In this video, we dive deep into the world of adapting third-party lenses to the Hasselblad X2D. If you've ever wondered whether it's worth the hassle, I've got you covered. We'll look at the ins and outs of using non-native glass, including when it works beautifully and when it's better to use native XCD lenses.

    I have owned Nikon cameras for many decades. I currently have a D800, D810, three D850s, and a lot of Zeiss and Nikon 'gold ring' lenses. I use these Nikons for more fast pace photography. However, when I really want to elevate my enjoyment and feel more connected with the photography experience, I grab my Hasselblad camera and lenses, my RRS tripod, slow down, use manual mode, become more methodical and intention, and carefully composed each shot. For me, this results in a greater connection to, and pride in, the gorgeous final Hasselblad images.

    when I had an x1dii i used an adapted hcd 100mm f2.2 using the xh adapter from Hasselblad. That lens truly produced amazing results. Incredible bokeh. I still miss using that setup. But as far as adapting other lenses it is a big no for me using Hasselblad. I am on the fence about getting another, the x2d, or getting a gfx and being able to adapt all types of lenses. I prefer the color science on the Hasselblad though.

The one thing I've always noticed about the larger sensor, through the board is the bigger the sensor the clearer the details in prints A3 and above. And it must be said... you're not printing photos shot on a potato. Leica glass on a Leica sensor... that's the king class. 👑 I think it's awesome you do prints. 👍🏽 It's done too little nowadays. What size do you tend to print at generally? Cheers!
