UNFOLDING A NEW CHAPTER OF IMAGING X2D 100C

With the Hasselblad X2D 100C Lightweight Portrait Kit, photographers are introduced to a new era of imaging possibilities. At the heart of this extraordinary kit lies the X2D 100C, boasting a remarkable 100-megapixel medium format BSI CMOS sensor.

To capture crisp and steady handheld portraits, the X2D 100C features 5-axis 7-stop in-body image stabilization (IBIS). This powerful stabilization system compensates for camera shake, allowing photographers to confidently shoot in low light conditions or at slow shutter speeds, resulting in sharp and detailed images.

The X2D 100C takes autofocus to new heights with Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF) technology. This advanced autofocus system delivers swift and precise focusing at the press of a button, ensuring that every portrait is perfectly captured, even in dynamic shooting situations.

To accommodate the storage needs of professional photographers, the X2D 100C is equipped with a built-in 1TB SSD, providing ample space to store over 4600 RAW photos. This generous storage capacity empowers photographers to capture high-speed, large-batch, and high-quality portrait sessions without the worry of running out of storage space.

Both lenses included in the kit, the XCD 1,9/80 and XCD 4/45P, feature an integral central shutter, offering exposure times ranging from 68 minutes to 1/2000s with full flash synchronization. This versatility allows photographers to explore their creativity even in challenging mixed-lighting scenarios, seamlessly blending artificial flash and natural daylight to achieve stunning portraits.
