Thanks. Your word "Apparently" threw me. Understand now.


Understandably, I should have qualified it.

The SL3 is lighter than the SL2, Z8 and X2D…Hasselblad did a nice job in bringing the weight down on the X2Dii.

Wow, the SL3 is surprisingly heavy.

Nikon Z makes the most sense in the Z6III for me

My 35-100 just arrived. I’m going away for a few days but will do some comparison testing against the 35-75 and Fuji 45-100 next week. It’s a big week though. We’ve got less than 2 week until we move into our new home and I’m printing for an exhibition in October. Unfortunately time will be limited.

My initial impression is I don’t get why some are complaining about the size. It’s just not that big or heavy and balances on the camera nicely. I could easily sling this over my shoulder for a day.

Specific to landscape work, do tell us how sharp those corners are in regards to IQ uniformity. I am in the que for one but if it is like the 38V and 55V and don’t get critically sharp in the corners, I may not even bother with it.

I'm looking for 45P and 65 2.8 XCD corner sharpness and uniformity in 80% of the zoom range.

Mine has arrived. It is a lovely camera. Does anyone know if they can improve the EVF response time when putting your eye up to it through firmware? Because my goodness it is jarring how slow it is.

Have you tried changing Display>Eye sensor distance?

I just changed that to "normal" and it improved it slightly but it is still not great. hopefully they can improve on it.

Yeah, it’s really bad in the larger market.

I went through the same process and eventually it seemed to speed up as it re-learned. It's pretty quick now.

Ok awesome, good to know. I really like everything else I've experienced with the camera thus far.

And the quickest way to change the min shutter speed of Auto-ISO of any camera that I know.

How so?

A lot of reviews are complaining about how difficult it is to change settings on the 907x 100C with no possibility for custom mapping. I really hope Hasselblad pays attention to the 907x as well.

Tried out adapting a few longer Leica R lenses to the X2DII. So far my favorite for telephoto work is the R 180 f2.8 Elmarit on a Fotodiox adapter. First is the full shot and then the second is about a 200+% blowup. Third shot is the R 500 Reflex fixed f8.0.

I am not talking about 907.
With Mark 2, you can click on the front dial and change the minimum shutter speed with the dial.
With other cameras, you must go to the Auto-ISO menu, either by navigating through the menu or by invoking the Auto-ISO setup page via a button.

Not sure what "other cameras" you are referring to. On Sony cameras, one can easily map the "min SS of AutoISO" to any of the four buttons on the thumbwheel and rotate the wheel to exactly the SS that is desired, while the whole time keeping the main finger on the shutter button.

While X2DII's new implementation is "good" but it is in no way "the quickest way" as you have implied.

Thank you for letting me know, I was not aware of that (I just assigned it in on my A1 II). Something new learned after so many years with Sony .
I find X2D II's method (pressing the dial and turning it) a quicker way to adjust, but Sony's method is a very close second.
Why would you keep your finger on the shutter button while adjusting the minimum shutter speed?

Yes, I got it the day following the announcement, but not from B&H because their cart was not working, but I got one from Adorama..


Photo with the HB 20-35 lens.
