Which should you buy?

Commercial, Studio & Fine Art Professionals — Hasselblad X2D 100C (2022): 100MP, IBIS, and phase-detect AF in the smallest medium-format mirrorless — the X2D 100C sets the benchmark for image quality.

Adventure, Underwater & Outdoor Use — OM System TG-7 (2023): Waterproof to 15m, freezeproof and shockproof — the TG-7 is the most capable rugged compact for adventure and outdoor use.
