User reviews

Not bad

I am a H-series user
It is a good app just for preview images instantly.
But the quality of preview is very low.

Cannot be more instable...

Phocus app for iMac crashes all the time, Hasselblad not only don’t know why but don’t do anything about it.
This app is bad as well and I generally not recommend using Phocus app nor Phocus for iMac!!!
Avoid Hasselblad as a whole! I have used Hasselblad film and now digital for the last 15-20y and the brand isn’t good anymore, quality went down and price went up.

The app need to be updated!!

Phocus Mobile 2 doesn’t support mobile phone! Only iPad, you should call it Phocus iPad!

This app is too old. For a camera sells 10000 USD, at least provide some nice support of the apps.

This App doesn’t show Live Photo’s via your camera lens, you don’t even know where your camera is focusing on. Neither showing the position if you want to take selfie.

Please update this one ASAP!!

Last version was 2 years ago!!

Still Doesn’t Work With Mk II

I love the X1D, and I have both models, but the fact that this software hasn’t been updated in two years, let alone for the Mk II, earns it zero stars as far as I am concerned.

Does not work with X1D II

From everything I have read online, this app should be compatible with the new X1D2 50C. But beware...... it just does not work. Will not recognize the camera. And yes, i have connectivity set to IOS on the camera. Ashame.
