Canon R5 C vs Hasselblad X1D Overview

Below is a extended assessment of the Canon R5 C versus Hasselblad X1D, both Pro Mirrorless cameras by rivals Canon and Hasselblad. The image resolution of the R5 C (45MP) and the X1D (51MP) is fairly close but the R5 C (Full frame) and X1D (Medium format) enjoy totally different sensor size.

The R5 C was brought out 5 years later than the X1D and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both the cameras offer different body type with the Canon R5 C being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Hasselblad X1D being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go in to a full comparison, below is a short synopsis of how the R5 C scores versus the X1D with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Canon R5 C vs Hasselblad X1D Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
In many cases, its tough to envision the gap in sensor measurements purely by looking through specs. The visual underneath will help offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the R5 C and X1D.
As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The R5 C because of its smaller sensor will make getting shallow depth of field trickier and the Hasselblad X1D will result in extra detail having its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos a little more aggressively. The fresher R5 C will have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
