Hasselblad H3DII-39 (2007)
The H3DII-39 is a medium format digital SLR released in November 2007, aimed at professional studio and landscape work. It pairs a Hasselblad H-mount autofocus body with an integrated digital back, so the shooter doesn't have to juggle separate capture components. The heart of the camera is Kodak's 39-megapixel CCD sensor, physically twice the size of the largest 35mm DSLR sensors of its day. Basic ISO runs from 50 to 400, extendable to 800 when shooting tethered through Hasselblad's Phocus software.
The body measures 131 x 153 x 213mm and weighs 2290g (5.05lbs). That's a lot of camera, as you'd expect from a medium format system. It has a 3-inch, 230,000-dot rear screen and a single CompactFlash slot (Type I or II). The H3DII-39 was launched at $22,000. CameraReview gave it a modest 49/100 score, noting that its specifications were impressive for the time. A used unit with a shutter count of 11,279 has appeared on the market, fully functional with battery grip and charger, though no price was stated.
Documentation on this model is thinner than on Hasselblad's V-system classics. No shutter speed range, autofocus details, or battery specs are recorded in the available sources. It was a serious tool for working professionals.
