Hasselblad H3D DSLR - Full frame
The Hasselblad H3D's full frame concept offers unique control of image compo- sition and the large format light channel provided by the H3D enables the use of the largest image sensors currently available - 48x36 mm - more than twice the size of even the largest 35 mm camera sensors. These sensors hold more and large pixels, ensuring ultra sharp images without gradation break-ups in even the finest lit surfaces. The Hasselblad H3D is available in two versions, one containing a 22 Megapixel sensor and the other a 39 Megapixel sensor.
Hasselblad H3D full frame digital SLR - Instant Approval Architecture
The H3D camera also features Hasselblad's Instant Approval Architecture (IAA), an enhanced set of feedback tools designed to drastically simplify the image selection process so you can concentrate on your shoot. The Hasselblad is fully integrated with the Hasselblad IAA, bringing automated image classification into your digital workflow from the split second of capture.
H3D digital SLR camera - Viewfinder
One of the most popular features of the V System was the flexibility to choose between eye-level and waist-level viewfinders. Hasselblad has now brought this useful feature into the H system as well, with the launch of an inter-changeable, waist-level viewfinder for the H system cameras. This viewfinder enables photographers to maintain eye contact with the model, a key advantage in portrait photography. With the Hasselblad H3D you get a choice of viewfinders - eye- or waist-level - an important flexibility for the professional photographer.

Hasselblad H3D DSLR camera - Ultra-focus and digital APO correction
In the Hasselblad H3D, information about the lens and exact capture conditions are fed to the digital camera engine, enabling precise fine-tuning of the auto-focus mechanism, taking into account the design of the lens and the optical specification of the sensor. The new feature brings a new level of sharpness and resolution to the entire HC lens program. In addition, Hasselblad's patented digital APO chromatic correction feature enables you to get even more out of every lens. When using a complete Hasselblad system, this feature allows the mapping of each Hasselblad lens and the capture of advanced data, which are then used to perform an automated correction for color aberration and distortion on every shot, ensuring that every digital capture is automatically optimized to provide the finest detail that a given lens can produce.
