The X1D II 50C was revealed 6 years later than the M Typ 240 and that is a fairly significant gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going through a full comparison, below is a brief summary of how the X1D II 50C scores versus the M Typ 240 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Hasselblad X1D II 50C and Leica M Typ 240. The full galleries are viewable at Hasselblad X1D II 50C Gallery and Leica M Typ 240 Gallery.

When you are going to lug around your camera often, you will need to consider its weight and measurements. The Hasselblad X1D II 50C offers physical dimensions of 150mm x 98mm x 71mm (5.9" x 3.9" x 2.8") along with a weight of 725 grams (1.60 lbs) whilst the Leica M Typ 240 has proportions of 139mm x 80mm x 42mm (5.5" x 3.1" x 1.7") and a weight of 680 grams (1.50 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you have at that time. Underneath is the front view physical size comparison of the X1D II 50C and the M Typ 240.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability score of the X1D II 50C and M Typ 240 is 60 and 74 respectively.

Typically, it's tough to see the difference in sensor measurements simply by viewing a spec sheet. The graphic here should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the X1D II 50C and M Typ 240.

Clearly, both of these cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The X1D II 50C having a larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF simpler and the Hasselblad X1D II 50C will provide you with more detail because of its extra 27 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics much more aggressively. The fresher X1D II 50C is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
