STREET Portrait Photography with Hasselblad X2D and XCD 90V 

This is just like a wet dream for me. The set you use here will cost the tidy sum of NOK 150.580,- in Norway, which corresponds to approximately GBP 11.450,- in the UK. Interesting to watch, but I miss the videos where you show your creativity within i.e. street photography, composition, and your brilliant editing skills. I have learned a lot from your previous videos and I hope you will come up with more of their kind. Anyway, thank you for sharing, and have a nice day 🙂

Hi Mark, considering the X2D - although definitely getting different reviews - my current Camera is Sony’s A7R5. The interest in the X2D is the colour system although I do tend to take photos in dark environments with no ability to use flash or tripods.

Why 1600 ISO?

a big thanks to Sony for releasing the a9 iii and bringing attention to flash sync speed...

😍💚

your videos getting so bored ! only commercial and nothing like the videos that you make before - the real photography passion! with different ideas and stuff.... too bad! :(

The XCD 90V certainly looks like an awesome lens! I see other comments in regard to you featuring such high-end kit, but hey, I can't afford any of the cars they feature on Top Gear, but I still watch it to see Supercars being put to the test, and I think you do provide a balance in the kit you use. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the video. I just came across your RU-vid Channel because of this review. What annoys me, is reading all the negative comments about you making these videos for such expensive kit. At the same time those people do not feel ashamed asking for free tutorials and other free reviews. I wonder how many of these people have financially supported you and your work and videos, for which you certainly spend a lot of your time. Also I wonder what their value to the community is, how much work for free they are offering. Probably not a single minute. So don't listen to those people and do what feels right for you.

Whilst I very much doubt I will be able to afford this great looking combo, it's still a great video yet again from you Mark. One can always dream!!!!

Images look incredible buddy. 👌

Been wanting to see the 90V and 80 compared. Thanks for putting it together

That's like a bazooka to a knife fight

Great video. I’d love to track down a rep in Canada to get hands on.

can I ask how you were focussing when she was walking? as there's no continuous focus on my X!D - is there on the X2D?

Do you use Phocus for these or Lightroom?

Do you also happen to have the 55V? Could you also test out the auto focus system on that lens?

Не обрезай ноги бро)

I don’t understand this hype about the 90V when Hasselblad charts cleary show that the 90mm 3.2 is optically better! How can a lens be just judged for autofocus and lighter weight and speed when the whole point about using Hasselblad is optical quality???? 2.5 makes no difference with 3.2 aperture when most of the time we close down because depth of field is too shallow! How can a lens with this price tag need post production correction in Focus… sorry for 1000 euros lens, the 3.2 makes much more sens!

Is there any chance that you are selling a framed print for that picture at 0:39?!!?

i am so jelly on that camera set up! 😢

Please I thank you very much for this tutorial, please I would to learn dark moody effect in photoshop, I could see that them running through all your pictures, it makes your images outstanding, could you please give us a detailed tutorial on how you can achieve that effect in photoshop

This camera and lenses are not in reach for a mortal consumer. More than 11k euros is too expensive for any photographer but for professionals who rely on the highest quality of lens and camera. I enjoy hearing about the camera/lense and seeing the results which can be achieved but at this price I wouldn’t anything less spectacular.

Hi Mark, I am an owner of Hasselblad X1DII, how this lense will work on this body? No autofocus? Do you have any chance to test it? Thank you

These images are beautiful!

do you still use your Sony a7iv

Looks like shooting would be so much easier if the X2D had a flip-out screen

My Dream, pero no tenes en Brazil!

Cool video and of course, as always, phenomenal shots! However, I always feel bad after such videos because as a normal person you can't afford such a camera or such lenses.

Is X2D better than Leica M11?

I agree with a previous comment. What audience are you trying to connect with because any lens that costs this much is out of reach for most people.

I just want to know if this is NYC. If so, where?

❤

80 or 90v, it is really hard to choose...

I now have all three of the V lenses and that 90v is without doubt the best of them, if not the noisiest! Great video, thanks

These cameras are well over 10k in Canadian $$$ without a lens. No amateur photographer is buying any of this gear 😂. Wonderful cameras but cmon lol.

🤣what amatuer has £10k to spend on a camera?

Anyone here got Hasselblad money?
