Hasselblad CF-22 Overview
The Hasselblad CF-22 digital capture with the Hasselblad i-adapter opens camera interface, and the ability to add true-color, multi-shot capture. The CF-22 digital back brings a new level of flexibility to the professional digital photographer
Large format 48x36mm digital capture
Today’s digital photography demands higher resolution, less noise, and improved compositional choice, all of which the CF backs provide. The sensors are more than twice the physical size of today’s 35mm sensors, which means more and larger pixels. This ensures the highest possible image quality and moiré free color rendering without gradation break-ups - in even the most subtly lit surfaces.
Extra resolution for still-life: the 4*Res upgrade option
In a still-life studio environment you can increase the color resolution of your captures by means of a unique multiple-exposure technique controlled by the optional 4*Res module (patent pending). The result is maximum resolution and absolutely moiré free images. The CF can be upgraded to a CF-MS with the 4*Res module at any time. The CF-MS comes with the 4*Res module already built in.
Working with multiple cameras
The CF is easily attached to most professional medium-format SLR cameras and view cameras on the market. This simple compatibility allows you to bring optimal digital capture to your existing cameras and lenses with the convenience of using only one digital back.
Unique Hasselblad Natural Color Solution
In the past, color management solutions have imposed limitations on professional digital photographers. A specific color profile had to be selected to capture normally troublesome subjects such as various skin tones, metals, fabrics, flowers, etc. A single new, powerful color profile – the Hasselblad Natural Color Solution (HNCS) – now works invisibly in the background in conjunction with the FlexColor imaging software to solve this issue. It produces outstanding and reliable out-of-the-box results, reproducing difficult colors easily and effectively.
A custom Hasselblad raw file format - 3F RAW (3FR) – supports HNCS and ensures that images captured on Hasselblad digital products are quickly, effectively and safely stored on the chosen media. This file format includes lossless image compression, which reduces the required storage space by 33%.
DNG workflow
In FlexColor, 3FR files can be converted into Adobe’s raw image format DNG (‘Digital NeGative’). The DNG file format then enables raw, compressed image files to be opened directly in Adobe Photoshop. Hasselblad image files carry a full set of metadata, including capture conditions, keywords and copyright, facilitating workflow with image asset management solutions.
IAA – helping you classify and select images
Instant Approval Architecture (IAA), is an enhanced set of feedback tools, designed to liberate the photographer from the selection process and to concentrate on the shoot.
Audible and visible signals as well as recorded information in the file and in the file name all promote a quick and easy classification in the field or in the lab. Sorting becomes automatic, accessible and very fast, facilitating reviewing the best images for immediate client presentation.
FlexColor workflow for the specialist commercial photographer
FlexColor enables you to create an image processing workflow that gives you the highest degree of control for your studio photography. In tethered operation, tools such as overlay masking help bring productivity to advanced set composition. The latest version of the FlexColor software enables you to manipulate color temperature and compare image details across multiple images for precise image selection. FlexColor uses the 3FR files and runs on both Macintosh and Windows computers. The software is licensed to allow you to provide free copies for all your co-workers and production partners.
