Hasselblad Stellar compact camera: a beautiful, blinged-out Sony RX100

Legendary Swedish camera maker Hasselblad specialises in expensive equipment for professionals, but has recently been making forays into the consumer market, first with the Lunar mirrorless model and now the Stellar compact.

The difference is in the design
Body: 

The Stellar features the same (fantastic) 20.2MP CMOS sensor and Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens as the RX100, as well as the same screen and control setup.

The differences, it seems, come chiefly from the design. The Sony model’s black finish has been replaced with “champagne”-tinged aluminium, while the new grip is made from carbon fibre or one of six woods including wenge and padouk.

Price and availability
Body: 

Oh, and the price. The Stellar will be priced at €1,480 (around £1,280) when it goes on sale later this month, while the RX100 is available now for about £430. You can also now buy an updated RX100 II model, which adds Wi-Fi, NFC and other extra features to the mix and costs £650. But we suspect the Hasselblad Stellar is a camera you buy with the heart, not the head.
