In this video I'm testing out Hasselblad's new 100MP camera back that can be used both with the 907x or traditional analog Hasselblad film bodies.

    One correction! I said "SD card slot" when it is actually a CF Express card slot.
  • @Vic-cv3df
    Hasselblad's decision to make this both comparable and compatible with their old film cameras is brilliant, especially in light of the film camera resurgence we have been seeing.

    “Is it really that simple?” - and just like that, a new digital photography YouTube channel is born 😂
  • @Jesko7587
    If you attach it to a (for example) 500cm you can still get the awesome mirror slap and barn door sound. Best of both worlds...

    My man just throws a $13k camera into a Jacket Pocket like it is a Pack of Smokes , and says it is a Bonus Feature 😂

    Hasselblad and Volvo. You're really hitting all the brands of my hometown, Gothenburg. When I was a kid, Hasselblad had manufacturing right in downtown Göteborg. Still have my 500C/M and planning on getting either this or the older 50MP back for it.

    What an absolute beast of a camera, and I really like the huge design elements on the screen. Some really wonderful shots in there too!
  • @iainlaurence
    That looks like a very good user interface, I hope more cameras adopt the visible timer for long exposures. Also a plus that you can attach it to other Hasselblad bodies!
  • @sagealling40
    The freeway collection is awesome. What a perfect application for this camera
  • @snappiness
    Love this round of images for this project. Beautiful!
  • I love the 6AM infrastructure photos because they really capture the early morning great migration of the tradeworkers
  • @matthewyarnell
    Your understanding of light and balanced complexity is really hitting another level in this freeway series.
  • The shot of the paramount pest control building reminded me of Gregory Crewdson’s work in Beneath The Roses! The concept of this project is really cool and the images are we cooler!
  • @johndaily263
    I like cameras that I can afford to replace if I drop them. I’d be terrified to use something that expensive, even as a loaner.
  • @ExpiredFilmClub
    This is freaking awesome. Kudos to Hasselblad for finding an amazing way to keep film camera bodies alive too
  • The Volvo V70 T6 is such an underrated car. Great video and cheers to you for some early morning stuff bud!
  • @beatleswerecrap
    These are such incredible shots for what is ostensibly a gear review. So glad you took the plunge to test gear in an actual project not dry test settings. Great vid!

    As a former film photographer, I used the “poor man’s hasselblad” Kowas. Digital is so rewarding and you know instantly if you get the shot. 100 mpixels is so dream come true. I hate that I can’t afford it. Thanks for sharing your experience. Aren’t you the lucky one?
  • @MrOpiumDubs
    10 seconds in and I'm having a heart attack how you're waving that thing around you got some balls mate 😂
