UPLOAD 4K Does medium format really out preform 35mm? Hasselblad H1XD II, Canon EOS R5, Nikon D850 -RAW files

We’ve all heard that medium format is better than 35mm, but is it really true? The purpose of this review was to test the cameras’ performance when resolving subtle color and detail sharpness while shooting a still life bouquet pf flowers. It’s not scientific but more practical.

Yes I know f5.6-f8 would have resulted in sharper results, but that may not have provided the depth of field needed for the overall subject.

This evaluation used CaptureOne and Phocus and the results should be seen in that context.
