A friend has the camera and is still on the learning curve. He emailed this, and, since I don't have one myself, could anyone answer me (him)? thanks, all!

What I'd really like to figure out, and maybe it isn't possible, is how, like on a Canon or Nikon, to press the shutter half way to lock in focus and exposure, keep holding it down, compose the image, then press the shutter the rest of the way.

Set the camera to 'Autofocus single' mode; it's addressed on page 54 of the user manual (e.g. found here: https://cdn.hasselblad.com/manuals/X2D-100C-User-Manual/User_Manual/X2D_100C_User_Manual_v1_EN.pdf)
