I just tried a used X1D II in a shop and was amazed how fast it was. I thought it would be really slow, but I guess those reviewers never shot with a Canon DSLR combined with the 85mm F1.2
Thank you for sharing your video; it's excellent. I have a question regarding the accuracy of the autofocus (AF) in the X1D II. I've seen some videos where users mentioned that despite the AF appearing to lock onto the subject, the photos still appear blurry when viewed on the monitor. Have you experienced this issue with the XCD 35-75 or 90 lens?
To first answer about autofocus, it's "meh" on the X1Dii. It does miss focus quite a bit. The 35-75mm has a relatively quick AF motor so it's easy to refocus and try again. Whereas slow focus lenses like the 45P just have you completely lose the moment. I just got my 35-75 back today from service. It took six months this time. Anyway, I'm not certain if they're facing the same problem as I did but I'll describe my situation. The images with the 35-75 did come out blurry at the longer focal lengths. At 35mm, it looked fine but when I zoomed into 75mm things got blurry. When I got the X2D, the 100 megapickles showed that the images were getting this double exposure effect that 50 megapixels couldn't resolve. So, Hasselblad swapped out the shutter mechanism so I hope that does the trick. I don't know, I literally got this lens back about 5 hours ago, so I haven't been able to test it again yet. My 90mm has been good to me.
I'm glad that you liked the samples. I just hope you didn't have to loop back to listen to my mumbling. I need to do some speech training... "Y'know?" Golly, I caught myself saying that filler word repeatedly at work two weeks ago.
beautiful photos! I had an x1dii and do miss it. I now have an a7cr and I definitely miss the out of camera files the hassseblad provided. To me I love the fact that hasseblad has a standard picture profile and that is it. It's like this is what you get, like shooting film. and you really hardly have to edit the files. I usually did exposure and contrast. Im super tempted to buy another. I also had a gfx 50sii and returned it within a week. Definitely does not have the same color the hasseblad has. Thanks
You sure you want to come back to glacial autofocus versus your A7CR? :P But I must agree with you on color. I really like Hasselblad's interpretation.

@@elliotnahm Thanks !
The colors are amazing. Ok, it’s TH-cam but anyway…
Perhaps a good friend of my Leica 😂
Best review with photo samples

@@elliotnahm hahah true. The autofocus is amazing on the Sony. I think my plan is to have both eventually!
thank you this was so helpful
Glad you found it useful!
