[. . . ] digital CaMERaS With the release of the new H4D-60 ­ the most recent addition to the Hasselblad H System ­ Hasselblad marks the beginning of a new chapter in the history of medium format DSLRs. The H4D-60 features True Focus with APL (Absolute Position Lock) ­ patent pending, making auto-focus substantially easier and more accurate for photography professionals.

[. . . ] Hasselblad has added an interchangeable waist-level viewfinder, the HVM, for the entire range of H system cameras.

Without multi-point auto-focus a typical autofocuscameracanonlycorrectlymeasurefocusonasubjectthatis in the center of the image. When a photographer wants to focus on asubjectoutsidethecenterarea, theyhavefirstlyaimthecamera at the subject to lock focus and then re-compose the image. At close focusing distances especially, this re-composing causes a focuserror, astheplaneofsharpnessfollowsthemovementofthe camera, perpendicular to the axis of the lens. The plane of focus changes when the camera is tilted for composition. Final desired composition with sharpness on the eyes of the doll. Aiming the central focusing point on the eyes will make them sharp but produce the wrong composition. Without True Focus - tilting the camera down to produce the desired composition makes the eyes now fall outside the plane of sharpness. With True Focus - the focus is automatically adjusted to keep the eyes sharp. www. hasselblad. com digital CaMERaS Digital Lens Correction and Ultra-Focus for image perfection the H4d-60 camera allows information from the lens and exact capture conditions to be fed to the camera processor for ultrafine-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 even further enhanced, bringinganewlevelofsharpnessandresolution.
