    I never got to touch the X2D because of COVID, so it was actually fun to play with the Hasselblad camera again, and I have to say I actually really enjoyed the Hasselblad 907X CFV 100C here.

    If the 907X 100C fits the style of shooting you do, and you have the money, this is the finest digital camera I have shot with in a very long time—possibly ever.

  • Tom's Guide

    The Hasselblad 907X + CFV 100C contains a huge 100MP sensor and delivers phenomenal stills. It lacks the modern frills of its sibling, the XCD 100C, but is designed with a niche audience in mind.

    The size and weight benefits of the 907X & CFV 100C are among the most appealing traits of this camera system and are the main reasons I enjoyed shooting with it so much.

    [...] I did really enjoy my time with this camera, and I love what Hasselblad's doing, just bringing a unique system to the market that's obviously incredibly capable from a technical standpoint, but also focuses heavily on the user experience.
