Hasselblad

Hasselblad is using Photokina to launch its latest professional digital 'medium format' camera, the H3D. The H3D is the world’s first 48mm full-frame, large-sensor, medium-format DSLR camera and offers up to 39 megapixels on its 48x36mm CCD sensor (twice - exactly - the size of a 'full frame' 35mm-format CCD). The sample images on show are very impressive, though with a price tag expected to run well into the tens of thousands (of dollars, euros, pounds) you would hope they would be!
