This Camera Changed How I See the World – 2 Months with the Hasselblad X2D

I never thought I’d return to medium format — until the Hasselblad X2D changed everything. From my first failed experience with the Pentax 645Z to a recent comparison with the Leica SL3, this is the full story of how I ended up trading in my Leica and committing to the X2D with the 45P, 75P, and now the 30mm lens.

In this video, I take you my honest verdict, and image showcases, you’ll see why this camera – despite its quirks – has earned its place in my travel bag.
