Transforms V cameras
the Hasselblad cFV turns virtually all V cameras into a high per-
formance digital cameras in a very user friendly way. You attach
the digital back and start shooting. a charged battery and a
cF-card must be in place, but no external cables are required.
the cFV will also enable the use of F/FE lenses on a 200
system camera, provided that the camera is slightly modified.
the modification disables the electronic functions (isO/con-
trast) with E-type magazines, after which isO is simply selected
on the camera body instead.
Fully supported models are: 202 Fa, 203 FE, 205 tcc and 205
Fcc. Other 200 and 2000 series models can be used with c
type lenses only.
Hasselblad Natural Color Solution
color management solutions have in the past imposed
limitations on professional digital photographers, because of the
forced choice of a specific color profile to suit the job: capturing
various skin tones, metals, fabrics, flowers etc. to combat this,
Hasselblad has developed a new, powerful color profile to be
used with its Phocus imaging software. Working with the new
Hasselblad Rgb color profile enables you to produce outstand-
ing, reliable out-of-the-box colors, with skin tones, special prod-
uct gradations, and other difficult colors reproduced effectively.
to implement our new unique colors we have developed
a new Hasselblad raw file format called 3F RaW (3FR).
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.
the 3FR file defines the colors in the Hasselblad Rgb color space
with its out-of-the-box quality, and used in Phocus it removes
both the need for experimenting with different color profiles to
get optimal colors and the need for selective color corrections.
For maximum flexibility the 3FR files can be opened directly in
Adobe Photoshop (CS4 or later) or in Aperture on Mac OS-X.
Files can also be converted directly into adobe’s raw image
format DNG (‘Digital NeGative’). Hasselblad image files carry a
full set of metadata, including capture conditions, keywords and
copyright, facilitating work with image asset management solu-
tions.
V lens DAC correction
With the introduction of the cFV digital back, we include dac
lens correction for most of the V system lenses from carl Zeiss.
dac will completely correct for distortion, lateral chromatic aber-
ration and vignetting in exactly the same way as is currently per-
formed with the H system lenses.
For H camera owners full access to V lens dac correction is also
available when using the cF lens adapter.
