Many of us were struggling with the same question: is the new Hasselblad X1D, the first mirrorless medium format camera on the world, a product of the cooperation with Fujifilm (just like the Hasselblad H series)?

The answer is: NO!

As mingthein noticed here:

CEO Perry Oosting said categorically it is a 100% unique to Hasselblad body and lenses (explicitly stated: not a rebranded Sony or Fuji, so we’ll not see a cheaper variant from one of those companies in future

But don’t worry. Fujifilm’s Medium Format Mirrorless will come, and I have the feeling that it will be an amazing answer to the Hasselblad X1D.

LEAKED :: See the First Image Taken with Fujifilm X-T2!

that’s what I see when I open the image with ApolloOne

Fujifilm X-T2 Image Leaked

I’ve tried to inform you as good as I can about the upcoming Fujiflm X-T2. And thanks to our sources, I think we did a quite good job. But something was missing: the first image taken with Fujifilm X-T2 leaked on the internet… and every great rumor-marathon just needs at least one :-)

Luckily I have very attentive readers, and one of them just send me a link to this dailymail article (thanks Marc SolarSky). Marc took a look at the EXIF data of the image showing a father that fans his son during a hot L.A. Dodger game (see the image and EXIF), and he noticed that it was taken with the Fujfiilm X-T2.

The image has been taken by Richard Vogel, Photo Editor for the Associated Press. Richard Vogel is also on Instagram. I wouldn’t be surprised if some images there are taken with the Fujifilm X-T2, too :-).

Off Brand :: Images of Hasselblad’s New Medium Format Mirrorless Camera (price $9000)

Medium Format Mirrorless Camera

Hasselblad X1D

So here it is, the first Medium Format Mirrorless Camera… and it comes from Hasselblad. The camera is called X1D and will cost a cool 9000 dollar.

The new lenses launched along with the camera are the XCD 45mmF3.5 lens ($2,295) and XCD 90mmF3.2 ($2,695).

Also leaked: an X1D image gallery (check out google.cache here).

As long time FujiRumors followers know since 13 months now, Fujifilm has its own Medium Format Mirrorless Camera in the works. It will be very interesting to see how much Fuji’s Medium Format Mirrorless offer will cost.

Some of you speculated that Hasselblad and Fujifilm are likely working on the same camera (they already cooperate with the Hasselblad H system, where Fujifilm manufactures the lenses). For now I can’t confirm this speculation.
