Hasselblad's new medium format camera is a tiny, beautiful nod to history

While mirrorless cameras accelerate into the future, medium format models are hearkening unto the past — and Hasselblad is chief among them. Its new digital back fits lenses going back to the '50s, and the tiny 907X camera body is about as lovely a throwback as one can imagine. Most interchangeable-lens systems, like Canon and Nikon's DSLRs and Olympus and Fujifilm's mirrorless cameras, generally have two parts: a lens and a body, in the latter of which is found the image sensor.
