Hello Everyone, if I get a P30+, should I get the H1 or H2?
Difference? Thanks for any responses!

It is more or less the same camera.
If you have a Hasselblad/Imacon back, you do not
need battery on the back if you have H2.


You can also upgrade H1 to an H2 for very little money.


It is more important to have the latest firmware in the camera than having H2.

I have a H1 upgraded to a H2. It even say H2 on the camera.

No difference at all.  ( I have been told  )

Functionally no difference if you are not using a Hasselblad back. The H2 ships with a rechargeable battery grip. The H1 did not. For 500 bucks, you can upgrade a H1 to H2 and you get the rechargeable grip and charger. This I find odd, since the grip and charger cost $400 to buy separately...
