[. . . ] Hasselblad's Natural Color Solution delivers out-of-the-box image quality only achievable in a true digital camera system. hasselblad. com/products/virtual-demo-overview/hasselbladimage-quality. aspx the H3dii-31 camera system is made for the professional photographer who demands both flexibility and ease-of-use, with features such as: · thefreedomtochoosebetweeneye-andwaist-levelview-finders · thechoiceofcombiningpoint-and­shootandtilt/shifttodevelop photographic expression · theabilitytocombineworkingtetheredandun-tetheredtogetthe most of your camera system both on location and in the studio · the option of processing your images in Hasselblad's Phocus imaging toolbox, or working with your raw images directly in apple's aperture. the H3dii camera system is available with three different sensor models, offering image capture with a sensor resolution of 31Mpixel, 39Mpixel or 50Mpixel. the H3dii-31 features Kodak's 31 Mpixel sensor, measuring 33×44mm, enhanced with micro-lenses to boost its basic iSO-rating by one full stop to a maximum of iSO1600. as with its fellow H3dii models, the H3dii-31 makes use of a new high speed capture architecture capturing at the rate of 1. 2 seconds per capture, working either mobile or tethered to a computer. [. . . ] the combination of these features makes the H3dii-31 the natural choice for the professional photographer wanting to step up to medium format photography from 35mm dSlR. www. hasselblad. com digital CaMERaS Medium Format digital capture advantage in digital photography, the advantages of large format cameras have become even more obvious. the 6×4. 5 cm window allows the H3dii-31 to use one of the largest image sensors currently available in digital Photography. Consequentlythesensorholdsmoreandlargerpixels, which deliver the highest possible image quality in terms of moiréfree color-rendering without gradation break-ups in even the finest lit surfaces. a choice of large and bright viewfinders One of the important traditional advantages of the medium format is the extra-large and bright viewfinder image, enabling extremely precise compositions and easy operation in dim lighting. Hasselblad has added an interchangeable waist-level viewfinder, the HVM, for the entire range of H system cameras. the bright and large viewfinder image is ideal for creative composing and the photographer is able to shoot in the fashion that suits them most; maintaining eye contact with the model, or gaining impact by shooting from a point lower than eye-level, for example. an impressive lens line the highly renowned HC/HCd lens line includes 10 auto-Focus lenses all with central shutters. Range is from 28mm to 300mm, 50-110mm zoom, 35-90mm zoom and 1. 7X converter. the HtS tilt/shift adapter delivers an easy to use, portable tilt/shift solution for 5 HC/HCd lenses ranging from 28mm to 100mm. the CF adapter opens interfacing to the classic CF-lenses of the Hasselblad V-camera, with full use of their central shutters. Overall, the result is flexibility allowing flash to be employed at shutter speeds up to 1/800s. the central shutter also improves image quality by reducing camera vibration. and thanks to the large format of the H3dii-31 camera, there is a considerably shallower depth of field range, making it much easier to utilize selective focus to creative effect. f/3. 5 f/8 1. 0 MtF before and after daC the red dotted lines indicate the improvement made by the daC chromatic aberration correction. 1. 0 0. 8 0. 8 0. 6 0. 6 0. 4 0. 4 Example: HC 35mm 0. 2 0. 2 0 0 10 20 30 0 0 10 20 30 www. hasselblad. com digital CaMERaS Phocussoftwarefortheprofessional Phocus provides an advanced software toolbox that has been especially designed to achieve optimum workflow and absolute image perfection from Hasselblad raw image files.

Modes of operation and storage the H3dii-31 offers a choice of storage devices: CF cards or a computer hard drive. With these two 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. Options for working with tilt/shift two basic options are available for tilt/shift work with H3dii-31. a simple, portable adapter solution and the classic view camera solution. the HtS 1. 5 tilt/shift adapter for H3dii-31 allows for portable tilt/shift with the HC/HCd lense range from 28mm to 100mm. to further increase usability, the H3dii-31 has been designed to allow the digital capture unit to be detached and used on a view camera by way of an adapter. instant approval architecture Building on the success of its audio Exposure Feedback technology, Hasselblad has created Instant Approval Architecture (IAA), an enhanced set of feedback tools, designed to enable the photographer to focus on the shoot rather than the selection process. iaa triggers audible and visual signals for each image captured, notifying the photographer immediately of its classification status. the information is recorded both in the file and in the file name, providing a quick and easy way to classify and select images, in the field or back at the studio. iaa is a Hasselblad trademark and Hasselblad has a patent pending on the invention. Extra large 3" display on the H3dii-31 provide a realistic, high quality and perfect contrast image view, even in bright sunlight.
