See for yourself by checking out the image quality at: http://www. hasselblad. com/ products/virtual-demo-overview/hasselblad-image-quality. aspx BEST MEDIUM FORMAT D-SYSTEM the H3dii-50 camera system has been especially designed to meet the demands of the high-end commercial photographer who demands both flexibility and ultimate image quality. the H3dii-50 includes: · highest image resolution from 50Mpixel sensor · the freedom to choose between eye-level and waist-level viewfinders · the choice of combining point-and­shoot and tilt/shift to solve creative commercial challenges · the ability to combine working tethered and un-tethered to get the 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 extended metadata included in all Phocus images provides for accurate and detailed cataloguing and indexing, easy image management, and includes added GPS data functionality in order to allow a range of new functions. Phocus links GPS data directly to Google Earth, for example, making geographic reference a snap and image storage and retrieval much easier. With the HTS 1. 5, all settings are stored as metadata in the image file for full function with daC lens corrections. The Phocus Viewer delivers image viewing quality that matches every detail of what you will see later in Photoshop. In addition, the Phocus Viewer allows you to customize layout and composition to suit your current or desired workflow, providing a wide range of options including full view, compare, browse, horizontal, or vertical view, and so on. You can have multiple folders open simultaneously for side-by-side viewing, comparison, and selection. Ultra-Focus and Digital Auto Correction for image perfection the H3dii-50 camera allows information from the lens and exact capture conditions to be 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/HCD lens program is even further enhanced, even when using the HTS 1. 5 Tilt/Shift Adapter, bringing a new level of sharpness and resolution. digital correction for color aberration and distortion is also added. "Digital Auto Correction" (DAC), is an APOchromatic correction of the images based on a combination of the various parameters concerning each specific lens for each specific shot, ensuring that each image represents the best that your equipment can produce. Based upon these techniques, Hasselblad has been able to expand our lens program with a 28mm lens that has been especially developed for the H3dii product family. the design of this lens has been optimized for the actual 36x48mm area of the sensor to make it more compact and to work in conjunction with DAC. This is a critical part of the technology behind capturing perfect images with this extraordinary lens. the result is clear: daC increases image resolution and delivers perfect pixels, thereby providing an ideal basis for optimal image rendering. Hasselblad's unique natural colors Hasselblad's Natural Color Solution (HNCS) enables you to produce outstanding and reliable out-of-the-box colors, with skin tones, specific product colors and other difficult tones reproduced easily and effectively. In order to incorporate our new unique HNCS and DAC-features we have developed a custom Hasselblad raw file format called 3F RAW (3FR). This file format includes lossless image compression, which reduces the required storage space by 33%. 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.
