if you like to take someone's photo you
use either a cell phone or a camera or a
Polaroid but if you like to capture the
light in someone's eyes and make it live
forever you use one of these worlds
first mirrorless medium format camera
Hasselblad x1 the--
[Music]
I
and here it is Hasselblad x1d comes in
this classy box inside the box you can
find a starting guide and warranty
information a cleaning cloth and memory
stick with user manuals and software in
it and underneath that the beautiful x1d
underneath that the GPS module a wrist
strap USB cable a beautiful strap and
the charger with a lot of adapters for
the lens my weapon of choice was X CD 45
millimeter F 3.5 which provides 35
millimeter equivalent field of view and
that came with warranty information a
lance pouch lens hood and the beautiful
lens itself
Hasselblad x1d has a fifty one megapixel
forty three point eight by thirty two
point nine millimeters CMOS
medium-format sensor that they round up
to 50 megapixels
to put that sensor size in perspective i
prepared this for you this is a one over
three inch sensor you can find these
kind of sensors in your smartphone and
this is the one inch sensor you can find
this sensor in the legendary sony rx100
series and this is the famous Micro Four
Thirds sensor size you can find this in
Panasonic gh4 and this is the almighty
aps-c sensor which you can find in Sony
a 6500 and then of course we come to the
full-frame this is how big it is the
crop factor is based on the full-frame
sensor so how big is the medium format
you may ask well the medium format has
been sitting here all along once again I
just blew your mind I just blew your
mind so next time when someone says
their cell phone takes great photos in
low light you should go mm-hmm
sure so if Sony a7r 3 is BMW 7-series
Hasselblad x1 D is the Lamborghini
Centenario this camera much like a
Lamborghini is handmade I don't know
whose hand made this camera but grip is
so amazing that it feels like she he is
holding my handbag the attention to
detail is absolutely insane
everything about this camera is
champagne and caviar
it is beautifully designed the shutter
sounds like classical music like
Tchaikovsky
that was Nutcracker take a look at the
way you remove the battery you slide
this battery comes out but it's not
falling down we push it in there this
the three inch TFT display is gorgeous
actually 24 bit gorgeous it is bright
and yes it's supports touch and
pinch-to-zoom
the menu is very simple you just slide
it down and here it is you can just
touch this change that like a cell phone
and it's very responsive want to go to
more settings we have more settings here
and in just one day you know where
everything is
it should 16-bit photos with dynamic
range up to 14 stops in RAW format if
you like some JPEG with that you can
turn that on as well the detail you can
recover from 14 stop dynamic range is
insane for example take a look at this
photo can you see these spiders no well
let me play around with shadows and
highlights see immediately we got the
rest of the spiderweb back now look
again spider-man
and if you like flash photography the
lens has in leaf shutter it has dual SD
card slot in micro HDMI USB 3.0
microphone and headphone out Wi-Fi and
GPS every time I hold this camera in my
hand I feel the passion this was build
with every time I look at it I see the
hours that was put in it there are a lot
of cameras out there that will fight you
that doesn't want to work with you that
would pull your hair poke your eyes kick
you in the nuts it will kill the vibe it
will kill the shoe Hasselblad x1d just
works with you it creates a connection
it becomes a part of you and if that is
not the definition of love I don't know
what is

remember when I said if Sony a7r three
is like BMW 7-series
then Hasselblad x1d is like Lamborghini
Centenario yes
now think about parallel parking a BMW 7
versus a Lamborghini centenario
same thing goes for Hasselblad x1d - it
is built for certain things and it
delivers those certain things in an
amazing way for example I was told that
this camera is not for action
photography
but guess what I did it anyways I set my
camera to manual focus and waited for my
prey and soon enough I got this you can
see these photos in my Instagram as well
the link is in the description box below
other than that it shoots two frames per
second it has contrast detection
autofocus you have to protect it from
water it choose 1080p 25 frames per
second 30 megabits per second video and
doesn't have a flip screen and it is
heavy but it captures the soul which
reminds me once I dated this girl Mickey
who lived in United Kingdom the Heinicke
she believed her soul would be stolen if
someone took her photo we were teenagers
when this happened I wonder how she's
dodging the security cameras the
satellite of Facebook and everything
today but you know what for the last
couple of days I've been thinking I
think she's right when the day comes for
me to return this camera to Hasselblad
my soul will go with it this is one of
the best thing that has ever been
reviewed on my channel so far I'll miss
you Hasselblad x1d at this point I'm
just pretending to take photos well
