Hasselblad's crazy 400-megapixel camera

[TriplexDread]

400 megapixels may seem like pixel-peeping overkill, but there is a point to this. For digital archivists who log art, insects and other specimens for museums, or macro photographers, more detail is always a better thing

Hasselblad have always been the Rolls Royce of the camera world for as long as I can remember.

Priced at $48K it's strictly for professionals I'd say.

When I worked on a newspaper for a while there was this photographer from another newspaper (The South London Press) who used to turn up to jobs with three Hasselblads slung round his neck which is probably the equivalent of abut £15K nowadays.

We all hated him.

I was expecting a huge camera for a sensor of that resolution. Crazy what they can pack in something that size now.

So how much are the lenses?
