See my Hasselblad X1D wish list and Fujifilm GFX wish list.

The ability of the Hasselblad X1D sensor to record a wide dynamic range with rich color and contrast under mixed lighting of widely varying color temperature is quite impressive, as seen in the Flowers at Russian Ridge example.

Here I liked the rich contrast of the delicate high-key whites set against the rich dark greens and blacks. I wanted to see just how well highlight detail would hold up.

In my review of the Hasselblad X1D system:

Includes includes images up to 36 megapixels and two large crops, all from f/3.2 - f/16. Also, notes on exposure and white balance and focus shift demonstrated once again.
