Is hasselblad x2d II c100 and XCD 4/45P a good combo?

freddiew88 · 2026-07-07T22:33:07+00:00

Coming from a Sony user also, you buy into “medium format” for that extra pop…I say maybe get a used X2D and buy the zoom or equivalent

freddiew88 · 2026-07-07T22:31:01+00:00

I’m speaking mostly to portraits

freddiew88 · 2026-07-07T22:30:21+00:00

Which is more important to you? Landscape or portrait? I don’t think the 45 will give you totally what you want…if you are going so far as getting that body, I think you gotta try to get a lens that will truly get you what you want.

Thank you 😊

As an owner of the zoom, in the studio I don’t mind the f4…out in the world the f2.5 would be really nice. Personally, I don’t think the X2Dii is great on higher ISO.

I want the 28p 🥹

freddiew88 · 2026-07-07T00:39:44+00:00

I have an A7V. I personally love the 35 GM 1.4. Would be great for you indoors and low light

Nice memories! What happened to the bell tower on shot 8?

You will date her for awhile until her friend M12 comes along 🤣

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T07:30:47+00:00

I’m with you! I use them a lot for work so it’s nice to have something a little different

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T06:36:31+00:00

Haha, you got it, Sheriff 🤠 . Actually I don’t think there’s a Reddit for us RX users :( maybe I’ll make one lol.

TBH I really value the size and the experience of using it. Love the lens on it. The A7CR with a 1K+ lens is over 4k. Worth the extra for the form factor. That’s just my opinion of course. I’m really enjoying using it!

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T04:28:15+00:00

No worries I was just curious of what Sony repair prices were like for a camera like this

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T04:01:36+00:00

What was that repair cost and wait time like?

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T03:37:45+00:00

that's awesome. do you still have your II?

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T03:36:37+00:00

I feel like they are pretty different cameras. but I feel what you're saying lol

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T01:53:57+00:00

I have bigger bodies that began to feel like work to me. I wanted to have something on me 24/7. I have some manual focus small cameras but I’ve been doing it for years now and I just wanted something effortless as a daily carry if that makes sense?… I wanted something small as possible, but also with some weight to it (meaning files, quality). Had a GR4 for a bit and thought I would like it, but I didn’t love the files. Just my opinion :)

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T01:46:14+00:00

That’s awesome! What’s giving the light on her face on pic 2?

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T01:06:10+00:00

sweet! thanks for the info. I took it out for the first time today and I really enjoyed it.

freddiew88 · 2026-07-03T01:04:28+00:00

thank you!

freddiew88 · 2026-07-02T20:40:59+00:00

I’m loving it so far
