HASSELBLAD H4X W/CR-123 GRIP,NO VF,TRADE
- H4X Body
- CR-123 Battery Grip
- NO lens, prism, or back included
- Trade-in of H1, H2, or H2F Body
- Designed as an upgrade to the current H1, H2 and H2F camera users
- It is based on the H4D camera body and it provides features such as True Focus and it works with all H System lenses. This includes the use of the HCD 28mm and the HCD 35-90mm lenses with film and with 3rd party digital backs
- H4X camera offers the same compatibility with film magazines and digital backs as does the H1 and H2 cameras
- It is NOT compatible with any H2D, H3D or H4D digital capture unit
- The H4X camera body is built upon a H4D camera unit with a DRIVE button instead of the ISO/WB button, which requires tight integration with the digital back
- Advanced exposure control
- The exposure can be controlled either by sophisticated exposure automation or with full manual control
- Programmable
- To make the camera suit specific requirements its design includes 35 functions that can be tailored by the user
- The camera features four buttons than can easily be programmed as shortcuts to the most used functions of the camera
- In this way, you can instantly reach your favourite function just by clicking a button
- Profiles for simplicity and safety
- With the numerous functions that can be set by the user for optimal use, a demand for a fool-proof way of controlling these changes arose - and thus the "Profiles" function was born
- A profile stores all the settings of the camera and can be recalled at one click of a button
- This allows for quick switching to a given mode of photography, it eases set-up time, and perhaps most important, it prevents mistakes from happening
- Built-in fill flash
- The viewfinder (Sold Separately) also features a compact flash. Though primarily intended to be used as fill flash it can also be used as main flash in some cases
- The flash has a metric guide number of 12, but when used as fill flash with -2 stops adjustment it is equal to guide number 24
- Automatic flash
- With the SCA 3902 flash adapter (Sold Separately), any flash compatible with the SCA3002 system defined by Metz can be used
- This means that you can choose from small and compact flashes for extremely portable use as well as larger and more powerful flashes when so required
- Flash metering system
- The built-in flash metering system is designed to be used when working with manually controlled flashes, such as studio flashes
- Interchangeable film magazines (Sold Separately)
- The film magazines for the H4X camera features inserts that can handle both 120 and 220 film
- If you use Bar-coded film (defined by FUJIFILM) the setting of both film type and ISO value is automatic
- Film wind-on and wind-off is also automatic with all films
- Dot-Matrix displays
- The grip LCD and the viewfinder LCD (Sold Separately) is of dot-matrix type. This means that the camera is able to present clear and easy-to-understand information and messages instead of fixed and sometimes not so obvious symbols
- True Focus and Absolute Position Lock
- True Focus helps solve one of the most lingering challenges that faces serious photographers today: true, accurate focusing throughout the image field
- Without multi-point autofocus, a typical autofocus camera can only correctly measure focus on a subject that is in the centre of the image
- When a photographer wants to focus on a subject outside the centre area, they have to lock focus on the subject and then recompose the image
- In short distances especially, this recomposing causes focus error, as the plane of focus sharpness follows the camera's movement, perpendicular to the axis of the lens
- The traditional solution for most DSLR cameras has been to equip the camera with a multi-point AF sensor. These sensors allow the photographer to fix an off-centre focus point on an off-centre subject, which is then focused correctly
- Such multi-point AF solutions are often tedious and inflexible to work with. Due to the physics of an SLR camera, the off-centre focus points that are offered are all clustered relatively close to the centre of the image
- To set focus outside of this centre area, the photographer is still forced to focus first, and then shift the camera to reframe, with the resulting loss of focus as a result
- To overcome this problem, Hasselblad has used modern yaw rate sensor technology to measure angular velocity in an innovative way. The result is the new Absolute Position Lock (APL) processor, which forms the foundation of Hasselblad's True Focus feature
- The APL processor accurately logs camera movement during any recomposing, then uses these exact measurements to calculate the necessary focus adjustment, and issues the proper commands to the lens's focus motor so it can compensate
- The APL processor computes the advanced positional algorithms and carries out the required focus corrections at such rapid speed that no shutter lag occurs
- The H4D's firmware then further perfects the focus using the precise data retrieval system found on all H System lenses
- Full H1 and H2 functionality - and more
- The H4X is designed to provide the same extensive functionality as the H1 and H2 cameras
- It also adds a number of functions such as:
- True Focus
- HCD lens compatibility
- Compatible with HVD 90x viewfinder, which is optimized for 36×48 mm format
- High power AF illumination
- Number of Profiles increased to from 4 to 8
- More programmable button options
- All these new features are available regardless if you are working with film magazines, the CF/CFH back or a compatible 3rd party digital back
