The Hasselblad X2D II 100C is a unique Medium-Format Mirrorless Digital Camera with multiple best-in-class capabilities. This model is part of the Hasselblad XCD system designed to build the smallest Medium-Format cameras possible. The first consequence of the this is that no XCD cameras have a mechanical shutter, instead the rely on leaf-shutters inside the lens, making it virtually impossible to adapter third-party lenses. The second is that the X2D 100C does not have any video capabilities.

This Medium-Format camera is built around a huge 100 Megapixels 44x33mm CMOS sensor with a 4:3 aspect-ratio that is typical of large-formats. With the X2D II, Hasselblad created the most effective image-stabilization mechanism ever! This new 5-axis image-stabilization system compensates for up to 10-stops of shake, making it possible to capture multi-second exposures without using a tripod! The camera supports exposures of 1/6000s to 68 minutes.

The enormous volume of data captured by each image, which reaches 100 Megapixels images in 16-bit RAW mode, restricts the speed of this mirrorless to a maximum of 3 FPS. This type of camera is mostly used for static and slow moving subjects. So, it not a general purpose camera yet it is certain to excel at landscape, architecture and night photography.

This professional camera incorporates an enormous 5.8 Megapixels 0.66" EVF with 1X magnification, 100% coverage and an essential Eye-Start Sensor. There is also an exceptionally large 2.4 Megapixels 3.6" LCD at the back. Hasselblad made this model weatherproof and freezeproof to -10C. The one major professional feature missing from the X1D II is dual memory-card slots. Instead, this Medium-Format Mirrorless Digital Camera includes a single CF Express Type B slot plus internal memory. Also, while the Hasselblad X1D II 100C offers dual control-dials, it has significantly fewer physical controls than virtually all professional cameras.

The Hasselblad X2D 100C is an incredible and highly specialized digital camera. It produces extremely high-quality images with an outstanding amount of details and high dynamic-range. At 840g, it is very light for a Medium-Format camera, even while packing a class-leading IBIS with 10-stops of efficiency!
