Quote from: AlwaysRichard on September 10, 2023, 01:12:35 PMI think I figured it out, the leaf shutter on the XCD 35-75mm lens is defective.

I now have had the exact same problem with my XCD 35-75mm lens. Tack sharp when used with electronic shutter. Jittery/unsharp images when using leaf shutter. It'll go to Hasselblad for service next week. I'd be interested in any repair experience you've had with the lens. Thanks.

Hi Joe, how did it go? Is it solved?

I sent the lens to Hasselblad for examination and repair. They concluded that the lens was within specs and sent it back to me. I subsequently sold the lens.

Quote from: NickT on April 28, 2024, 03:44:45 PMHow about an iPhone to 4X5 adaptor.. I'm tempted:

I have something like that, somewhere in my mess of curious junk, that adapts an iPhone to Hasselblad V system SLR bodies. It's fun but mostly useless because it is so awkward to use. I similarly have a wacky adapter that fits InstaxSQ onto Leica M bodies ... it's a bit more usable, but not as usable as the NONS InstaxSQ Hasselblad V system back.

All fun stuff ... Finding a way to use these things and produce interesting photos is the challenge. :D

Same issue here. Just used the zoom for shooting some casual landscapes while hiking (no tripod) and 90% of the images are blurry (if only slightly). This did not happen with the X1D II.

Quote from: JCM-Photos on April 29, 2024, 05:22:09 AMPlease note that all 8 Hasselblad mirrorless cameras use the same interchangeable form factor batteries, the 2 X1D models the X1D2, the X2D, the 4 907X models.

I simply use the original cardboard packaging, after removing the internal cardboard holder, 2 batteries fit exactly in one box.

So if for example you buy 3 batteries and you have boxes for 6. The cardboard can be varnished to reinforce it, so i lasts longer.

PERFECT!

For what it's worth, I've never felt the screen on my CFV II 50c has a noticeable cast (though it is very contrasty) but it may well be different to the one on your 100C. I don't know if the colour temperature is individually (or batch) calibrated in the factory but I'm pretty sure there isn't a way for the end user to adjust the display temperature. I know it's not a satisfactory answer but I think it is one of those things you may have to learn to work around. I find the HNCS colour process in these Hasselblad cameras to be excellent and I tend to trust it to get it (mostly) right but I do get that, as an architectural photographer, you probably want a bit more reassurance that things look right at the point of taking the photograph. Perhaps you might be able to hook up your 100C with an iPad for a better preview?
