Hasselblad makes really technologically advanced modern cameras, often on such a high technical level, that you can say that these cameras are from the future.
Hasselblad surpised us with a new digital medium-format camera. This has full 50 mega pixel and reaches a resolution of 6,132 x 8,176 pixels. That is a very high resolution at this time. The price of those cameras is very high too. This new camera, for example, costs 30 000 euros. Not every photo agency could spend so much money for a camera, the most free-lancers could only dream about it. What I do not understand why such expensive camera supports an ISO value of up to 400. I suspect that it is because of the resolution with that the noise is more visible than on sensor with less resolution. Is the new matrix of Hasselblad not good enough?
It is also interesting to know that the manufacturer of matrix is Kodak. I was always sceptical about the cameras from Kodak, but now when I know that a matrix of Kodak will be used in such high end devices, I will probably change my oppinion.
According to the manufacturer, the size of one photo is up to 300 MB. It is not only the problem of lack of space with that you will be confronted, but also you will need a very powerful computer to edit the photos. But I believe that if you have so much money for this camera, then it will be not a problem, to buy a good computer. The computer will be a bargain, compared to the camera.
