    Savage video dude as always. I would say that the whole 100MP being needed for billboards is one of the biggest misconceptions. I worked as a graphic designer for 10 years and never once used an image bigger than 3000pixels on the long side to create a billboard ad. The resolution drops to 150dpi so having high megapixel count isn't overly needed. It's why for Commercial work I'm still not using Sony A7r5, just don't need the extra pixels for clients

    You don't need that gear to produce good streetphotography- it took years for me to understand! I thought when you wanna do better photos you need better gear so I bought a fullframe camera and serveral prime lenses like the 85mm 1.4 GM or the Sigma 35mm 1.4 but I found out that improving your skills is actually more important!

    Wow, some seriously impressive photos there. Thanks for sharing.
    I am unhappy though! I am lucky to have a Sony a7RV (which I love) with a good selection of 5 prime lenses and one zoom. But always at the back of my mind there is that desire for an unaffordable extra … a Leica Q2. This has now been replaced for a serious desire for one of these Hasselblad street kits! This, despite the fact I am still a long way off making the most of my current camera! Thanks for introducing me to such an amazing piece of equipment, and for some great ideas on slowing down my street photography.
    A question if I may? I enjoy the way you manage such dark backgrounds with strong contrast between the light and dark spaces in many of your photos. Do you under expose? Or is this something you do in post? Thanks again.

  • @banditalley9592
    @banditalley9592 Рік тому +3

    The marketing is genius, because the brand is associated with high end, tripod, lights, backdrops, assistants and a whole load of setting up. It's actually a reasonably manageable camera and easily used anywhere you would take a mirrorless or DSLR. Apart from having to remortgage the house obviously...
    Oh, and your intro on its own is better than most full length videos on UA-cam!

  • @Capeau
    @Capeau Рік тому +1

    bit depth has nothing to do with vibrancy, its all about the gradients and steps from the highest point of illumination to the lowest point.
    Thats also why HDR needs higher bit rate because with higher brightness you need more steps to minimize banding

  • @bobsykes
    @bobsykes Рік тому +3

    You illustrated the best thing I found about this camera, the way you can shoot hand held in the street at really slow shutter speeds and get beautiful motion blur of people walking and vehicles in your shot, while the still things are super sharp. It just does that better than any other camera.

  • @n2kos
    @n2kos Рік тому +1

    I would be worried walking around London with mine! Ive had a few issues with mine. Hasselblad are hopeless and never get back to you. The new v lenses are not available unless you wait a year! the 90mm longer. The lenses are very good but big and heavy so kinda making a light camera really heavy. The focusing is slow and it hunts a fair bit in low light, its pretty slow to use. Obviously superb images no doubt about that. The new software update adds some new features but my camera wont update, firmware issue. Great camera bit glitchy, no help from Hassie, frustrating to own but great pictures.

    Disregard the high price of your gear for a moment. My question is about size and weight.
    I am a stupid dog over it. When I go out for a walk I am gone for hours at a time. If I had the money to purchase his camera and lenses I would want to know how heavy is the kit? One of the reasons why I use Fuji cameras is there a small and light. I carry them for hours on end and my back neck and shoulders don’t cry. Could you say the same thing for a hassleblad? The colors in your images definitely pooped.

    Brave man walking around London with £10,000 plus worth of camera with Hasselblad emblazoned across the front. I have the X2D but so far a real paucity of lenses, currently using the older 80mm as no plans for the new lenses to arrive in the UK for 6-8 months. Definitely wouldn’t use this on the street in 2023.
