Interchangeable Components

The Hasselblad H1 is a modular medium format camera system centered on the **Hasselblad H mount**, supporting both film and digital backs for versatile professional use. The body is built from **magnesium alloy and polycarbonate**, measuring **155 x 117 x 89mm** and weighing **820g**. Its optical prism viewfinder offers **100% frame coverage** and **nearly 1:1 magnification** with an 80mm lens, giving photographers an accurate and immersive composition experience. The autofocus system features **phase detection** with **one central cross-type AF point**, complemented by manual focus support. An **ISO range of 50–800** is available, subject to the attached digital back. The flash system is well-equipped, with **built-in fill flash**, a **standard ISO hot shoe**, **PC sync**, and support for both **TTL and non-TTL flash metering**. **CompactFlash** handles storage, and color output supports **Adobe RGB and sRGB** profiles. The body draws power from **three CR123A lithium batteries**. There is **no weather sealing**, **no image stabilization**, and **no wireless connectivity**, positioning this as a deliberate, system-driven tool for controlled shooting environments.

Native support for the Hasselblad H system lens lineup, giving access to a dedicated range of medium format optics.

Hasselblad H Lens Mount

Accepts both film backs and a variety of third-party digital backs (Phase One, Leaf, Kodak), allowing the system to evolve with available technology.

Modular Back System

100% frame coverage with approximately 0.5x magnification (equivalent to ~0.64x with 80mm lens), supporting precise composition in controlled shooting environments.

Optical Prism Viewfinder

Single phase-detect AF point in the center of the frame, suited to controlled studio and portrait work rather than action shooting.

Phase Detection Autofocus

Base ISO of 50 supports clean exposures in bright conditions; actual usable range depends on the attached digital or film back.

ISO 50–800 Range

Built-in fill flash, standard ISO hot shoe, and PC sync port support both TTL and non-TTL flash metering for studio and location lighting setups.

Comprehensive Flash Integration

Body built from magnesium alloy and polycarbonate, keeping weight at approximately 820g — substantial but manageable for a medium format system.

Magnesium Alloy Construction

Storage media type (including CompactFlash) is determined by the attached digital back rather than the H1 body itself.

Modular Storage via Digital Back

Camera body runs on three CR123A lithium batteries while any attached digital back draws from its own separate battery, simplifying power management.
