Setting a new standard for digital photographic quality
The H3DII-39 represents the 4th generation of the Hasselblad H-system, the ultimate high-end DSLR camera system. The H3DII-39 brings all the advantages of a truly integrated DSLR to the large sensor format, enabling all photographic parameters to be optimized and resulting in an unsurpassed level of image quality. The H3DII-39 provides improved controls and functionality, better sensor cooling, a new and more intuitive user interface, and a bright, 3" display.
Achieving superior image quality with modern digital photography means finding a way to get the most from camera hardware, advanced optics, massive sensors, processing software, and the computing power of today's computers. The H3DII's unprecedented interaction between the various system components combine with increased lens performance and an unprecedented level of image sharpness to outperform any professional digital camera system on the market today, delivering outstanding pixel resolution, better colors, and improved detail rendering.
Even Bigger is Even Better
The large format light channel provided by the H3DII and the H System lenses enables the use of the largest image sensors currently available - 48x36 mm - more than twice the size of even the largest 35mm camera sensors. These sensors hold more and larger pixels, ensuring ultra sharp images without gradation break-ups in even the finest lit surfaces.
The H3DII-39 features Kodak's 39 Mpixel sensor, measuring 36x48mm, twice the physical size of the largest 35mm DSLR sensors. Basic ISO rating is from ISO 50 to ISO 400. Using the H3DII-39 with Hasselblad's Phocus software, the ISO can be bumped further to ISO 800. As with its fellow H3DII models, the H3DII-39 makes use of a new high speed capture architecture capturing full size, compressed 65 Mbyte images at the rate of 2 seconds per capture, working either mobile or tethered to a computer.
Your Vision, Your Choice
The H3DII-39 camera system is made for the high-end commercial photographer with high demands on both ultimate image quality and flexibility. With the H3DII-39 you can choose between eye-level and waist-level viewfinders, the choice of combining point-and-shoot and tilt/shift functions, the ability to work tethered and un-tethered to get the most of your camera system both on location and in the studio, choice of storage medium and image processing system, and much more.
With its unique large and bright viewfinders, its wide range of HC and HCD lenses, matching the best of Hasselblad icon lenses from Carl Zeiss, and its wide choice of accessories the H3DII-39 is an ideal camera choice for a professional photographer. For ultra-high definition still photography a special multi-shot version, the H3DII-39MS, is available primarily for studio or in-house use, and for photo applications where fine art is to be reproduced with maximum detail.
Never Settle for "Good Enough"
The H3DII-39 combines the advanced digital communication and optimization of the best DSLRs with the quality and versatility of the Hasselblad system. The H3DII-39 represents the combination of decades of photographic expertise, a keen understanding of digital photography, and the experience we gained from developing the world's most advanced camera system. Hasselblad has always been motivated by a true passion for photography. Our tradition has always been one of innovation, advance, and unflagging dedication to quality. At Hasselblad, we will never settle for "good enough". So photographers won't have to do so either.
