Hasselblad X2D II at B&H Photo, Amazon, Adorama, FotoKoch, Foto Erhardt, Calumet DE, WexUK.

DJI owned Hasselblad has officially unveiled the new X2D II medium format camera  (B&H Photo, Amazon, Adorama). It brings a couple of exciting new features:

• 10-stop IBIS – That’s right. The X2D II offers the world’s most powerful in-body stabilization to date.
• Integrated LIDAR autofocus – A world first: Hasselblad has built in a LIDAR module for ultra-precise focusing, even in challenging low-light conditions.

The camera is also LESS expensive than it’s predecessor, has a joystick (finally), new finish, better JPG engine and other improvements that make it quite a hot new release!

Here are the rumored specs:

• Based on the Z6 III sensor, but with a new body design: no EVF, brick-shaped, large LCD – similar to RED cameras, Sony FX3, and Nikon Z30.
• It’s not a RED camera with Z-mount, but a Nikon body with RED tech inside.
• A silver Nikon Zf is also expected, but likely later in the year, after the Zr.

The Hasselblad X2DII and the 35-100mm lens will be announced this week on August 26 at 2pm Berlin time!

3D printing and photography hobbies go hand in hand! These are my favorite camera, lens and photography related prints just to give you some ideas. If any of this appeals to you I strongly recommend picking up a 3D printer. Or convince a friend to do it and share (I print things for my friends all the time lol).

The EISA Awards have been announced, naming the Sony A1 II as “Camera of the Year.” However, the awards remain controversial due to the organization’s close ties with the industry.

I just want it to work and don’t want a ton of sliders I have to change. I like the turbo mode which makes processing faster.”
