Hello everyone. thanks to watching Colorbee Photography Life magazine. I'm Brian. ​
Please don't worry about pressing the fast-forward button to see the girl ​
Listen to me for a few seconds first. ​
Since our studio bought Hasselblad X1d ​
We are also thinking: How much is the medium format camera better than other cameras? ​
Today We going to have a comprehensive test and make a comprehensive review of
the landscape, portrait, low light and street photography with those cameras
then you can go forward now. ​
please get your paper ready. of cause a pen. ​
please write down that you thought and share with us. thank you ​
Hasselblad X1d 50c features medium format CMOS sensor. actually, size is 44x33mm ​
it is 68% larger than full frame 36x24mm sensor. ​
What effect does this increase in size have on image quality? ​
Let's choose a compare model ​
who has a large sensor in a mirrorless form, ​
it has to be with high-quality lens range as well.
Will not be GFX50 ( we don't have it) ​
We have Sony A7R3 match all criteria ​
but it seems too cheap compared to $10k X1d ​
Let's find a camera that is comparable in price to it. ​
Let us warmly welcome the owner of this camera ​
Leica ambassador, Senior Josh :) ​
Good to see you again. what camera did you bring today? ​
today .fot this episode I bring a Leica current model- Leica M10 ​
M10 has 24m pixel full frame sensor
Although it is a rangefinder camera, ​
it satisfies the compact and mirrorless features ​
So its optical quality and price are close to X1d
Today we are evaluating landscape, portraits, and lowlight, ​
so the lens we use is 30mm 45mm 90mm, ​
which is equivalent to 24mm 35mm and 70mm. ​
then what lenses you have today? ​
I got a Zeiss 21mm 2.8, Leica 35mm and 75mm f2. ​
In the Sony range. we pick up sigma 24mm 35mm and Sony 85mm GM.
let's find out ​
# Studio Test # ​
Landscape Test ​
it is local time 5 PM. about 20 minutes before sunset. ​
the best time to test our cameras. ​
# Low Light Test #
Okay. We want to talk about the shortcomings of these cameras first. ​
It is necessary to talk about shortcomings, ​
This will affect whether the customer decides to buy this camera. ​
Let's talk about SONY first. ​
The biggest drawback of SONY is that compared to other cameras,
SONY is too cheap. ​
SONY A7 is already a third generation product. ​
After the first two generations of people in the process of use, ​
they constantly proposed improvements. ​
Now it has become a very mature model. ​
The biggest drawback of Hasselblad is slow. ​
too slow. ​
when you switch it on, you must count 10 seconds. ​
if you are a street photographer. ​
please ensure your camera all the time. ​
another design I don't like which is touchscreen. ​
if you want touch select AF point. ​
you have to press a button and then activate AF selection. then touch. ​
the video function just better than nothing. ​
but it has headphone and microphone jack. it has HDMI output on the body. ​
So. Could you please tell us about something you don't like in Leica M10. ​
Not much but the price, ​
it seems very expensive for this such small camera ​
and also M10 doesn't have a video function. ​
the reason is its cooling system. ​
new Leica M10 has a newly designed compact body. ​
the size of the body much slimmer than the previous model. ​
so Leica sacrifices video function to get a compact body. ​
Leica doesn't care about video industry anyway. ​
（Voice over: Leica has Cine Lenses range) ​
Sorry about my bad jokes. ​
I believe that people who buy these three cameras depend on one of the most important factors: image quality. ​
The benefit of having a medium format camera is based on the quality of the picture. ​
Sony A7R3 is also a 35mm system caerma for the pursuit of picture quality ​
The most beautiful thing that Leica's color. ​
then who is the best? let's take a close look in Lightroom and take a close look side by side: ​
First of all, we simulated the studio light shooting. ​
We can see that there are no obvious differences between Hasselblad and Sony. ​
Sony tends to little bit "sharper" which I think because of its sharpness process in camera. ​
Then some people might have a question: ​
What're real benefits to having a medium format camera? ​
Let us simply pull the highlights to the lowest, the shadows to the highest, ​
and look at the excessive and shadow parts of the face. ​
You can see that the shadows are very natural after the adjustment of the Hasselblad. ​
There is no color fault,
which is the advantage of 16-Bit RAW and medium format sensor. ​
For the amateur photographer, the difference can be ignored, ​
but for commercial photographers who want to show the details of the product, ​
Hasselblad is more trustworthy. ​
Leica M10 with only 2400W is more disadvantageous, ​
but it takes advantageous from 75mm f2 ASPH lens high resolution, ​
the resolution of the picture is not bad, ​
M10' new CMOS is obviously improved from M240. ​
The picture quality from M10 close to Sony A7, it still took amazing photos.
The Hasselblad medium format system has the leaf shutter ​
and X1D is no exception. ​
This has great advantages for commercial photographers to use flash. ​
Photographer can use any brand of flash any brand of a flash trigger to achieve 1/2000s sync speed, ​
which is very advantageous for set fast aperture in high contrast light condition
this is the characteristics of Hasselblad ​
(note that the GFX50's flash sync speed is only 1/125s) ​
Let's take a look at the high-performance performance of these cameras ​
in ISO 12800, Hasselblad picture quality has completely collapsed ​
Compared with Leica, there is basically no possibility of use.
Leica's M10 has a great improvement in image quality, ​
which is very close to A7R3 and even better. ​
The Hasselblad system is subject to the aperture of the lens, ​
and it is very difficult to shoot at night. ​
For landscape photographers, there are many factors to choose. ​
In terms of image quality, the two 4000W+ pixel cameras have excellent performance, ​
when the shooting in the studio. Sony is more subject to 14bit RAW and pixel density. , ​
16Bit Hasselblad RAW details are much better and more natural. ​
in terms of portraits at night, ​
Hasselblad is subject to doesn't have large aperture lens as 1.4. ​
It is very struggle in low light, ​
and contrast focus is difficult to focus accurately. ​
It can be seen that the picture has a certain difference in bokeh compared with the M10. ​
Actually, the manual focus Leica is still quite good. ​
In summary
Hasselblad, SONY, and Leica, we didn't see the expecting brand competition, ​
but we have seen three manufacturers that accurately target three products to people with different needs ​
Hasselblad X1D, it is SHARP, ​
incredibaly sharp even the aputure widely open. ​
the 16-bit RAW files give incredible sharpness and details. ​
it appears a medium-format camera suppose to be. ​
Suitable User who: extreme long exposure. internal interval timer for landscape. ​
It’s completely designed for landscape photographers. ​
Because it has a compact body that is similar in size to a mirrorless camera, ​
it is suitable for photographers who need to travel a lot ​
or high-intents work shooter, such as wedding photography. ​
In addition, the X1D lens has the leaf shutter, ​
so it is easy to achieve 1/2000s flash high-speed sync, ​
which is also very friendly for commercial photographers. ​
However, as a commercial equipment, it is slightly inconvenient to operate without a flip screen. ​
Not suitable to people who: ​
Since the X1D's lens option is very limited, ​
the current lens map only has from 21mm 30mm 45mm 90mm 120mm, 5 lenses ​
According to Hasselblad's lens roadmap, ​
According to Hasselblad's lens roadmap,
o that it can cover an equivalent of 16mm to 180mm. ​
You can try the Hasselblad HC lens adapter, ​
but there is no fast aperture lens could use. ​
In addition, People who expect X1D to take high-quality street/documentaries photograph. ​
I should say you can wash and go to sleep :) ​
I'm not to mention that X1D take forever to "wake up" after you press "on" button. ​
the subject is gone, the camera is not ready yet XD ​
The accuracy and speed of Hasselblad's autofocus system depend on luck. . . . ​
Anyway, it’s better than nothing, sometimes I rather use Leica manual focus lens. ​
Speaking of Leica, the M10 is a good camera ​
that has improved the high-sensitivity and dynamic range of the previous model M240. ​
The brighter viewfinder, new weather and dust proof body and so on, ​
The brighter viewfinder, new weather and dust proof body and so on,
all make the M10 more suitable for street photography: reliable, fast, low-key. ​
The Leica M lens is compact. ​
The 35mm 1.4 and 50mm 1.4 are a perfect match for street /documentary photography for M10 ​
If the future M10-P removes Leica red label, in street photography, ​
the person who knows the brand will respect your work. ​
If they don't know the brand, they think it is just a cheap ordinary camera. ​
As the shutter release quitely, ​
you captured another classic moment. . . ​
Some people might say that Leica's high ISO is not good. ​
I don't think that Leica doesn't optimize high ISO, ​
but please put in this way. where every needs a high sense of 12800 or more. ​
It can't be seen with Leica manual focus anyway, hahahaha. . . . . ​
Finally, SONY A7R3, among these three cameras, ​
on the comprehensive performance, ​
R3 has completely smashed the other two cameras. ​
It is not because of its outstanding performance in all aspects, ​
but rather the combination, and there is no fatal shortcoming. ​
For street photography, under the compact body, ​
it has great high ISO performance that can ignore any dark environment, ​
A7R3 focus system very reliable, ​
for commercial photography, it has a fine image quality of 42m pixels ​
if you use pixel shift stack function to achieve static images of 160million pixels. ​
With a high-quality lens covering from 12mm super wide angle to 400mm telephoto ​
there is a Techart adapter that allows Leica M lens autofocus on Sony body ​
Not suitable: ​
SONY A7R3 really has no bottleneck. ​
The only problem may be. . . Not expensive enough. ​
These three cameras have their own characteristics and each has its own expertise. ​
The result is that they are not crushed by competitors ​
but rather the wallets of many photographers and equipment enthusiasts. ​
thanks for watching Colour Bee Photography Life Magazine. ​
I am Brian see you next time :) ​
