A very interesting experience from the start right through to post processing.\u00a0Drop in the supplied ground glass with crop indication.\u00a0Attach the CFV back; just as simple as switching a film back.\u00a0No cords or electronic connections. Very cool.\u00a0Buttons and menus are clear and quick.<\/p>\n
The view screen had plastic on it and the\u00a0images looked horrible (hopefully better without the plastic).
\nViewing angle is extremely critical on this view screen.\u00a0Shooting is exactly like using a film back;\u00a0including the cranking after each frame – which really felt wonderfully nostalgic.\u00a0Pre-release of mirror and shutter release all work just as it did in the good old days.<\/p>\n
Back at the computer:\u00a0The large 45 MB RAW files take significantly longer to load into Lightroom;\u00a0when compared to DMR, 5D and M8 files.\u00a0The files look quite impressive at ISO 100.\u00a0At ISO 400 a fine grain “noise” begins to emerge in shadows;\u00a0however with a very tight film grain look.\u00a0Exporting from these large files also takes a lot more time.\u00a0In other words big sensors need big computers and hard drives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Since the release of the Hasselblad CFV 39 back I’ve wondered how it would feel and function.\u00a0Yesterday Steve Goldsmith, from Calumet, kindly drove 2\/3rds of the way, through rain and beastly road construction traffic. A big thank you goes out to Steve.\u00a0We met in Racine and put the back on my old CM and made […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,65,19,34,17,28,39],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-daily-thoughts","category-gear","category-hand-made","category-people","category-photography","category-travel","category-things","entry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1761","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1761"}],"version-history":[{"count":28,"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1761\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1783,"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1761\/revisions\/1783"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1761"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1761"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imagist.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1761"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
