Hasselblad H4D-50

Pros: Yield of, CCD sensor, Colors, gradations, sharpness, malleability of files... to iso base. On the used today it is at bargain prices. True Focus.. a unique feature of Hasselblad from the H4D series.

Cons: To be used basic anxiety, at high iso (400 is the limit of dependency) it is located outside its field of use. As usual, af is of limited usable use.

Opinion: Hasselblad has greatly improved colors compared to the H3D series. True Focus changes life in reasoned portrait and still life and freehand architecture (it happens). The yield of the basic iso CCD is characteristic and gives a difficult clarity with CMOS. The colors are much improved compared to the H3D (which I used) although not 100% at the levels of H6D (which I use currently) in which they are perfect. The H system is more complete in the medium format is optimized for professional use with the right tools and attention to detail. Hasselblad has great respect and communication with professionals (I am in the group of testers and feedback of H and listen and dialogue on every suggestion is observation for the development and improvement of software and hardware... unique thing in the industry). Phocus has made great strides in recent years and today it is a solid and performed raw development software with a demosaicization is a top-notch color profile management.

Hasselblad H6D-100

Pros: Colors, colors, colors..... resolution if needed, usability and reliability in the studio. Thetering in Phocus without ever a tenacity. The H system is the most complete of the medium format.

Cons: If I really have to.... AF (but I hardly ever use it)

Opinion: I am a mainly studio photographer (still-life, portrait, fashion)... I tried everything. I started with Canon then switched to H3D, then switched to Phase One (IQ-160) doing me very badly (economically but above all at the work level having always quarrelled with colors and general unreliableity of the PhaseOne system)... then returned to H4D and finally H6D.100 (to which i now also support the 907x)... What to say, it never misses a beat (as it should be but I assure you that in the medium format Grande is not taken for granted at all), splendid interface, top ergonomics, lenses system and accessories without rivals. Then the colors are always precise without having to put our hands in post... I often shoot catalogues of important brands (CK, Frau, etc.) without practically post production. It's worth all the (not a few) money spent.

Manfrotto 410

Pros: Light (for the type of head), fast to set (always for gender) and sufficiently precise and stable.

Cons: It goes a bit in crisis with heavy loads but it's fine with mirrorless with normal or medium optics (70-200 etc)

Opinion: A good rack head. Used instead of the 400 (another level completely) when you need outdoor mobility for still life or architectural/ landscape photo and you should not use heavy equipment (with medium true format it begins to show the rope). It is a good entry level head for those who face the "world" of precision rack heads... then you try the others and the initial infatuation wanes a little bit.

Manfrotto 400

Pros: Solid as rock, very precise in movements, able to withstand any load (optical and medium format benches included)

Cons: No one if used for what they need. Obviously it's not a head for sports or hunting.

Opinion: The best Manfrotto rack head (try them all). It allows very precise movements and holds any load without vibrations. It must be mounted on appropriate statics. Used in medium format even with long optics and even digital optical benches, it allows you to shoot with precision, ness and repeatability even in multi-angle.
