In my limited knowledge, the differences relate more to the digital side of things over the film side. As @DodoKing187 mentioned the H3D can shoot with the film back. The H3DII is purely digital and is a complete Hasselblad system which incorporates their True Focus System and more integration between the back and the camera. If you were choosing between the H1 and H3D for shooting both digital and film I would probably choose the digital back first and then find the camera that supports it best. Trying to buy a H3D without testing it first for compatibility with your digital/film back would make me nervous... i mean they both look almost identical. Although i guess almost all of the H3D II would come with the hasselblad digital back as part of the camera. Happy shopping!

Hi Vernon, I have found the files for the D800. Those images were test shots and were not captured on the day of the film shoot. The images from the D800 were used to evaluate and lock in the exposure settings which were used in the day of the film shoot. The D800 was basically a polaroid camera for the shoot. Send me an email to films@getflavr.online with your requirements and a brief outline of your curiosity in the digital images (just for my curiosity....)and i will create a dropbox with the files for you. I originally was going to include the D800 images within the book but decided not to in the end, to keep it purely analogue. Thanks for reaching out... Cheers Gus.

Only single point focus on this model. I think that True Focus came out on the H4D and above.

Absolutely on point, couldn't agree with you more. And you keep the same lens characteristics when moving form one back to another. I really should use this camera more often...

Hi there, this is available through the apple store as an iBook. Just put “FLAVR” in the search bar. Cheers

​@@guskollar ahh that sucks im a Windows / samsung user

Hi James, thanks for reaching out. The camera has full, 1/2 and 1/3 stops as exposure options in the camera. The display uses a mix of both EV and traditional f stop / timings. From memory you can choose one of the three options in the settings. You also have the option for full, 1/2 and 1/3 exposure settings in the exposure compensation settings whilst using the camera. I had to find a copy of the Hassleblad H1 manual online to verify this as most of my work is full stop exposure. There are also bracketing options, and time lapse settings which is pretty cool. Hope this answers your question... Cheers.

Interested in selling?

@@cafequemao yes but will wait for the pandemic to be over I'm in the uk I'd want near to 5k for both with film backs flash two handgrip one rechargable each p25 ccd back 5 batts and other stuff like flash adapters . need a new roof

Honestly it’s actually cheaper to buy a camera that comes with a film back than trying to find one separately. Separate backs come up on eBay from time to time and generally start at around $800 usd, although that price probably increasing...

@@resonartmedia948 thanks for the reply, I can’t seem to find any cameras with film backs either anywhere online! It’s a shame as I think I was going to go for a 4x with the true focus, a p30 back and a film back but can’t find one! Are there third party film backs?

@@fatheadedfish there are no third party film backs however this camera was built by Fuji and sometimes you can find the backs as Fuji branded rather than Hasselblad branded. Good luck with your search!

@@resonartmedia948 really do appreciate your help! One last question I promise, do you know if any of the Fuji 120 backs like the gx680 will work with a hasselblad H4x?

@@fatheadedfish no problems, Fuji built the body for Hasselblad... and the Fuji version is called a GX645AF Sometimes you get lucky on eBay by using this in the search. The GX645AF was only sold in Japan. No other film back will fit. The P30 is a great back, try to find the plus version P30+ as it can do hour long exposures and live view through a computer via FireWire. Best of luck with your search!

very interesting info. thank you

It’s actually the shutter in the lenses which are most likely to fail. Pretty sure Hasselblad only service cameras under warranty. Luckily Hasselblad continues to support film backs with Hx4, Hx5 and Hx6 range.

Never Wifed Hi there!! Yes it is available. Depending on where you are located it may be easier to pick up a copy from a photographic retailer. Alternatively you can pick up a copy at getflavr.online We ship from Australia so depending where you are in the world it could take up to six weeks to arrive due to the current conditions. If you have any more questions let me know. Cheers!

Hi Sean, apologies for the delay. Congrats on the Bronica... its a sweet camera. Long exposures with film can give you mixed results as you have suggested. As for the best way to meter your shots is with a digital camera, sounds corny but its going to give you a tangible result. There are a bunch of charts you can refer to with respect to exposure times for each film and they are generally available from the respective film manufacturer. I’m guessing that you are shooting during the day using multiple stop ND filters like the big stopper from Lee (10 Stops). Using these filters can present issues like colour casts which are independent of the film / sensor. Reciprocity in film is more related to the shift of colour and/or exposure over exposures of ten or more minutes... depending on the film stock. Again the best way to test any variance is to shoot a colour passport using both your film camera and a digital camera with the same exposure settings and filters and then comparing the results. ND filters are light blockers which allow the camera to effectively shoot wide open aperture in bright daylight. This is mostly relevant for video as the shutter speed needs to be set to twice the frame rate. Using ND filters for photography to extend exposure time is highly effective for removing moving objects from landscapes... like cars and people. And for running water. Polarised filters are particularly useful for removing reflections from reflective surfaces such as water and glass. They can also darken blue skies or increase contrast. Two different filters for two different jobs, but both are fun to experiment with. I hope this helps, let me know if you have any more questions. :D

Poseidon22332 Hi there! Thanks for the compliment. An X-Rite Colour checker passport was shot as an image on each film and then the image of the passport and its grey swatch was used during scanning to colour correct each image. Thanks again.

Jas Mann, yeah.... kind of like waiting for Kodak to release ektachrome back on the market 😩 What did you want to see Jas? Let me know in the comments...

@1:30 there is a link in the top left to a video that is not available, can you add it back?

Ditto - love the look of the print copy shown in the video!

Hi Richard Alexander. The Lens/Camera used in this shoot was the Nikon 80-200 2.8D on a Nikon F5. Exposed with flash at f8 1/250.

OnePlusOne. FLAVR thanks!

Hi Jason, I live in Melbourne Australia and the support for film products from Fuji Australia is pretty slim. This film stock is difficult to find and generally more expensive than all of the other films in this review. The FLAVR book has a review on this film, and is currently available for download from iTunes and Amazon, and it is a great film like pretty much all of the films from Fuji. It simply was not included for these reasons and also these films were chosen to give a broad cross sample of films ranging from $5.00 AUD to $22.00 AUD a roll. Fingers crossed we hope to find a publisher next year so we can start selling the paperback internationally. Thanks for your question.

Good point, Kodak Portra 400 and Fuji Pro 400H are basically the standard and often only available 400 speed color films in the US.

Hello drwatson, the scanner used for this video and the entire FLAVR book was the Epson 4870 Photo Desktop scanner, then imported into Capture One for Sharpening. The 4870 is about three generations behind the Epson v800 and has an optical resolution of 4800dpi. All of these images were scanned at the optical resolution and then resized and sharpened in Capture One. Thanks for your question.

Thanks for your question, the paperbook is expected to be available early next year. Fingers crossed we hope to find a publisher next year so we can start selling the paperback internationally. Thanks for your question.

Printed book expected in 2018 or 2019 then?

Thanks for your question, the paperbook is expected to be available early next year. Fingers crossed we hope to find a publisher next year so we can start selling the paperback internationally. Thanks for your question.

Hi Satrio, I would love to unfortunately this is an issue with Apple as Indonesia is not available at this time. Not sure why this is however our new deck of cards will be available online next month and the hardcopy book will hopefully launch early next year. Thank you for your support!!

Check this out Adam, one of the most comprehensive reviews on Agfa Vista Plus. davidschoppmann.de/index.php/reviews/film/agfa-vista-200-400/ For me personally I would say that yes all three films are manufactured by Fuji, however the Agfa is made to their specifications and result in film with a much different colour spectrum.

Thanks for your question, the paperbook is expected to be available early next year.

OnePlusOne. FLAVR excellent. Thanks for the update. Can't wait to order it

OnePlusOne. FLAVR would love to have an update I’ve been waiting for the physical copy!

FLAVR please!
