Hasselblad appoints a new CEO, again

By PR admin | Published: January 27, 2017


Another shake-up at Hasselblad after the rumors that the company was acquired by DJI - Paul Bram was appointed as a new interim CEO, which means that this was not really a planned move and a new permanent CEO is yet to be announced.

Fuji GFX digital rangefinder is a possibility (plus a Leica M10/Fuji GFX poll)

By PR admin | Published: January 26, 2017


In a recent interview with dpreview, Fuji representative mentioned that a Fuji GFX based digital rangefinder is a possibility (see the already discontinued Fuji GF670 film medium format rangefinder):

Could these same benefits be applied to medium format, we asked. ‘Of course it could be an idea for medium format,’ says Oishi: ‘it depends on demand and the market.

Maybe an ‘R’ could be a rangefinder: we’re always considering other options and possibilities.’

‘If mirrorless interchangeable lens camera is too big as a rangefinder style, a fixed lens camera could be smaller, like the GF670.’

Both the new Leica M10 and the Fuji GFX cameras that were announced last week were priced the same ($6,595 for the Leica M10 and $6,499 for the Fuji GFX 50S). If you were given the choice to get one of those cameras for free, which one would you choose? Here is a poll:
