New Hasselblad camera and zoom lens looks killer – but you'll need deep pockets

The camera is also a great pick for anyone who hates carrying around lots of storage. The model comes a whopping 1TB of internal storage, meaning you might never need to look at an SD card ever again. Of course, if you do need more, a CFexpress Type B slot is included for that purpose.
Alongside the camera comes the brand's first ever zoom lens. That features a 35-100mm – equivalent to 28-76mm on full-frame – with a variable aperture from f/2.8 to f/4.
That lens also carries the 'E' suffix, which stands for 'exclusive' and suggests that this lens enjoys top-tier audio performance from the brand. The result should be edge-to-edge image quality similar to that seen in the brand's range of prime lenses.
Now of course, all of that goodness doesn't come cheap. But you're still probably not quite ready for this, so I'd recommend taking a seat before reading on.
The body is priced at €7,200 / US$7,399 (approx. £6,200 / AU$12,900) while the lens costs €4,800 / US$4,599 (approx. £4,150 / AU$8,600). That's certainly not a cheap rig, and while there are other cameras in a similar price point, it's certainly not going to be an impulse purchase for many of us.
Still, if you're seeking out absolutely exquisite image quality complete with more resolution than you could shake a stick at, this is a top pick.
