Hasselblad H4X
October 24, 2011 | News
Update: the body has been released. Hasselblad is requiring the trade-in of an H1 or H2 body to receive an H4X. Individuals cannot purchase an H4X (even as a backup to an H4X) without such a trade-in. In addition the H4X is not comaptible with any of Hasselblad’s own digital backs and the H4D will remain closed. This is not the announcement many photographers were hoping for.
From Capture Integration Rumor Headquarters:
It looks like Hasselblad is about to release a new body called the H4X. It is stated to be compatible with all third-party backs which the H1/H2 was compatible with. This means H1/H2 owners who are using their body/lenses with Phase One or Leaf digital backs will be able to upgrade their bodies without having to change backs, and can upgrade their backs without fear they are being locked out of the Hasselblad ecosystem. We found this at hasselblad.com/H4x which is apparently under construction and likely not meant to be active/public. We’ve made a screen grab and attached it below in case it is taken down.
Notably the link indicates the H4X will support the HC28mm, HC35-90mm, and will sport True Focus.
The H4X provides a fantastic successor or upgrade to your H1 or H2/H2F body and supports all H System lenses, most third party backs*, and even features a film back option. The H4X also provides a technological bridge to our faithful H1 and H2/H2F customers enabling them to take advantage of all the features that photographers have come to expect from a Hasselblad H4 series camera, including Hasselblad’s world-acclaimed True Focus technology, which allows you to concentrate completely on creativity without worrying about focus mechanics, and the ability to use the HVD 90x viewfinder optimized for the 36×48mm format.
We expect this to result in a deluge of orders for H-mount Phase One IQ backs. Since the IQ is already back-ordered our recommendation to any rental houses, photographers, or studios who want to upgrade to call us right away at 877-217-9870 and get their order in before the waiting-line grows.

New England Landscapes Wrap Up
October 13, 2011 | News
Capture Integration Masters Series Workshop: New England Landscapes Debrief
After a wonderful and exhausting week in Bretton Woods, NH, the CI team is back in the office and missing our time in the White Mountain National Forrest with so many amazing friends. The weather was absolutely beautiful and we even had some record highs towards the end of the week. The final tally was 6 manufacturers reps, 5 days of stunning fall color, and 1 tech from Miami who couldn’t get his jacket open in the cold morning frost. We were up for 6 straight sunrises, taught hours of Capture One, went over the nuances of tech cameras, and even shot Infrared with a Leaf Aptus-II 33 specially designed for us to use and learn at this workshop.
Brand New Leaf Aptus-II 33 IR!
IR-pass filter on Left, IR-block filter on Right | Images by Charlie Brown
One of our goals for this workshop was to bring a true infrared digital back to the event that all could use and learn from. A big thanks to Ziv Argov and the crew at Leaf in Israel for turning this goal into reality with an Leaf Aptus-II 33 converted to IR. The results were stunning. The images above were taken by attendee Charlie Brown and are just a small sampling of what that back is capable of. If you are interested in a Leaf IR back, give us a call. We are currently the only dealer you can get them from and have the experience with them to help teach you how to use it.
Our own Doug Peterson spent hours with Ziv Argov, Robb Williamson, and multiple attendees learning how to get the most out of the Leaf Aptus-II 33 IR. They must have photographed every inch of the Mount Washington Resort with the 33IR on a Cambo Wide RS with a Schneider 43XL. The image to the left was taken by Robb Williamson and you can see a few more of his thoughts and images over at GetDPI. The biggest advantage of this IR back is that you can shoot full color or IR with just a switch of a lens filter and white balance. We’ll be posting more info on the Aptus-II 33 IR soon and if you have any questions or would like to rent or buy send us an email to info@captureintegration.com.
More Workshops to Come!
The wheels are already turing for our next installment of our Masters Series Workshop. Keep an eye on the blog for an announcement in the future. Where else can you get direct access to the manufacturers reps, hands on instruction with hard to find items, and the knowledge of Capture Integration all in one place?
One more thing!
How long does it take a tech to open his jacket?

10.7.2 Breaks Brushes in C1 6.3.1
October 13, 2011 | Tech, Tech Features
We have tested the latest version of OSX, released this week, 10.7.2.
In Capture One 6.3.1 this update appears to have broken the brush tool used for spot/dust correction and local adjustment layers. These tools remain useable but the cursor no longer changes to an outline of the brush, and instead remains a standard cursor.
For this reason we’d recommend most Capture One users not to update to 10.7.2 until there is an update to Capture One to address this.
Update: this also applies to other cursors like the white balance cursor (thanks Paul for reporting this).

Integrated Workflow with Capture 1 and Media Pro
Capture One is widely considered to be the best raw conversion software, particularly for high-end photographic applications. One thing that has been missing, however, is an image catalog application with seamless integration to Capture One. With the release of Media Pro, Phase One has dramatically expanded the capabilities of a Capture One based workflow.
Join DAM guru Peter Krogh as he explains and demonstrates how these two powerful programs can work together to streamline workflow, increase security, and provide faster access to your valuable photos. We’ll be offering two opportunities to learn about this revolutionary workflow.

Media Pro & Capture One IntegrationThis program will highlight the capabilities of Phase One Media Pro, and demonstrate the integration potential with Capture One. You’ll get a great understanding of the functionality Media Pro offers, and see how to effectively use it to manage even a very large collection of images. |
Hands-on Workshop (Spots Limited)In the workshop program, we’ll take a deeper dive into Media Pro, exploring the capabilities it offers. Although the program is very intuitive to use, it’s so packed with functionality that even advanced users are unaware of some capabilities. We’ll move through each part of the program, discussing the functionality and how to use it in practical applications. We’ll also be able to spend some time with the procedure for sorting out your existing collection. Media Pro is one of the best tools anywhere to help you sort out an image collection that has not been cataloged in an orderly way. And because the workshop is small, we’ll be able to spend time looking at the questions that are of particular interest to the attendees. Attendees will be asked to bring their own laptop computers along with a selection of images so that you can leave with system configured for your use. |
