Leica M10 is about $7K ...$500 more if you want an EVF.... This camera is easier to use, just as well built, much more weather/dust resistant, has arguably the same kind of historic pedigree, and most importantly has much, much, much better Image Quality... its a deal in comparison to the M10... or even the SL...
For peoples can’t afford a BMW
A daring and inappropriate comparison....
I dont like this oversharped image
The GFX-50R is a better camera, no doubts.
It isnt.
Yes it is.
@@Guairenito Leaf shutters - your move
@@nelsonclub7722 that is not a problem with hight speed options with flashes and triggers nowadays.
@@Guairenito Sorry the HSS mode you are referring to has nothing to do with the quality of the pictures. My own studio has both - I always take the Hass when its my shout. We specialise in Fashion and portraits and for that the Hass wins every freaking time - and we do sue Elinchrom ELB 1200's on location. The issue with other cameras - including the GFX50R is that half of the time it does not work. The flash drags, or sometimes the sync is off - but regardless of that the colour rendition of a leaf shutter lens is just better - it always has been and always will be - the only terrible thing of the Hass is the electronic shutter - its useless - many people buy adaptors for 3rd party lenses and find out the hard way -Fuji is better for this - we have some of my old Contax 645 lenses and it handles them well. No AF though - but for portraits, people and architecture the Hass is the king - but of course that is just my opinion - also should say I used to lecture for Fuji and was a Fuji ambassador in the UK - but still better is better - have a super day
It's an extremely overpriced so-so camera with a good sensor. The same Leica feeling for this everyday kind of photography you can get from a Fuji XT-3 or even an x-100f.
price tag adds hugely to that feeling, so no.
Comparing Fuji to Leica is like comparing a Honda to a Lamborghini. The GFX 50s is ok but not as good. The Hasselblad has a better sensor, EVF, LCD, leaf shutter is a massive advantage, better ISO range, much higher build quality etc...Plus, the XCD lenses are a TON better than any GF lens.
@@michaelbell75 As a matter of fact I do agree with you. A lambo is better than a Honda. But no one drives a Lambo to work or to the supermarket, unless one wants to show off.
Falando de Amenidades It’s built for rich photographer, but we can see that Hasselblad is trying to lower its body price. Maybe they will become more affordable in the future, because DJI now controls the company.
Keep polishing the camera body and forget you just paid all that cash on a slow camera limited to F2.2, and less lens choices than a cannibal at a vegan lunch.
Plus that big brand name limits where you can travel, you might as well have a big sign on your back that says "MUG ME".
