thank you for sharing your experience and your passion I have an X2D, but the 500 Hasselblad interests me a lot, it corresponds more to my way of photographing. From what I understand through your video, if we do not use the OVF of the 500 but we focus on the back, mirror raised, the first version of the 500 is enough, the latest innovations of the 503cw are not useful ?.

My issue with the 100c/50c is that the sensor is not square. This makes hard to focus vertical shots with waist level finder. Someday when Hassy introduces a square sensor back, I will seriously consider it.
You can use the crop mode to shoot a 33x33 frame. You can buy square format viewfinder slides online to facilitate composition. Yeah, I know it is not the 6x6, but better than nothing
It’s not the same. Especially for the price, it may not be worth it just shooting crop mode in my opinion. I think at some point, they will have to come up with a square sensor.
HI Thanks for your vidéo ,i am trying this new baby today with my 501 CM and 80mm T ,with stand view finder my pictures were not sharp ,but with LV ,all pictures were sharp ,can you tell me why please ,?
It's very possible that your viewfinder can see clearly, but the lens is not in focus. You can use LV to check whether there is a problem of out-of-focus at infinity.
at 5:49, I think you don't have to press the shutter with T, I see your body has a little "push-up" lever right under your winder. If you push that little tab up, it should also open up the mirror. At lease that's how it works on my 500CW
Thanks for you comment. Yes, you can use Mirror lockup to lift the mirror. But the shutter in the lens is still close. So you can't see the live view on CFV100C. Actually, if you do that, the back will ask you to use release code x. I don't think it is a good choice.
@@左手 I see. Of course you need to wind the camera body in order to open the shutter, but at least if you lockup the mirror, you can use the electronic shutter on the digital back, without pressing the physical button. That's what I saw in another video. I haven't got my 100C yet, I will test it out as soon as I have mine. ;-) Thanks for your videos, they are always great.
