The following video presents Hitting the slopes with Hasselblad X1D:
“From stunning landscapes to thrashing snowboards on the slopes, Hasselblad Ambassador Gian Paul Lozza got a chance to try the X1D in the harshest of environments; the mountains of Japan in sub-zero temperatures.”
The Hasselblad X1D-50c camera has been awarded “Best Design” by TIPA Awards 2017 (Technical Image Press Association).
BEST DESIGN
At less than half the weight of previous medium format digital cameras, the mirrorless X1D-50c camera is ergonomic and compact with a stylish, classic design. Smaller than most full frame DSLRs, it offers impressive user controls and functionality along with a 50MP sensor for image capturing power. Atop the camera is a simplified control dial that includes three user-defined setups for customized control setups. The user can opt to view through the 2.4MP EVF when lighting conditions are challenging or the large, bright and high-resolution, 3-inch rear LCD that offers live view and touch control that can access most of the camera’s functions, as well as playback functions such as swipe and “pinch” zoom.
