The Hasselblad X1D-50c is a mirrorless medium format camera from one of the most famous camera brands of the 20th century. Following a series of feature-enhancing firmware updates we've been able to complete our review.

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.

The first medium-format mirrorless interchangeable-lens model is pretty small and light for its class.

I don't know that anyone was ever prepared to say medium format was "tiny" or "lightweight," but here we are in 2017 and I spent the last couple of weeks carrying the Hasselblad X1D-50c across the country and up mountainsides like it was a point and...

Back in June of last year, I previewed the Hasselblad X1D. Then, it was a pre-production model, which I had hoped would launch and become the powerful mirrorless medium format camera that it is now

There's a terrible noise every time I click the shutter. Like a machine out of an office in the 80s clawing its way thirty years into the future to emit an obnoxious noise from this stunning camera in my hands.
