Skin Tone question with Hasselblad H6D

Greg Haag

I have owned the H6D for several months now, and prior the that the H4D and before that the H2d. One of the things I have loved about the Hasselblad is the beautiful skin tones, but they are just not as good on the H6D as my H4d (which I kept as a backup). Nothing has changed in my processing other than an updated version of Phocus, I am unsure if it is something I am doing or what is going on. If anyone can shed light on this I would love to hear from you.
Thanks in advance,
Greg

Well just off the top of my head I am guessing that your H4d had a ccd sensor?

The H6d is a cmos sensor. I know some people debate whether or not there is a difference but I do see a difference to my eyes.

Thank you for your feedback, you are correct, the H4D does have a ccd sensor.
