Hasselblad 200c MS Digital Back

Differing from standard single-shot capture, this multi-shot digital back allows you to record either four or six sequential exposures, which are automatically blended into a single frame, in order to achieve greater color definition that is void of unwanted moiré and aliasing. During each multi-shot capture, the sensor physically moves, using piezo motors, in small increments between exposures in order to gain full RGB data for each pixel to afford heightened color resolution, sharpness, and clarity. This 200c version adds two additional exposures during the multi-shot capture in order to further refine the process and gather more color information than the standard 4-shot image.

In order to record a multi-shot capture, you must shoot tethered to a computer and have Hasselblad Phocus software running. Additionally, either an H4X, H5X, or similar body, or a view/technical camera with lens mounted in an electronic shutter must be used to make use of the multi-shot capabilities. It is highly recommended to work from a tripod or camera stand under consistent lighting, and multi-shot captures are best-suited for stationary subjects. The back can also function as a standard 1-shot capture digital back, and can be used untethered in single shot mode for portable use when paired with an optional Battery Adapter.

Utilizing a large 50MP CMOS sensor, measuring 43.8 x 32.9mm, the 200c MS is capable of capturing an extremely wide dynamic range of up to 14 stops along with vivid 16-bit color depth. When combined with the Hasselblad Natural Color Solution, tonal transitions and skin tones show immense depth, detail, and clarity for lifelike image quality, even in dark shadow and bright highlight regions. To suit working in a variety of lighting conditions, a sensitivity range of ISO 100-6400 is available, and still files are saved in the Hasselblad 3FR raw file format or as 8-bit TIFFs.
