“Victor Hasselblad AB is a Swedish manufacturer of medium format cameras, photographic equipment and image scanners based in Gothenburg, Sweden. The company originally became known for its classic analog medium format cameras that used a waist level viewfinder.”
Hasselblad cameras are known for costing a great expense of money, the 200 Megapixel Hasselblad camera costing $45,000, but because of such a big amount of money, apparently its due to producing incredible 100-megapixel shots.
“This camera is bigger and more demanding than most, but its also far smaller and easier to operate than anything else with a sensor of its size.”
When taking a look at the genre that people prefer to follow when taking pictures with this camera, it seems to be a lot of portrait photography going on. I believe it’s most likely due to it being sharp focus on the main subject (the model) and blurs out the background which is always super satisfactory for portrait photos.
Here’s some examples of portrait photography that people have took using the camera:
Here you can see by using the Hasselblad camera it draws all attention the model instantly blurring the background. It concentrates on every small amount of detail upon her which makes the shot seem bold and independent.
Again it gives a super similar effect to the first example I showed, it blurs the dark green background and pulls in on every detail of the model. It’s perfect for creating a statement and a strong fierce almost mood, as it seems to bring out every single models personality due to the sharp focus on all of the model.
Here they used the Hasselblad camera to capture the model in motion which it clearly has done perfectly and it’s even better in black and white. It captured every sense of mood due to again all of the model being in focus so here you can see she is determined and willing to do what it takes.
