NEW Hasselblad X2D II - Shooting VERY LONG Night Exposures

In this episode I shoot very long exposures in the Swiss mountains, in one shot more than 10 minutes, with my new Hasselblad X2D II and the XCD 20-35E lens. I show sample images, indicate the super high dynamic range of the Hasselblad X2D II sensor, provide tips & tricks for focusing at night and also address the naturally occurring hot pixel problem with a firm promise to provide a follow-up video on how to deal with hot pixels in a very convenient way plus some background information.

Correction: at 14:25 I accidentally said "... more than 10sec exposure ..." but wanted to say of course "... more than 10mins exposure ..." as said right before and as shown in the metadata, apologies.
