Hasselblad H4D-200MS Medium Format Digital SLR Camera Features & Technical Specs

THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOU WANT TO GET EXTREMELY CLOSE. TIMES WHEN YOU WANT TO GET EXTREMELY LARGE. TIMES WHEN YOU WANT THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST DETAIL POSSIBLE. TIMES WHEN EVEN THE LARGEST STANDARD RESOLUTIONS DO NOT SUFFICE. AND THAT’S WHERE THE HASSELBLAD H4D-200MS COMES IN.

Three cameras in one

The H4D-200MS includes three capture modes:

• normal single-shot capture delivering 50Mpix resolution images

of live subjects

• multi-shot capture (4 shots) delivering 50Mpix high detail images

of still subjects outperforming the single-shot capture of cameras

with higher resolution

• multi-shot capture (6 shots) delivering 200Mpix ultra high detail

of still subjects delivering outstanding representation of the outmost

level of fine detail

Non-compromising details and colors

The H4D-200MS camera uses a 50Mpix sensor mounted onto the

Hasselblad patented symmetrical multi-shot frame, which accurately

positions the sensor with a sub-micron accuracy using piezo-

Hasselblad has raised the bar yet again concerning the capture

of super high-quality images. Building on the achievements and

success of the H4D-50MS, a new clever development of the

multi-shot capture technology takes still-life studio photography

to mind blowing 200Mpix resolution. From fine cars to miniature

artworks and from delicate fabrics to diamonds – or quite simply

where only the best reproduction is acceptable – the 200Mpix

multi-shot image offers true color and moire free capture, providing

an astonishing level of detail.

electrical actuators. Capturing 6 shots with the sensor positioned

accurately at a sequence of quadrants of the pixel, color information

from the Bayer-patterned pixels is used to create a 200Mpix

capture.

Ultra-Focus and Digital Auto Correction for image perfection

The H4D-200MS employs its Ultra-Focus engine to realize the full

potential of the H system lens program, bringing a new level of

sharpness and resolution. The Digital Lens Correction (DA C) automatically

removes any chromatic aberration, distortion and vignetting

when images are processed using Phocus. The design of the

HCD 28mm and 35-90mm lenses have been optimized for the

actual 36.7 x 49.1mm area of the sensor to make it more compact

and to work in conjunction with DA C.
