Here's a test I did this morning shooting a white card at F4 with my 29P on X1Dll body. Processed in Phocus 2. I was quite surprised how good the results are.Hi,
I find this 28P very tempting. However I am not sure to understand whether there is a color shift on the X1DII-50c generation? (for the X2D it seems ok).
If anyone with a 28P and an X1DII could share a raw image of a grey sky at f4 for example (in October it might be easy), it would be really helpful!

My examples above with the X1D were just using "Lens Corrections" for the 28P. If I use "Scene Calibration" and shoot a white plexiglass test image, it removes all color and vignetting effects. Of course, that's not ideal, although one could keep a bunch around, one for each f-stop.Here's a test I did this morning shooting a white card at F4 with my 29P on X1Dll body. Processed in Phocus 2.

I should mention my camera is the X1Dii model.It seems that deliveries of this lens are taking place again (just had notification from my dealer in London that he has a 28P available). @dmecham 's corrections tests are quite timely because I had my doubts about this lens on the 50MP sensor but am now reassured that it should be fine on my CFV 50 II if I run it via the lens corrections in the latest Phocus.
Yes, but it is the same generation as the 907x CFV 50 II and should have equivalent files.I should mention my camera is the X1Dii model.
Well not all that long ago, the Hasselblad X System was based around a panoramic 35mm film camera, and the Hasselblad X1 was a film scanner…Hmm. The 907x/CFV has always been listed along with the traditional 500/etc V system. This has always made sense to me since it constitutes another compatible component of the original 6x6 SLR line, providing a digital back for use on all of the older 500/etc bodies as well as a body stub/lens mount to give access to the X series lens line. Where things have gotten a bit confusing, to me, is the adoption of the new "V" lens descriptor within the X series lens offerings. Sheesh, couldn't they have use another letter rather than "V"? They already use "P" on a couple of XCD lenses, supposedly indicating a sub-series of XCD types, why not use something other than V to indicate another sub-series?
But eh? I'm a photographer, not a marketing weenie... I suppose they had their reasons, and it's not *that* complicated to figure out.
