For sale, lightly used Hasselblad Image Bank-II with optional accessories:

Included are the 100 gig IBII mint, complete in-box ... 2 Sony Lithium L batteries, one slightly used, the other still in unopened package, Unused charger w/ AC and car DC connections.

The IB-II has a couple of applications when used with any HD and any CFV back (excluding the H4D/60, which has its own battery configuration coming).

it provides power and capture storage for Hasselblad H backs when removed from the H camera for use on Technical Cameras in studio and on location. It is connected by means of a Firewire 800 tether and is very small and easy to transport.

It has no buffer limit and allows fast capture and non-stop storage of from 4280 to 2289 full RAW files, which is perfect for long continuous portrait sessions like Senor portraits, and corporate shooting with the H camera.

I also used this in cold wether shooting by keeping the IB-II in my pocket ... when the IB-II is connected, the grip battery then only has to run the camera not the back, so shooting can continue for a much longer time. I am trying to confirm, but if I recall correctly, you can capture to a CF card and transfer to the IB for redundancy.

Reason for selling: The only H camera that cannot store images to the IB-II is the H4D/60. It will power the back but images cannot be captured to it ... so this needs to go to someone with any other H camera or CFV.

B&H is listing the IB-II again, so any patent dispute must have been resolved in the US. B&H price is $1,995. + shipping ... not including any battery or charger.

(Be sure to read the B&H five star reviews)

My price is $1,150. with charger and batteries ... Pay Paled and shipped USPS Priority to ConUS.

PM any questions or to make a purchase,

Thanks,

Marc
