In #1 a less distracting background and better lighting on the tree would have produced a better photo. These things aside, you have yourself an interesting subject.

I hope it's a bonsai you're talking about and not a Hasselblad .

I agree. This was from a series of test images done on the fly with or Hasselblad X2D 100c - just out of the box [last Friday]. However, I put the camera through the paces this past Sunday. Was asked by head basketball coach LeVelle Moton - NCCU in Durham, NC - to shoot an annual charity event he sponsors that day. I shoot in native [RAW] format - the size of each image produced with our Hasselblad X2D was just over 200mb [I shot over 150 images with the X2D - 140 images were step and repeat portraits like the image posted of Coach Moton and his family. My wife shot over 300 images with our Sony a9 of the event]. This process also helped define how I will handle work flows with these even enormous files produced with the X2D.

Have seen some folks in reviews claim this camera is 'slow.' Not so, compared to my experience shooting with the X1D II for a couple years - Comparatively this X2D is blazing fast during image composition. The phase detect autofocus system with 5-axis stabilization in my X2D is a huge improvement over the contrast detect autofocus [and no stabilization] in my X1D II [but still produced stunning images as well]. The X2D is nowhere near what you'll find in my Full-Frame Sony A9 - But I am impressed with its speed.
