First off, I have no photos taken with the camera, so I don’t want to mislead anyone. I just had the good fortune yesterday to finally get my hands on the new Hasselblad X1d-50C, and play around with it in the store. Ever since it’s been announced, I’ve been going crazy over this camera. I’ve always wanted to get into digital medium format, and from the info I’ve gathered so far, this is exactly what I’ve been looking for.

They’ve been out for a while but I haven’t had the chance to give them a try until now, so here is my short review of them. [continue reading…]
