The Hasselblad X1D represents a new direction for the company, and one to which it remains committed by improving the camera constantly via new firmware. It does a commendable job of combining medium-format image quality and leaf shutter flexibility in a portable (and relatively affordable) package.
-
+
Very well made, Excellent 50MP medium-format images, Relatively compact and portable, Leaf shutter + electronic shutter, Nice touch interface
-
-
Slow autofocus, Poor battery life, More physical controls would be nice
![]() |
The X1D is capable of some very impressive image quality but any advantage over its rivals isn't commensurate with the price premium it demands. It's a small and powerful system but its autofocus, while precise, is slow enough to limit its range of applications.
-
+
High resolution work, especially with strobes.
-
-
Moving subjects.

There’s a class of cameras designed almost exclusively for studio use. Expensive, hulking things, they live their lives on tripods, churning out exquisite portraits and other specialist photography for truly committed professionals.
-
+
Immense resolution and sharpness, The most portable medium format camera yet, Thoughtful, weather-resistant design
-
-
Slow, Eats through batteries and memory cards, Prohibitively expensive
![]() |
The Hasselblad X1D-50c is the world's first medium format mirrorless camera. Its image quality is outstanding, but it's slow and the EVF leaves something to be desired.
-
+
Slim design with medium format image sensor. Incredible 16-bit Raw image quality. Growing lens library. Protected from dust and splashes. Large touch-screen display. USB-tethered operation. Leaf shutter lenses support 1/2,000-second sync. Dual memory card slots. Wi-Fi remote control.
-
-
Choppy EVF experience. Very slow startup and autofocus. Cannot transfer images via Wi-Fi. Limited JPG resolution. Cannot review images in EVF. Live view cuts out after 15 seconds. Underwhelming video experience. Battery life could be better.

The new Hasselblad X1D is a very compact medium format system, thanks in part to its use of an electronic viewfinder system rather than the usual mirror box design. Based on the same sensor as the Hasselblad H5/6D-50c, the camera has a 43.8x32.9mm CMOS sensor with 50MP resolution (8272x6200 pixels).

+ Very compact medium format camera, + Easy handling due to stylish user interface and design, + High-resolution results; fascinating image quality
-

- High price, - New lenses necessary (or usage of converter for H system lenses), - LCD screen is fixed

The X1D needs to be used at a slightly slower pace than full-frame rivals, but the payback is spectacular image quality and a rewarding shooting experience. The clean design is matched by an equally efficient set of controls, and the two lenses we tested are just as impressive.
-
+
Good controls with simple layout, Razor sharp images, High resolution electronic viewfinder
-
-
Slow start-up time, No in-body or lens stabilisation, Lacks speed of smaller format SLR

Being the world’s first medium format mirrorless camera, the Hasselblad X1D-50c certainly grabbed the attention of many serious photographers interested in moving up from a full-frame system.

All in all, I’m impressed and satisfied with the X1D. This isn’t the camera you’d go out and use for your next vacation, but if you do, send me some pictures. The X1D will be best suited for those specialist, professional photographers who find everyday use for 50 megapixels and never went that...

I like to work a scene when I’m out shooting the streets. I find a vibe or background or light or whatever that exudes life, and I drain every last drop of potential the hell out of it.

The narrow depth-of-field associated with medium format cameras gives an unrivalled look and bokeh to your footage.
I absolutely love the images I'm getting with the Hasselblad X1D. It helps me produce the type of images I've always wanted to take. It is far from perfect - It is expensive, slow, and more difficult to use than most smaller format cameras. But it takes amazingly beautiful images!
It's all in the details. Both images and build. Inspiring.
The X1D is a very well built camera, and one would recognize that at the instant of picking up the camera. It is compact, and substantial! The total integration of body chassis - assembled from three aluminum parts (precision milled from solid aluminum alloy block), and the electronics housed inside...
