Hasselblad XCD 28P

Can anyone tell me how to edit multiple files in Phocus, specifically to just change the exposure? Many thanks !

Wonderful. I have yet to see any issues with the 28 im my photos. Phocus takes a little time to get used to. Some versions can be surprisingly buggy.

All of my 28p photos were fine, but I process them through Phocus, which I suspect adds some electric mumbo-jumbo. So I am not sure that also applies to Lightroom.

I had some trouble with Phocus 3.8.1 in the past and went back to 3.7.6. Issues were unrelated to how Phocus is processing images - IIRC some user interface related stuff. I will try again when a new version is released.

BUT can I ask, is the 28P as sharp as f.ex. the 45P, the 21/4 or 90/3.2.
When enlargingf the pictures from the Hasselblad homepage, it seems not.
But please tell me as quickly as possible your sharpness opinion.
:)
Thanks

I have found no instance of magenta cast with our 28P. There is vignetting. It is relatively slight, about 10-12 points on an RGB scale (like 165 vs 177 RGB value), just in the extreme corner tips. With the Vignetting correction un-checked in Phocus, the vignette is closer to a full stop. (When shot wide open).

To my completely personal judgement the sharpness is fine. If you still wonder, drop me a PM.

Compared to the 45P, not as much in the corners. My excellent copy of the 45P is better overall in terms of sharpness than either my 28P or my 55V, it's really uniform and is honestly a never-sell lens. I do get great results from the 28P though, the size and price can not be beat either.

Thank you!
I might take the jump, while I dont use the 45P as much as I should and the 21/4 is often too wide for the casual shooting. And I'm sort of belonging to the wide end :)

When I finally got "the call" from the store that the 28 is in and waiting for me, the 25 was already out. I was just immensely taken by size and weight- or better: non-size and non-weight - of this little lens.

Pushed the "buy" button on the 28P just now, can't wait to carry this lens around. Any idea what the wait time is at the moment in the EU?

Regards,

I received my 28p a few days ago after ordering from the Hasselblad store. Although they mentioned a delivery window of up to 20 days, I got it within seven. This was the first time in months that the store accepted an order for it, (I checked weekly), while I kept waiting on B&H. So, the Hasselblad online store might still have some available. I’m a U.S. buyer.

Thanks so much Darlene, much appreciated. I also ordered at the Hasselblad store (in the EU though), and it also says 20 days delivery window. The store happily accepted my order (and cash), so lets see.
