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!

The BEST 3D Prints for Photography

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).
