Honestly both of them work well, but in all honesty the 907x is more experience then functionality while the x2d is functionality over experience. Ngl i really wished they made the hotshoe for the 907x as a part of the back and not a back attachment😭
I own exactly what you have in your hand, I also have an R5. I’ve been shooting and designing for about 30 years so I have a very good sense on gear. I can confidently say you now have the most amazing camera on the market. I own the 20-35 E and I also have the 90V. Get ready to be amazed, amazed beyond compare. I’m excited for you, you deserve this, you make very good video content and you have a great personality. I’m excited to see some new landscapes, architecture, and arctic photos you produce 😎👍🏼
Dude. Don't break your new camera because you won't read an instruction manual. Just relax and read when something isn't working like you thought it would. Those big batteries are expensive, and that camera body is priceless.
It's working... On the other hand it's a slam in the face for those who bought everything with hard earned money! I already bought for thousands of € (H and X-series) but never got anything offered. ☹
@domipro123 Agreed. There's something strange deep down that sticks in our craw, some playground-level feeling of having been unfairly looked over, like the videos of kids who get more while their friends get nothing. There's a human understanding of fairness that itches inside us when we see others get something nice and we get nothing. That said, we all know that influencers do their job for a reason and that they live from the gear talk, which is also predicated on the idea of getting gear on loan. What galls many this time is that they aren't just getting it to review - they get to keep it. Would be interesting to research if this deep-seated sense of fairness leads to any animosity towards the brand.
I purchased the X2D and the 55v earlier this year and it’s been such a pleasure to own and shoot with. Enjoy! I look forward to seeing what you create with it
Same here. I've got the original beast for less than R5 would cost me. With the hasselblads, i'm not the largest fan of their new lineup, somehow it doesn't feel as premium as i'd thought after using 503CW for some time. I've shot it with 80/1.9. Fuji is more plasticky, yes, but you can adapt anything you want on those if the look of the lens is for example too clinical. Zeiss Planar 80 CFi or Canon EF85/1.2 does wonders on these sensors.
@@AnthonyGugliotta I saw large print so it just fits my workflow. I actually like the filling of the camera in the hands and it's not too heavy either. I can't fold it to be honest and the auto focus is dead on for shooting people as well and I'm getting into portraits.
@@KenToney oh so true! I adopted digital in the early days, and I recall many of my camera buddies buying their first DSLRs only to have the improved model come out 2 weeks later 😀
Getting such a camera to keep is insane! congrats! My dream camera used to be one of the 3 flagships , R3 / Z9 /A1 , eneded up getting the Z9 (yes yes Nikon shooter on a Sony / Canon channles , Insert Joke here :) ) My next dream camera Is either the 100S II or The hasse , but the 100S II is pretty attainable And I may get twards mid 2025 if I am lucky. The hassy may never happen.
I had the opportunity to test an X2D in a camera store in Montreal, couldn't keep the photos but it felt super good in hand. That'll probably be the last time I use one though, I doubt I can ever afford a medium format system. Congrats on the new camera!
Dream; To do a Mediterranean cruise, from Rome to the Greek isles, Croatia, South France, Spain, etc. And I'd love to document it. Osmo Action4/5 for my snorkeling and if I do some off-roading. R6ii (or just use my R7) with a 24-70 f2.8L on the city tours, throw a 10-20 f4L for those landscape shots.
DJI is really trying to make Hasselblad a consumer brand since acquiring the majority of them. Seems like every big UA-cam photography channel has one now.
It's hard to say. They're still always going to be expensive because of how they're manufactured which means they'll be out of the price range of most entry level consumers. Me getting to show a Hasselblad camera is kind of like watching a movie in IMAX, most of us will never use an IMAX camera, but we can certainly appreciate the end result and the cinematography that went into the movie.
@@AnthonyGugliottathat’s a good comparison. You’re likely right about the Hasselblad brand, but I do wonder if a new DJI interchangeable lens camera is coming next like rumored. Just seems odd for Hasselblad to be so active on social media all at once like this with a product so out of reach for 99% of us.
It's about making a halo product for DJI so folks with their drones have something to aspire to. Very good marketing move and very good cameras, even though personally i'm not into them
I’m on a Canon RP because that’s all my budget will allow. I’d love an R5 or R6 but, I can’t afford them. I don’t have a dream camera. It’s the photographer and not the tool! Happy Shooting! 😊
I'm kinda grateful I live in Japan and at any time can walk into Yodobashi and try cameras like this as long as they have it in display (You can check it on their website).
This is my crazy first place to my bucket list "Underwater Waterfall" Some crazy aerial perspectives of Le Morne Brabant and the underwater waterfall in front. Yes you heard right! Underwater waterfall what an perfect illusion :) Sand and silt on the ocean floor run off in a way that makes it look like they're pouring down a waterfall, or like the entire island is being sucked down a vast drain. I never seen this before.
I own the Hasselblad X2D, and you will be tempted to take it out on shoots that would be overkill for what this camera does. Blame it on Curiosity and you will be amazed at how much information you can pull from images captured such as the crop ability that acts as a telephoto and macro lens. Also, its high dynamic range can pull details from blown-out highlights and deep shadows. Best of all it has a leaf shutter lens that caps at 1/4000 sec without high-speed sync.
Nice. the big drawback of the XD cameras is the lenses... so $$$, limited, and mostly primes compared to the GFX series. GF lenses are weather sealed and cheaper. If your new 20-35 is as good as the GF 20-35, you're really going to enjoy it! The internal storage is a really nice touch though. I wish all cameras offered that. There's really no reason why they can't.
Man i have been watching your Videos for over a year now . And i know what Cameras you Own . You have all the Professional high end cameras you need . Why a New Camera ?
Hey Anthony! I'm sure you've already shot something with it. BUUUT! if you haven't here's a fun idea: "Hasselblad" translates to "hazel" as the tree with nuts, and "blad" is leaf. Please(!) make the first posted photo one of a leaf from such a tree! ;) //Kim from Sweden
The Fuji 100 MP mirrorless camera is FAR better than the Hassy, and it's about only 1/3 the price. Built like a Sherman Tank, etc. Plus ALL Fuji cameras currently outsell all other brands in both the DX format and the Large Format realms. EVERYTHING but Full Frame ... just because Fujifilm doesn't make Full Frame. Oh yes, and it's also a mirrorless camera, so it's smaller and lighter wright than the SLR style equivalent.
I am using a Sony a6000 and I am really using as much a possible out of it, because i dont have money to upgrade. My dream camera would be a Hasselblad (just like yours) and a Sony a7rv.
How does the image quality compare to a camera that does pixel shift to get those high resolutions? A Lumix s5ii/x does 96mp with this feature for example. Not talking about handling, but pure image quality.
Ah thats so sick man! I won a x2d and 2 lenses. I chose the 25v but the 20-35e would be way better but realeased straight after 😂 I am 17 and I do macrophotography. Do you think I should sell it or explore new kinds of photography?
Please do sooner. Video about the hasselblad, also what about interior filter for canon, what do you think , I have that in my film camera Arri Alexa 35, but is another level of video
How did you know I was researching Medium Format cameras, Anthony? Did google send you my cookies again? I was looking at the poor mans version by putting a medium format .70x speedbooster onto my R5 II so I could adapt medium format vintage lenses on, but I like the idea of Hasselblad sending me one. I'll take that option ;) LOL
@@AnthonyGugliotta I had GFX for about 4 years now and just got X2D not because I needed any other camera. I just couldn't forget the feeling when I held it at BH. GFX has a lot more lenses option. I love my 250mm with 1.4x converter. Probably I will never have something like that in Hasselblad, but Hasselblad is more compact and beautiful, so I carry everyday. :) Oh one thing I noticed, color is a lot more accurate in Hasselblad and the app is very good.

For real, man. I have the sister camera to this one (907X) and it’s a dream. Hopefully getting a X2D in to test against it as well soon.
Next time we meet up... bring the 907x :)
Honestly both of them work well, but in all honesty the 907x is more experience then functionality while the x2d is functionality over experience. Ngl i really wished they made the hotshoe for the 907x as a part of the back and not a back attachment😭

Dude congrats 👏🎉 So cool Hassel did this for you!
And its not what you think.... Everyone and his dog seems to be getting given an x2d atm... So its exactly what i was expecting 😂
I sent Hasselblad a letter saying I'm starting a UA-cam this afternoon and I had one two-hours later. Werner Von Hasselblad handed it to me, himself.
I'm even excited for you and also for me to experience thru your videos.
I'm so happy you got to keep that beast of a camera! Shout out to Hasselblad and your hard work paying off.
My dream camera is a Sony a7 mark iii but this unboxing has made my day! I'm so happy for you!

Super stoked for you and the content you'll produce with it!
2:06 - that's why I'm now saving to upgrade from small EOS R5 Mark II to EOS R1. Hate small cameras!
Can't wait to try an R1! :)

Wow...an absolute dream.
Congratulations on the Hasselblad! But don't leave ordinary shooters with ordinary budgets behind.
Of course! More fun videos coming soon!
Giggled a bit when it came to getting the battery out. Did the same thing when I first got my Leica 🤣
Congrats…enjoy!
I winced slightly when you dropped the box like that, if you had missed the landing that would have been a rather expensive mistake!

Great Video!!
It is what I think it is
I was 50 seconds in before i realized this was a whole video and not a short
That's some camera
i would love to get a canon r5 mark 2 and do a bunch of wildlife stuff
Are you still beholden to the Phocus software for processing RAW ?
Seen all your vedios and i really enjoyed it im from.fujiflim family

why hasseblade are so generous

Thank you very much again..
As regarding my budget am willing to spend a considerable amount of Euros.. i am not that concerned..
Greetings from Greece
Since you got your new dram camera, please give me your old camera 😘
I want a Hasselblad now
Hey dude! I want to buy a 70-200. Is it worth saving up a couple extra hundred bucks for a f2.8 or does it not matter and should I just get a f4.0
I need help with lenses i am getting into photography and in purchasing a nikon D7000 and I'm wondering what lenses i need for landscape/portrait pictures and im on a budget
Have you tried M43 cameras?
Hey man I’m into aviation photography and I’m thinking about gettting a 7D mk2 and I was wondering if my lens needs to. Have a red dot on the side for it to fit or is it just the Ef/EFs lens mount that matters
Awesome!

Since I can't afford it, never looked into my dream camera.
Best auto focusing camera for low light photography and video.
Photo shooting those fursuiters like a Wildlife photographer.
is there any issue in mentioning the camera name in video title? Why so called creator are so annoying. Its look like clickbait, don't do it.
Maybe bcz the agreement with canon.
If you put the name of the camera in the title, anybody NOT interested in XX camera now won’t click the video, which could potentially mean less people watching. Now you tell me, if this is your job do you want less people watching? UA-cam titles are a game that you have to play to win. This is FAR from clickbait.
just get better so you can know what camera it is from the thumbnail
You can literally see it in the thumbnail.
Womp womp
What camera bag is that in the background?
It would be canon r5c with a 24-70 RF lens.
Thank you, I really enjoy watching your videos from your new camera.
I will go hiking to the most beautiful mountain in the world the shoot all the best moment 😂
Does it do 4k60?
