    Using the Canon 24mm or 17mm TS-E on the X2D

    I have the X2D with the Techart adapter and the Canon 50mm TS-E is working beautifully even fully shifted - little to no sharpness falloff or vignetting. I love how simple it is - no LCC, no need for a tech cam, adapter, expensive Rodenstock or other lenses, etc. For a wider FOV, I am...

    Any third party lenses for X2D that provide the Noctilux look?

    Aside from an actual Leica 50 Noctilux, is anyone using any super fast 50s that would provide a similar look adapted on a medium format sensor like the X2D (I have the XCD 55mm but am looking for a more dreamy look)? I’m considering the Voigtlander 50mm 1.0 but would love to hear any...

    Anyone using the HTS on the X2D for tilt/shift?

    Would love to hear people's experiences using this combination. I was thinking about it, although I'd need to get the 0.8x adapter to help offset some of the increased effective focal length you get from using the HTS 1.5x. I'd use either the 24mm or 28mm HCD (the 24mm is way more expensive but...

    How useful is having a second body?

    Hi All. I have an X2D that I love with a bunch of XCD lenses (20-35, 25v, 28P, 45P, 55v, 90v, 120, and 135). I also have a Leica Q3, but to be honest I nearly always reach for the X2D. I am thinking about selling the Q3, and am wondering if it's worth picking up a second X2D body (I'll...

    How many of you are focus stacking?

    I love my X2D, but often I struggle with getting enough depth of field given the shallower depth of field vs using smaller sensors. I try not to stop down beyond f/11, although sometimes I will go to f/16, but even then it's often not enough. It's time for me to break out the manual and start...

    Which XCD lenses would you bring to Venice / Lake Como?

    I am preparing for a one week trip to Venice (4 days) and Lake Como (2 days), and of course am having trouble deciding what gear to bring with me to shoot the streets/canals of Venice and Burano, and Lake Como. I will be traveling with my wife, so don't want to be too bogged down with a massive...

    What third party “dreamy” lens to complement XCD lenses?

    I am interested in a more dreamy (but not soft in the center) lens I can adapt to my X2D that can give me a look closer to a Noctilux, that can complement my 28p, 55v and 90v. Love my XCD lenses but would like a different kind of option that’s a bit more “painterly” and less perfect. 80mm 1.9...

    WTB: Schneider-Kreuznach 90mm or 120mm for Alpa mount.

    Anyone selling theirs? I know there are several versions - looking for one of the models that performs well on digital (I have the CFV-100c and Alpa STC). I am located in the US in CT. Thanks, Peter

    Rodenstock 23mm on the CFV 100c?

    I haven’t seen any information about or examples from this combo and wondering what the performance would be like. I know you can barely shift on the larger Phase One sensor - wondering how much usable shift there would be on the Hassy sensor. Also what kind of color shifting / vignetting...

    Shift solution for X2D?

    I was hoping the CVF 100C would have IBIS, in which case I would have likely switched from my X2D, and bought a tech cam and wide Rodenstock lens (40mm or wider) for a nice shift option when shooting architecture and urban and coastal landscapes (I do this as a serious hobby - not for paying...

    What small camera body to use with 28mm Summaron?

    I've always had a soft spot for the 28mm Summaron (modern version), and am thinking about picking one up again. I am currently using the Hasselblad X2D system (with a 28P and other XCD lenses, but am considering a really small alternative camera on which I can use the Summaron, for a tiny, go...

    FS: $1100! Canon 17mm TS-E Final Price Drop

    Here's another catch and release for me - great lens but I don't use it enough to justify keeping it. Smooth operation, glass is clean. Free shipping within the US. Thanks Peter

    Last minute panicking about camera choice for trip - what would you do?

    I am going on a one week trip on my sister's boat down the East Coast from Annapolis to Charleston (four days on the boat, three in Charleston), and was planning to bring my DJI Mini Pro 3, as well as my X2D, 21mm, 35-75mm and 135mm. Now I am having last minute thoughts about bringing all this...

    Anyone using Cambo Actar wide lenses with Hasselblad X2D?

    After trying my Canon 17mm TS-E lens out with an adapter on my X2D, I am not satisfied with the quality for landscape and architecture, and am looking into other options, including the Cambo XCD Actar system with one of the wide Actar lenses (15mm, 19mm, 20mm, 24mm). The 19mm is way more...

    Camera recommendation to use to adapt Canon tilt-shift lenses?

    Hi All. I'm using the Hasselblad X2D system and tried adapting my Canon 17mm TS-E on it and it does not perform very well. I'm thinking about picking up another camera on which the TS-E lenses work really well for those times I'd like to use that lens (and the Canon 11-24mm, which is another...

    Anyone using the Hasselblad 907x / 50c back on a tech cam?

    I am thinking about getting a 907x/50c back to use on my Cambo tech cam with my Rodenstock 32mm, 70mm and 180mm lenses. I am curious if anyone else is doing the same and what issues they have encountered, I.e., color-shifts, smearing, etc.? If I am using Lightroom is taking a LCC shot and...
