About Hasselblad H6X

Versatility comes to the fore again from Hasselblad by offering a camera body that is fully compatible with all H System lenses, including the HCD 24mm, HCD 28mm and the HCD 35-90mm lenses. It can also use the film magazine and offers H5X functionality with 3rd party digital backs.

Although aimed primarily at current H1, H2, H2F, H4X and H5X users, the H6X can naturally act as a backup for H5D users too.

Wide range of high performance lenses
The H6X lens program is designed and engineered by Hasselblad to meet the highest optical performance specifications. The HC and HCD lenses cover a wide spectrum of focal lengths and feature the fastest and most precise auto-focus system there is today. The unique HCD 24mm wide-angle lens, the HCD 28mm and the HCD 35-90 zoom lens have been tailored for digital use with a 37 x 49mm sensor, but can of course also be used with larger sensors with a minimal drop in performance in the extreme corners. The integral lens shutters allow for flash sync up to 1/800 second. The lens shutter also provides silent and vibration-free operation.

Full H1 and H2 functionality - and more
The H6X is designed to provide the same extensive functionality as the H1 and H2 cameras. It also adds a number of new functions such as:

• True Focus
• HCD lens compatibility
• High power AF illumination
• Number of Profiles increased from 4 to 8
• More programmable button options

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 re-compose the image. In short distances especially, this re-composing causes focus error, as the plane of focus sharpness follows the camera's movement, perpendicular to the axis of the lens.
