Is that the camera and back they announced in June 2019?
I hope that it will at least be fully functional from day 1 and that the users who waited 8.5 months won’t have to deal with a partial list of features and/or some bugs.
Cheers,
Bernard

“Cheers”? Really? You message communicates anything but.

“Cheers”? Really? You message communicates anything but.
I can’t say that being an Hasselblad customer has been a rewarding experience.
- it took about one year for the very expensive H product I bought to behave as advertised
- Hasselblad has made zero effort to port to the H platform the firmware improvements developed for the X1D
- more than a year after the IQ4-150 was announced there is still no sign that H will attempt to compete and deliver a new H back with better tech camera behaviour
- the H line has been dropping in value faster than expected due to the total lack of communication of Hasselblad
So cheers is indeed nothing but my standard signature.
Cheers,
Bernard

Dear all,
I have a Phase One IQ280 and a XF camera kit and I am tempted to buy a 907X+CFVII50C for my Hasselblad 503CW. I would like to use Capture One as library and ideally also for editing. As Hasselblad`s RAW 3 F files need to be imported in Phocus, what would be the best workflow ?
Thanks in advance for your help !
Norbert

The price and features are very attempting. But I think XCDII would be a better choice.
1: 907x does not come with EVF, and probably intended. Its WLF is a plus but may take quite some practice to get used to, particularly for quick composition, tracking, and focusing.
2: 907X does not have an integratible hand grip yet. It should be easy to add, but wold not be as convenient as XCD type.
3: The biggest pro of 907X is to be part of the V system, but what's the point if the sensor is only 44x33? I not complaining the non-square format yet.
For people happy with 44x33 format, XCDII is the way to go.
I still want a DB for my V stuffs, but that would be in the scale of 54mm or at least 49mm.
Or, forget about V, just go straight to XCDII.

Photographers today certainly have a lot of different options to suit their individual needs and desires. We pick the option that suits us best and go for it.
This fellow sums it up very nicely and in few words on this post linked below...

Whether it's the people we know or the tools that we use, for a more enjoyable life I think the main focus should be on what they do for us; because no one in our life and no thing we posses can do everything or please us all the time.

Thanks a lot for the link. It's very interesting and useful.
I still think the lack of EVF is a mistake, but it may be OK if:
1: Always use a V body (exclude the 38mm). Because a V camera like 500xxx has a nice OVF and that does not need VF at all.
2: Use it with a proper LCD hood (may already exist)
But, the best wish is an integrated EVF + Grip from Hasselblad (using the USB-C connection?).

I really love the concept, i think it would make a perfect 2nd body along with the X1DII but there are a few things holding me back at this point...when hasselblad upgraded the X1D they chose a bigger rear LCD, this would be even more important on the CFV IMO, the camera has no finder, the LCD should be as large as possible,
also: right now I am not sure how comfortable shooting vertical would be with the CFV....We know that fuji can do a 2 hinge LCD, this camera needs one as well....
Some integrated way to attach a hood or classic chimney finder...with loupe....
I understand that this all might have added some weight and or size to the back, they did manage to fit the battery inside, which is great but i don’t think a larger LCD on a double hinge with some kind of frame to clip on a finder would have added that much in size or weight, maybe harder to fit in with the design?
