    Hasselblad Phocus 3.8.5 for Windows Available

    I'd say it has a lot to do with Apple abandoning NVIDIA (and thus CUDA as the software stack) about 10+ years ago. Apple has it's own GPU hardware and software architecture, it is of course proprietary to Apple but extremely efficient and Phocus most likely is heavily dependent on Apple Metal...

    Mr. Polaroid | Full Documentary | AMERICAN EXPERIENCE | PBS

    I don't have access to the original video here but this one about the Impossible project I really liked The Revenge of Analog: For Those Who Are Sick of the Digital World Happy watching, Ralf

    Toyo goes out of business

    Really sad but guess the writing was on the wall and others will follow. When I picked up my MT3000 from the Linhof factory in Munich five years ago, I came to realize that Linhof earns money from real estate. Linhof itself is only using a small part of the big factory it once used. The rest of...

    Wide open performance of the H100 2.2 and wide angle performance of H28

    The H System (beginning with the H1) started as a 645 film camera with a HC lens lineup of 35, 50, 80, 100, 120 Macro, 210 and 300 and later a 50-110 zoom. Eventually the HC 150 got an update with the HC 150N. When the H3D (D for digital) came out, Hasselblad first introduced the HCD 28 for the...

    Wide open performance of the H100 2.2 and wide angle performance of H28

    There is no 24 MK II, the 24 is another HCD lens which means it does not cover the full 645 format. BUT, as far as I remember it was specifically built to work well with the HTS 1.5, Hasselblad's Tilt/Shift converter and thus might have better coverage than the HCD 28. Leave this for someone...

    Wide open performance of the H100 2.2 and wide angle performance of H28

    Hi Paul, the image here https://www.getdpi.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-thing-about-getdpi.76991/post-921144 was shot with the HC 100 lens at f2.2, although with 50MP only. I love this lens for portraits. I have no precise measurements but the HC 50II is the best H lens I have. The HCD 28 is...

    The magnificent Medium Format Projector thread...

    Oh no, this is even more Dante than MFD. I still have 3 Leica RT-M carrousel projectors for 35mm film at home but only one MF projector. I acquired maybe one of the last batches of Wess Plastic frames for 35mm (5000 frames bunkered) and few hundred MF frames. The MF frames come with a 'register...

    Phocus Mobile 2 v3.0.0

    From the Hasselblad web site: "With input from numerous Hasselblad Masters, the AI model assures effortless noise reduction that rivals native low ISO quality across various camera models. Utilising the advanced neural network AI model and the robust processing power of smartphones, it can...

    The thing about GetDPI ....

    Agree to @PeterA and @vieri . I believe there are many reasons, one of them is certainly the maturity of the technology in MF space. I do remember back in 2008 when I joined, I did come here and read every single post of @fotografz (and @PeterA and few others). Those were the days when the first...

    Phocus Mobile 2 v3.0.0

    That was my thought too and I believe they probably benefitted from DJI software development capacities and know how. Doing a meaningful Neural Network training for noise reduction is not trivial, not something a 'normal' software engineer involved in the development of Phocus would be able to...

    Phocus Mobile 2 v3.0.0

    Would be really cool to have this feature for the H models too. Should be 'just' a matter of retraining the NN model with different raw files. In my opinion, this is one of the more useful use cases for AI.

    The thing about GetDPI ....

    Thanks for the wakeup post, agree. Last two years I worked on a project that didn't involve MF, so I had not much to show here. This year is different, coming back to MF land. I might withdraw from certain threads here but certainly not from GetDPI, the one site responsible for dragging me into...

    203FE purchase advise

    This is what Mr. Kuehn, former Hasselblad support engineer told me. There is no need to get this back in place, just get it out before it destroys the focal shutter. At least in Germany it seems there is no way to repair a 203FE shutter, so if that piece of foil gets in between the shutter upon...

    Help Needed: Hasselblad 203FE Only Firing in Bulb Mode

    Hi Fredrik, i will check with my 203FE when I am back home, never happened to me. Which lens are you trying with? BUT: Please read this about the 203FE before releasing the shutter again, very important for 203FE cameras that haven't been used for a while: 203FE purchase advise | Page 2 | The...

    Old vs new.

    Hi @TimG, not sure you made up your mind regarding the X2D yet. It is certainly a fine camera, don't have it as the X1DII and H6D-50c are more than I actually need. Regarding T/S solutions for the X2D I see two options Get a HTS 1.5 adapter from Hasselblad. There is a thread here on GetDPI...
