New Hasselblad X2D II 100C Camera and XCD 35-100mm f2.8-4 Lens Official Teaser
Hasselblad is turning heads with a fresh teaser on their official page for its upcoming launch: the new X2D II 100C and the XCD 35-100mm f2.8-4 lens, set to be unveiled on August 26th at 14:00 CEST (8:00 AM ET). As the successor to the X2D 100c, the new body packs a 100MP BSI CMOS sensor promising an impressive 15.3 stops of dynamic range. But the real jaw-dropper? A claimed 10 stops of in-body image stabilization. That’s a number we’ve never seen before, until now, the highest I can recall was around 8.5 stops from heavy-hitters like the Canon R5 Mark II , Canon R1, Sony A1 II, and OM System OM-1 II.
