Hasselblad X2D II 100C review

18 Sep 2026 Gordon Laing

The Hasselblad X2D II 100C has a 100 Megapixel medium format sensor, 1TB of built-in storage, IBIS, a refreshingly different UI and a cunning approach to HDR and displays that’s way ahead of rivals. See the future in my review!

Fujifilm GFX100RF review

10 Apr 2025 Gordon Laing

The Fujifilm GFX100RF is a fixed lens rangefinder-styled camera with a 102 Megapixel medium format sensor. It essentially packs the quality of the GFX100S II with a fixed 28mm equiv lens into a body that’s more akin to a slightly chunkier X100. Here's my review!

09 Apr 2025 Gordon Laing

The instax mini 41 is Fujifilm’s latest camera to use their hugely popular instax mini film. It's based on the fully analogue mini 12, but reskinned in a more serious-looking, technical body. Here's my review!
