■Excellent compatibility with both Hasselblad and third- party backs

■Information visible on camera LCD

■Tethered and untethered solutions for maximum ﬂexibility

The H system cameras were designed with digital photo- graphy in mind right from the outset so a digital back is not just an extremely useful accessory but is rather an integral part of the initial H system modular concept. This paves the way for seamless integration and consequently increased eﬃciency and improved workﬂow.

HC lenses were also formulated to meet the very high de- mands made by digital sensors, which they do with ease.

H system cameras are suited for both Hasselblad and third- party digital backs, with Hasselblad digital backs producing the optimum in convenience and capabilities.
