The Hasselblad X2D II 100C is the legendary Swedish camera manufacturer’s latest flagship mirrorless camera and the successor to the original Hasselblad X2D 100C. Just like its predecessor, the new model features a behemoth 100 megapixel medium format sensor, and is aimed at discerning modern professionals who need the last word in image sharpness and color accuracy.
For all the similarities, though, the X2D II fixes some of its predecessor’s glaring issues. The first model — as glorious, indulgent and lovable as it was — lacked features I’d expect in a professional body. The autofocus was very basic, with little in the way of subject detection, while there wasn’t even a focus joystick, often forcing you to rely on the screen instead of the beautiful hi-res EVF.
