at the top end of the H system list, the H4d-50 is on its way to 
becoming a workhorse for professional photographers who need 
an easy-to-use and versatile camera to cover a variety of top qual-
ity assignments where only the best is good enough. the true 
Focus with absolute Position lock feature combines with the Ultra 
Focus feature to produce exceptionally sharp files. these are then 
honed to perfection in Phocus using digital auto Correction for the 
ultimate in quality. the Hasselblad Natural Color Solution (HNCS) 
simply enables you to produce outstanding and reliable out-of-
the-box colors, with skin tones, specific product colors and other 

 difficult tones reproduced easily and effectively. When the situation 
demands something a little extra, the H4d-50 can take full advan-
tage of the Hasselblad HtS 1.5 tilt/shift adapter. Futhermore, to 
exploit its capabilities, the sensor unit can be used mounted on 
large-format / technical / view cameras.
Backed by a wide range of extremely high performance lenses as 
well as the whole line of accessories, the H4d-50 proclaims itself 
as a formidable opponent in the medium format arena and an indis-
pensable tool for the professional photographer.
