The CF-39 back provides 39 megapixel digital capture with the i-Adapter, Hasselblad's interchangeable camera interface, and the option for true color multi-shot capture. The CF 39 line matches the functionality of the Hasselblad H2 camera perfectly, giving you access to the H System's range of high performance, central shutter lenses, and extended digital features such as digital APO Correction technology and Instant Approval Architecture.
The CF 39 line uses a 39 megapixel sensor that is more than twice the physical size of today's 35mm sensors. This sensor holds more and larger pixels, which guarantees superior image quality and provides moir?-free color rendering without gradation break-ups in even the finest lit surfaces.
The CF-39 backs capture an extended set of metadata and then perform an automated correction for color aberration effects with every shot. This means that your digital captures are automatically optimized to provide the finest detail that a given lens can resolve. This feature, referred to as "digital APO correction" (DAC), signifies the digital, APO-chromatic correction of the images that takes place.
Working with the Hasselblad RGB color profile enables you to produce outstanding and reliable out-of-the-box colors, with skin tones, special product gradations, and other difficult colors reproduced easily and effectively.
The Hasselblad raw file format, 3F RAW (3FR), helps implement this unique color system. The new 3F RAW file format is designed to ensure that images captured on Hasselblad digital products are quickly, effectively and safely stored on the available media (CF card, Imagebank, etc). The file format reduces the required storage space by 33% and when combined with the architecture of the Hasselblad backs, allows you to capture up to 35 shots per minute.
The 3FR files can be converted directly into Adobe's raw image format DNG ('Digital NeGative'), bringing this new technology standard to the professional photographer for the first time. The DNG file format enables raw, compressed image files to be opened directly in Adobe PhotoShop. This enables photographers to operate quickly and efficiently, reducing the "downtime" taken to process image data and enabling final images to reach the customer more quickly.
The Hasselblad CF39 models can be attached to most of the professional SLR and View Cameras of the market with a simple 4-screw attached plate, enabling you to bring digital capture to your favorite cameras and lenses with one convenient digital back. (See specifications for a list of compatible cameras.)
Limitless digital image capture loses some of its potential if you cannot quickly review and select the best images to present to the client. 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 liberate the photographer to focus on the shoot rather than the selection process.
FlexColor offers an image processing workflow with the highest degree of control for the studio photographer. In tethered operation, tools like live video and overlay masking help bring productivity to advanced set composition. The newest FlexColor version allows you to manipulate color temperature and compare image details across multiple images for precise image selection.
Optimum portability and image storage are critical for the professional photographer. The CF-39 backs enable you to choose between portable CF card storage, the flexible Firewire drive, or tethered operation with extended, special capture controls. With these three operating and storage options, the photographer is able to select a mode to suit the nature of the work at hand, whether in the studio or on location.
