Hasselblad launches new camera

Hasselblad has launched a new camera, the Stellar. Very similar to the RX100 in build and design, the camera features a 20 MP 1-inch sensor, and a 28-100mm equivalent lens, the same as the RX100. However, the Stellar also adds a unique hand-grip that can be made from a choice of exotic materials, and is likely to feature a higher price tag. This is the second camera produced by Hasselblad’s collaboration with Sony, after the announcement of the Lunar at Photokina 2012. Hasselblad was bought out by private equity group Ventizz in 2011, which is attempting to gain increased value from the legendary brand.
