Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Fujifilm X-E2S and Hasselblad X1D side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions.
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Fujifilm X-E2S and Hasselblad X1D. Fujifilm X-E2S is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 21mm narrower, 23mm shorter and 34mm thinner than Hasselblad X1D.
Here is the back view size comparison of Fujifilm X-E2S and Hasselblad X1D.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm X-E2S and Hasselblad X1D.
Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm X-E2S is significantly lighter (375g ) than the Hasselblad X1D which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you have to also take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since Fujifilm X-E2S has an APS-C sized sensor and Hasselblad X1D has a smaller Medium format sensor, Hasselblad X1D's lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will generally be lighter and smaller than the Fujifilm X-E2S lenses.

Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather sealed body of X1D, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to X-E2S.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm X-E2S and Hasselblad X1D's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don\'t tilt or flip in directions.
Fujifilm X-E2S has a 16.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS X-TRANS II sensor and features EXR Processor II processor. On the other hand, Hasselblad X1D has a 51.0MP Medium format (44 x 33 mm ) sized CMOS sensor .
Hasselblad X1D's sensor provides 35MP more than Fujifilm X-E2S's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely.
On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.
Another difference between these two cameras is that Fujifilm X-E2S's sensor lacks anti-alias (Low-Pass) filter. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moire occurring in certain scenes.
Below you can see the X-E2S and X1D sensor size comparison.
As seen above, Hasselblad X1D has a 3.9x Larger sensor area than Fujifilm X-E2S. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.
Number of available lenses is a big decision factor while choosing your interchangeable lens camera. When we look at the available lenses for these two cameras, we see that Fujifilm X-E2S has an advantage over Hasselblad X1D. There are 54 lenses for Fujifilm X-E2S's Fujifilm X mount, on the other hand there are only 4 lenses for Hasselblad X1D's Hasselblad X lens mount.
Another important factor is the availability of image stabilization. None of these bodies have sensor based image stabilization so you have to buy lenses with Optical stabilization feature. Currently there are 12 lenses for Fujifilm X mount and 0 lenses for Hasselblad X mount with IS.
