Hi,
Thanks for chiming in!
For one thing I just applied "Scenic" preset in Lightroom on the JPEGs, that sharpening was developed by Jeff Schewe and I guess it is pretty OK for printing. I of course realise that sharpening is an individual thing, but I didn't want to show images with excessive sharpening. Images without sharpening are always very soft, so I felt that "Scenic" preset was a decent compromise.
What I have seen from Hasselblads data is that in general the new H-series lenses are a bit better regarding sharpness than the older Hasselblad lenses.
So if anyone feels these images hold up, with adequate sharpening, than I would say the Hasselblad lenses would be usable with this sensor size.
Some of the wide angles for the H-system have the image circle limited to 60mm. That should be kept in mind.
Another point, I have shot same lens from the same position with my P45+, and the reproduction is dramatically better with the smaller pixels. So, I would say that a back with the sensor used on the Hasselblad V series would be a major upgrade for owners, and I would think it would be a worthwhile update also on the H-series.
Obviously, I cannot say anything about Phase One lenses. I have seen some MTF curves for those lenses, but they use different lp/mm than Hasselblad, so it is no easy comparison, but it is my understanding that they should be very good.
Best regards
Erik
The samples are soft, but perfectly usable. Nothing a little bit of focus magic can't cure IMO.
