In what ways can the Hasselblad H3D help make your photography business be more successful?

I understand that the real deal is the brain behind the viewfinder, however, more than just rich hobbyists are buying H3D cameras I would guess. They must be attractive to professional photographers as well. Why?


Quite simply because 'blads are great quality cameras.
They cannot help your business be more successful - that is purely down to the individual or team running the business.

The Hasselblad H3D is the world&#39;s first 48mm full-frame, large-sensor, medium-format DSLR camera system. The H3D has been developed around a ...

Eye opener. I saw a print made from a Hasselblad H3D that appeared sharper than a contact print from 8x10&quot; neg?

How was that accomplished? I saw the print at a art gallery and it changed my thinking about pigment inks and digital photography. Impressive.


High-end medium format backs are approaching the point where they compete resolution-wise with film.

What you're seeing is the photographer and/or the lens making up for a small handicap in resolution.

If hardware is irrelevant to good photography why do people use the Hasselblad H3D?



My guess is that the "irrelevant" comment is over stated.

The user needs both the skills AND the tools. The better the tools, the easier it is for the craftsman to do their job in general, but as you can guess a $25,000 set of Snap-On tools will not make your neighbor a NASCAR head mechanic.

What is the biography and work day like for a typical Hasselblad H3D photographer?



Rise early, work late, have a good lab relationship or Epson printer (used to be drum scanners. . . ) and be organized. I suggest regular reading of PDN if you're serious. There is no typical photography so there is no typical Hasselblad H3D day. Every day is different.

  • In studio test: Hasselblad H3D-31 with HTS 1.5 v.s Canon 1Ds Mark ...

    Unfortunately, we did not have a macro lens for Hasselblad and used  non-macro 80mm f 2.8 H lens. I am not going to write a technical review, as there are so many on the web, as I did  not have enough time to test every aspect of the camera. Instead, I am going to tell what I liked and what I did not about this Hasselblad, compared to my Canon 1Ds Mark III.

    Do Not like:

    The camera is big and slow. Slow- meaning it is slower that my Canon 1Ds Mark III. Slower focus, slower operations Only one focusing point (center),  which sometime forces you to use manual focus for a product shots. Not a big deal though.

    Do Like:

    Bright, big viewfinder. Very good for low light work. Very good and precise matte focusing screen. Good use of “live view” feature (which I’ve never used with my Canon), as it let me precisely adjust focus by  looking at the monitor. Focusing can be controlled  from a computer, wile...
