See my Hasselblad X1D wish list.

This page in my review of the Hasselblad X1D assesses the white balance and tint required for raw processing in Adobe Camera Raw for achieving a neutral grayscale, and discusses the relative accuracy of the results.

Hasselblad X1D: RAW 3FR Conversion in Adobe Camera Raw: Overcast Rainy Day Lighting

Includes conversions with the available Camera Standard and Embedded profiles as well as what I found doing a custom profile with the Datacolor SpyderCHECKR.

Rainy overcast day (slight drizzle, thus the spots on the target). Maximal ETTR exposure, hence the 0.85 stop pull as seen in the ACR settings. We haven’t had a sunny day in quite a while, so I don’t have anything yet for sunlight.

Also: The Hasselblad X1D has the best long exposure mode and performance I”ve ever experienced. Kudos to Hasselblad!
