I’ll get into the Hasselblad game one of these days, that thing is beautiful!

The camera is an absolute beast. Big upgrade from the X2D for anyone who wants/needs focus tracking. Like I mentioned in my video, it’s finally the one I’ve been waiting for all this time. Love seeing your thoughts as always, Jonny.

As bad as I want one, a few things make me glad it's been out of stock at my shop of choice. No horizontal screen tilt for portrait orientation. Joystick that doesn't support diagonal movement. Obviously non issues for most as I've not seen many complaints. But personal annoyances if I decide to purchase one, if it's ever stocked. Fantastic images though!

Here is another “sponsored & unbiased “ video about X2DII😂 I am kind of tired of all of you YouTubers with “free” Hasselblad gear: you are definitely not “unbiased”. I’ll mention just one FACT: af-c and reliable auto focus in (new) medium format digital was around for more than 2 years (not as you stated in your video!). It was implemented in Fuji GFX100II body. I know as I have been using one since day one (especially in af-c/people detection). Yes, af-c works great in X2DI IMHO (I own one) but Hasselblad is only catching up to Fuji in usability and all around “Swiss knife” experience. Don’t get me wrong; I love my X2DII. But, I also love (and trust more) my GFX100II. Time will tell…
I have yet to see real unbiased video on YouTube about this camera. Cheers.

Looking forward to getting mine. Unfortunately the first 35-100E I bought had a major factory defect. No idea how it passed quality control.

I notice you commented about the Fuji GFX AF. I’m coming from an XT5 and was pretty impressed with the AF and animal/vehicle subject detection. How do you feel the Hasselblad stands up?
