Thanks for walking us through your process. Amazing stuff!

Great video Mark. Loved all the photos

Another clean informative Video. Thanks again. Keep going.

Excellent video of a fantastic trip into the neon lights of Soho. 😮 Stunning images and a very pleasant presentation by the host. Great stuff 😊

Excellent video! This is a must-watch for anyone interested in street photography

The first image you made with the man in the hat was fantastic. I love it.

Great looking combination and fantastic results

Reminds me of why I love London. Beautiful.

@@oddities-whatnotLondon is a beautiful City, its people that spoil things.

Outstanding camera, the lens is superb,thanks for sharing nice pans bro

Very enjoyable video 👏

I think you used to date my dads cousin and you came to my granny’s birthday in like 2009, I was looking through old fb pictures and I’m pretty sure it was you..what a world

loving that shot at 3:50

Soho looks like a target-rich environment for street photography!

Not sure what you meant about a FF camera struggling @ 3200 iso, I frequently shoot at 6400 iso w/o issues I would love an X2D for that ibis and those rich but not oversaturated colors

impressive camera and reasonably priced if you compare it to other medium format makes.

I am a viewer who enjoys watching videos in Korea. I also use the photographer’s presets, which are great. I'm curious if you take pictures a little darkly. 감사합니다~~!!

Hi Mark. Thanks, you have proven what I have been thinking for a long time - you need a camera and a lens..... not millimeter..... lens 👏👏👏👏🫡 Greeting from Mainz 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

Nice video. I don't own the 25mm but have the older 30mm which is also a great lens - a bit heavy but a solid performer. I don't really understand Hasselblad's lens strategy. Seems like they are making newer lenses that compete with the older XCD lineup and sometimes with the v lenses themselves. I wish they would focus (pun intended) a bit more on the telephoto end of the lineup or the Tele converters, extension rings, Tilt/Shift adapters and other accessories. That said, I love my X2D and the lenses I already have.

What did you shoot the video with? excellent color.

The reduction of noise at night is great. The photos were edited by photoshop/lightroom or not ?

Hello and thank you very much for the helpful lens introduction. Would you help with a question? I use the XCD 21mm for astro and I'm thinking about switching to the 25mm V because of the larger aperture. Does it make sense? Or should the 25mm always be dimmed down a bit, for example to avoid coma? Thanks in advance. Best regards. Matthias

As always super pro , thanks for that. I’ve just ordered the 28mm F4 v lens, can you advice if should I change it to the 25? Considering the size of the 28, it’s a thought… I’ll be glad to get your advice. Thx

Pro here - the 28 is a 'budget' (?) lens from Hass - made akin to the 45 P where the P stands for Portable - often confused for 'pancake' The 45p is a terrible lens but also brilliant - it's convex front element does very weird things to skies for instance - but its budget friendly so theres that The 28mm therefore being f4 whereas the 25 is 2.5 so is slower - if you can afford the 25 it is also obviously wider then the 28 so you can crop nicely - but most importantly it is properly built. In our studio we have 2X2D's and a 907xCFV100c among our big arsenal of cameras - and just to help the 90mm 2.5 for instance when tested came out as the sharpest lens EVER to be tested at 3000 nits - almost double of any other lens - with that said the 25 is heavier - we have the following - 90mm 2.5, 55mm 2.5 and the 38mm 2.5 - we had a 28 on order (stock due in June) but we changed this today for the 25 - Have fun

Hi Mark! For the first photo of a person sitting in a restaurant, why did you set your ISO to 800 and SS to 1/360s? I’m new to photography and trying to understand if we could have lowered the ISO a bit and adjusted the SS to something like 1/200s to bring in the more light? That would have lowered the noise in the image also. Is my understanding correct? Any particular reasons why you chose those settings? Trying to understand your thought process here. I understand your camera can handle the noise really well. But other cameras like mine (Sony a6700) wouldn’t produce as clean image as yours. Thank you

Your understanding is spot on - however there are times when a setup is good for many shots in varied locations and there is not always time to change them from scene to scene

I have the xcd 4/21 for street and also landscape. I'd like a comparison. I can't see myself switch lenses....er .... hmmm GAS attack !

What lens do you prefer? the 25V or the 28P? :)

Street photography is usually photographed manually. X2D is an excellent camera, but not very suitable for the street. If you like to shoot on automatic and autofocus, cameras from Sony will be better. And so, there is nothing better than Leica for street photography. IMHO

Which modern full-frame camera struggles when you are at f/2.5 1/320 / ISO3200? That's quite a lot of light actually :D

3200 iso is peanuts for modern fullframe cameras.

I think it’s an overkill street photography and Hassebland…

This thing is very heavy, your hand must have been falling off after 6 hours.

Digital just feels so boring these days, all the cameras more or less look the same, too clinical

Street portraits. Why not show me why I should visit your country/town? 🤔
