The advanced features and functions found on the H3D-39 and H3D-22 cameras are now combined with faster, higher ISO shooting and a 20% faster capture speed on the new H3D-31, bringing H3D quality and features to the world of hand-held or low-light photography
H3D Quality for the Mobile Professional
The new Hasselblad H3D-31 provides 31 Mpixel capture on a near full-frame 44×33mm sensor and is specially designed to meet the exacting demands of handheld fashion and social photography. The H3D-31 is enhanced with micro-lenses that boost its ISO rating a full stop to a new maximum ISO of 800 and makes full use of the same new high-speed capture architecture featured on the other H3D cameras, guaranteeing the fastest possible operation whether working mobile or tethered to a computer.
Bigger doesn't need to mean slower
The H3D-31 features a capture rate of 1.2 seconds per capture, or 42 captures per minute. This faster capture rate, combined with the 800 ISO capability, makes the H3D-31 ideal for the fast moving, low light situations often found by the professional mobile photographer.
Featuring lossless compressed Hasselblad RAW 3FR capture, the H3D-31 produces large, high resolution files of approximately 40 MB on average (TIFF 8 bit: 95 MB). When storing to the 2 GB CF card, the H3D-31 holds about 50 images, but can also be connected to the Hasselblad ImageBank-II for extended storage capability. And while optimized for mobile and hand-held photography, the H3D-31 is naturally at home in the studio as well, with seamless tethered operation one either Mac or PC.
Fast and Flexible
The H3D-31 enables discerning social, wedding, portrait, and fashion photographers to shoot in most any situation or location. And naturally, the H3D-31 provides all the advanced features of the other H3D cameras, including the freedom to choose between eye-level and waist-level viewfinders, digitally APO corrected lenses, on-the-fly classification of images, and the freedom to work with film to allow shooting under extreme conditions.
