Most leaf shutter cameras exhibit bokeh artifacts at high shutter speeds. The Hasselblad XCD 35-100 is no different. Here are some images of a distant out-of-focus point source at f/4 and 100mm: You can also seee some inion-ring bokeh from the way the lens was made.
Hasselblad XCD 35-100 light falloff
I tested the XCD 35-100 for light falloff by making 4 images rotated 90 degrees in turn, and averaging them in Photoshop. The subject was a white wall. The lens was focused at infinity. I developed the images in Lr with lens corrections turned off, converted them to monochrome, and reduced them in size so… [Read More]
Hasselblad XCD 100-35 on X2D II, Siemens star, corner
In this post, I continue testing the XCD 35-100 lens. I mounted the lens to the X2D II, and clipped them onto an Arca Swiss C1 that was perched on a Foba camera stand. I set the camera up as follows: ISO 50 AFS-S 14-bit precision Mechanical shutter 4 second self timer Zeiss Siemens star… [Read More]
Hasselblad XCD 100-35 on X2D II, Siemens star, center
I’m taking a break from testing the Hasselblad X2D II body so I can test the XCD 35-100 lens. I mounted the lens to the X2D II, and clipped them onto an Arca Swiss C1 that was perched on a Foba camera stand. I set the camera up as follows: ISO 50 AFS-S 14-bit precision… [Read More]
Hasselblad X2D II FWC, RN at ISO 50
Did Hasselblad play any games to get the base ISO on the X2D II to 50? I ran some photon transfer curves to find out. I’ll plot both of those on the same graph and add a horizontal line at Bill Claff’s Photographic Dynamic Range threshold: Not much difference. It appears that… [Read More]
