[. . . ] H3d offers the photographer the freedom to work with film to allow shooting under extreme conditions, and Hasselblad's Natural Color Solution delivers out-of-the-box image quality only achievable in a true digital camera system. the H3d camera is currently available with two different sensor models, offering image capture with a resolution of either 22 or 39 Mpixel. Ultra-Focus and digital aPO Correction renews lens program information about the lens and exact capture conditions is fed to the camera processor for ultra-fine-tuning of the auto-focus mechanism, taking into account the design specifications of the lens and the optical specifications of the sensor. in this way the full HC lens program is enhanced to perform at a new level of sharpness and resolution. "digital aPO Correction" (daC), is an aPO-chromatic correction of the images based on a combination of the various paramaters concerning each specific lens for each specific shot, ensuring that each image represents the best that your equipment can produce. [. . . ] We are confident that the image quality you achieve as a result of the daC functionality will make you ­ and your customers ­ look twice. Based upon these techniques we are now expanding our lens program with a specially designed 28mm lens that has been developed for the H3d. the design has been optimized for the actual 36x48mm area of the sensor to make it more compact and work in conjunction with daC as an integral part to perfect the images from this extraordinary lens. the achievement is clear; daC increases the resolution of the image, and with a perfect pixel definition, the basis for the image rendering is optimized. the advantages of the central lens shutters of HC/HCd lenses adds flexibility by allowing flash to be employed at shutter speeds up to 1/800s. thanks to the large format, the depth of field range is considerably shallower making it much easier to create a perfect interplay between sharpness and blur. H System cameras and lenses are designed and built for durability and high quality performance, both for rough location work and for the demands of a studio photographer, something you notice the moment you hold the camera. UK ­ v1 www. hasselblad. com digital CaMERaS large format digital capture in digital photography, the advantages of large format cameras become particularly obvious. the 6 x 4. 5 cm window allows the Hasselblad H3d to use the largest image sensors currently available in digital photography ­ more than twice the size of a 35mm camera sensor. the sensor therefore holds more and larger pixels, which secure a high-end image quality in terms of moiré free color rendering without gradation break-ups in even the finest lit surfaces. dNg workflow the 3FR files can be converted into adobe's raw image format dNg (`digital Negative'), bringing this new technology standard to the professional photographer for the first time. in order to utilize daC and optimize the colors of the dNg file format, conversion from 3FR must take place through FlexColor. the Hasselblad H3d offers a choice of storage devices: portable CF cards, the flexible imagebank or a computer hard drive. With these three operating and storage options, you are able to select a mode to suit the nature of the work in hand, whether in the studio or on location. www. hasselblad. com digital CaMERaS "instant" user interface the Hasselblad H3d is operated via an easy-to-use user interface, utilizing a series of "instant" one-button-click operations including instant capture, instant browse, instant approval, instant zoom, and instant image info. Modular design for flexiblity the H3d offers the choice of working with film using a Hasselblad H System film magazine. this option permits photography in extreme temperature environments or when extreme exposure times are demanded. For increased usefulness, the digital capture unit of the H3d can also be detached and used on a view camera by way of an adapter. in this case the unit is controlled by the flash sync signal from the view camera shutter. a clean and dust-free sensor is essential and the modular design of the camera allows for easy access for cleaning, saving you hours of retouching work later. FlexColor workflow for the professional photographer FlexColor offers an image processing workflow with the highest degree of control for the studio photographer. in tethered operation, tools like overlay masking help bring productivity to advanced set composition. the latest FlexColor version allows the photographer to manipulate color temperature and compare image details across multiple images for precise image selection.
