The X1D II 50C was revealed 5 years after the T Type 701 which is quite a serious difference as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before getting straight into a comprehensive comparison, below is a brief summary of how the X1D II 50C scores vs the T Type 701 for portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a preview of the gallery images for Hasselblad X1D II 50C & Leica T Typ 701. The full galleries are provided at Hasselblad X1D II 50C Gallery & Leica T Type 701 Gallery.

If you are going to carry around your camera frequently, you will want to factor in its weight and dimensions.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the X1D II 50C and T Type 701 is 60 and 85 respectively.

Quite often, it is very hard to see the difference between sensor sizes only by reading through technical specs. The pic here should give you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the X1D II 50C and T Type 701.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The X1D II 50C with its bigger sensor will make getting shallower DOF less difficult and the Hasselblad X1D II 50C will give you extra detail because of its extra 35 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs far more aggressively. The younger X1D II 50C will have an advantage in sensor innovation.
