I Faked an XPan on Any Digital Camera (And it Works)

I sold my Hasselblad XPan but I miss the way it felt so I figured out how to recreate the XPan panoramic experience on any digital camera - here’s the exact method. In this video, I’ll show you how to shoot XPan-style panoramic photos with any digital camera - whether you use Nikon, Sony, Canon, Fujifilm, or Lumix. The Hasselblad XPan is famous for its unique panoramic aspect ratio and cinematic landscape photography look. But since original XPan cameras and lenses are rare and expensive, I wanted to recreate that same panoramic shooting experience using a simple DIY fix. This isn’t just about cropping to a panoramic aspect ratio in Lightroom or Photoshop. It’s about changing how you see and frame a scene — just like shooting on my original XPan. If you love cinematic landscape photography, wide aspect ratios, long exposure seascapes, or fine art panoramic images, this technique might completely change how you compose your shots.
