Hasselblad X2D NEW Focus Bracketing Firmware 2

This is my comprehensive tutorial on focus stacking with the new focus bracketing feature of the Hasselblad X2D 100c with Firmware 2.0.0. I explain all new settings you need to know and and provide live demonstrations for different parameters in the menu like “Step Size” and “Sequence”. I also provide lots of background information and tips & tricks and, of course, also do a live shooting to show how to best use this new feature. The software I am using for focus stacking is Helicon Focus and the lens I am using for this video is the Hasselblad XCD 3.5/120 Macro.
