Hasselblad X1D-50c Review: Take the studio wherever you go

Hasselblad X1D-50c Review: Take the studio wherever you go


The Hasselblad X1D-50c is a 50MP mirrorless medium format camera, built around a 44 x 33mm sensor that's 70% larger than 'full frame.'

It's the smallest camera by far to feature such a large sensor and, as well as offering adapted compatibility with older Hasselblad HC and HCD lenses, the X1D sits at the center of a new system with its own family of XCD lenses.The result is the most convincing camera for photography outside of the studio that Hasselblad has made in some time. That doesn't mean the X1D is a speed demon (it isn't), but activities such as landscape shooting suddenly seem more practical.
