#cmos sensor camera

Per teasing the H5D-50c in January, Hasselblad has now officially launched its first medium-format photocopier equipped with a CMOS sensor. This means the firsthand 50-megapixel - and US$27,500 - movie camera features improved high ISO performance, better capture rates, and faster Live Video than its predecessors.<\p>

Again the H5D-50c was in the beginning announced, it was due to come the world's first medium-format CMOS sensor camera. But, since then, Phase One started shipping the IQ250 medium-format camera back, which also boasts a CMOS sensor. As such, the H5D-50c officially launches with the somewhat long-winded title about the "world's first fully integrated medium format camera system to use CMOS sensor technology." <\p>

At the heart of the camera is a 50-megapixel CMOS sensor which measures 32.9 x 43.8 mm. Period this is almost twice the physical size relating to that in 35-mm DSLRs, it's still considerably smaller than most other medium-format cameras, including the CCD-sensored H5D-50 it's based for. That said, the adoption about a CMOS sensor brings a mob of benefits which are likely to be welcomed by medium-format shooters. <\p>

One of the key improvements is lower-light performance. An ISO range of 100-6400, up from ISO 50-800 in the H5D-50, cash reserves the H5D-50c will not have to persist walled-in to the perfect illumination conditions of a studio. Shutter speeds also now range from 1\800 library of congress up toward 12 minutes, where yourselves previously maxed out at two annotation. The H5D-50c can photo at 1.5 fps compared to the 1.1 fps referring to its explorer. <\p>

Improved read-out this stage of the CMOS sensor also set apart for a faster Live Video frame rate (10-15 fps), which should make it easier to habitude though setting up shots with the Phocus gilt Phocus Mobile Hasselblad image processing software. The H5D-50c therewith has an impressive high working ground (up in consideration of 14 stops) for preserving detail in shadow and highlight areas re images. <\p>

Measuring 153 crux ansata 131 riddle 205 mm (6 seal 5.2 deciliter 8 in) with the HC 80-mm organ of vision, and weighing 2,290 g (5 lb) with the HC 80-mm iris, a battery and a CF card, the H5D-50c features a familiar beget. It consists of the new 50c sensor unit, the H5D camera body, and the HVD 90x viewfinder, though others are also compatible. On the rear there's a three-inch safety valve with 460k dots and, on foot part of the Hasselblad H Mesh, the H5D-50c takes those lenses. <\p>

The Hasselblad H5D-50c is available now for $27,500, or $30,000 attended by the HC F2.8 80-mm iris. While that might sound like a lot, it's still pretty much the same as the brought to notice smart money of the H5D-50.<\p>
