Haters said: Jason, you should try digital cameras, cause film so expensive
Jason: time for digital Hasselblad...

The Hasselblad X2d would make a great film scanner!

Forgive him father for he has sinned 🙏

Tired: "Jason went digital."
Wired: "Where's the slam-an-SD shot, Jason?!"

[tonytfuntek]

Even Bob Dylan went electric. Great shots.

uh ohhhh my boy jason falling in love with digital

“At this point I was wondering if I was somehow getting lucky with these shots, or if it was somehow the camera” is a fantastic point. Film or digital, all that matters is that it gets you out shooting. Some equipment can inspire, some can bore. I know personally I took more awesome photos in the first 6 months of switching to Fuji than I took over the previous 4 years of not taking out my canon because it didn’t inspire. Like always Jason 11/10 goodest photos I guess.

So is it gonna be "noisydays" for this video? :v

[PINKGOFFICIAL]

One of best commercial statement videos of Hasselblads x2d. Simply because we feel it from your non digital background, it feels super honest and not as bias as all the other cooperations. We see that you actually struggle with the digital feel. Very well done

Thanks for all your work. The sound effects to go with the shots and editing are great. Your videos always make me laugh

[shootfromthehip]

A lot of gear focused YouTube content feels so forced, often with pretty mediocre photos that fail to display much creativity or the gear's capabilities. What I always appreciate is that Jason sticks to his process, the camera kind of feels secondary for the most part, the ability to adapt to different tools shouldn't be underestimated. 

Oh yeah and some of those shots were above average, you might have a future in this biz!

I agree with your sentiments on this camera. After using around 20 different cameras over the last 40 years, I finally purchased an X2D, and after 6 months, I love it more than ever. Paired with the XCD 35-75 and a brace of R-Mount Leica and M-Mount Voigtlander lenses, this kit might keep me satisfied for the next 10+ years! Its colour and resolving power are next level. Love the shack+windy track shot at 12:05 and the clever composition at 16:08! Love the LS400, too. Thanks for sparing us the splanter-paint image.

Glad you had an amazing trip while delivering the biggest betrayal to film photography in history.

Clicked on this video faster than I waste good film on bad photos

[extraordinary_ordinary]

In my personal (albeit uneducated) opinion, I think these are some of the best shots you've gotten. Regardless of film or digital, the compositions are on point.

[mercytechs]

The collection of photos in this one is insane

[noenken]

12:46 Appriciate the nails matching the shutter button.
The X2D is a fantastic photo camera. Has everything you need and nothing more.
Btw: The relatively tiny 28mm makes it a very compact system. I don't like how enormous the 25mm is, personally.

I can’t help but rewatch this more times than is probably healthy. Those coastal shots keep pulling me back in. Gorgeous work, man!

[jabraase]

This one's an instant classic, brother. Enjoy watching this years from now.
