Hasselblad X1D II 50C
Hasselblad XCD 35-75mm f/3.5-4.5

Examples: Alabama Hills

This page shows examples with the Hasselblad XCD 35-75mm f/3.5-4.5 in the Alabama Hills. Most images used focus stacking and some include toggle comparisons with a single frame in order to compare just how important it is.

Most of the images on this page are focus stacks and panoramas. When I think of the effort required to capture and make computational photography images like this, I find myself thinking of getting half the megapixels for the same amount of effort is not a good ROI of my time versus the Fujifilm GFX100. If I am going to bother, I want maximum reward. See the value proposition. That said, the lens is superb.
