Hopefully also electronic shutter and automatic brightness control. Back-illuminated sensor? (Well, can dream)several advances over the old one
It must be the old sensor so no back illumination, but there should be a very slow electronic shutter.Hopefully also electronic shutter and automatic brightness control. Back-illuminated sensor? (Well, can dream)
Me too. Affordable up-to-date digital back for technical camera.I'm so excited about this
I totally agree John.... I think the CFV II and the 907X is going to be a pretty cool system. Unfortunately, Hasselblad hasn't given its dealer channel any information on specs, pricing or availability. :banghead:Announcement of this back is the big news, IMO. It has several advances over the old one: battery in body, flip screen and a high resolution LCD.
And the 907x body idea is just terrific.
How about pricing and availability, Hasselblad?
Global shutter is apparently not yet technically possible for the 44x33mm format, but rolling shutter readout times are getting shorter. How much rolling shutter will be an issue for the CFV II, will have to be seen.there should be a very slow electronic shutter.
If it still uses the IMX 161, which it probably does, then readout at the sensor level is about 300 msec.Global shutter is apparently not yet technically possible for the 44x33mm format, but rolling shutter readout times are getting shorter.

It is my understanding too that Sony's IMX161 is used.If it still uses the IMX 161, which it probably does, then readout at the sensor level is about 300 msec.

There was no electronic shutter in the X1D when it was first released - it was added by a firmware update (after Hasselblad said for months that it was "impossible"). Since it looks (from the UI) like the CFV is running the same firmware as the X, I assume it will be available there (with the same 300msec readout constraint).It is my understanding too that Sony's IMX161 is used.
The original CFV-50c also used the IMX161 but no electronic shutter was ever made available, and I assume, for a good technical reason.
Maybe later versions of the IMX161 have faster processing? (Don't know what precisely is responsible for readout speed.)
You mean of course the CFV II 50c .There was no electronic shutter in the X1D when it was first released - it was added by a firmware update (after Hasselblad said for months that it was "impossible").

If you check the very end of the promo video I think the flash shoe is below the external viewfinder. The 907 + grip and flash shoe is interesting indeed.I like the idea of the 907. Where's the flash shoe?
At the sensor level, it's mostly how fast you can run the column ADCs. That in turn depends on their precision.(Don't know what precisely is responsible for readout speed.)
