Phocus And Hassel Blade Capture Files - Hasselblad 907X Special Edition User Manual

7. 5 PHOCUS AND HASSELBL AD CAPTURE
FILES
Images captured by the camera are stored as Hasselblad RAW
format files or JPEG format. It is possible to store either RAW
or JPG or both RAW and JPG simultaneously.
Hasselblad RAW files are initially stored in the 3FR format
which is a proprietary Hasselblad format for the temporary
storage of captures. A 3FR file contains the complete digitized
raw image exactly as it was captured by the camera. 3FR
information requires further computing power (typically by
way of Phocus) to obtain complete development. If developed
in Phocus, 3FR files become Hasselblad 3F files – denoted
by each file now bearing the suffix ".fff". If developed by
other RAW processors, the 3FR files are not converted to 3F
but can be exported directly to TIFF and PSD according to
requirements.
907X Special Edition USER GUIDE
When working tethered to Phocus or Phocus Mobile 2, 3FR
files are automatically processed and stored in the back-
ground on a computer appearing as 3F files on the hard disk
ready for selective adjustment and export. 3FR files stored on
a SD card can be processed using:
Hasselblad Phocus
Adobe Camera Raw
Adobe Lightroom
Capture files can be stored for future use as 3FR files (from a
SD card) for later processing in Phocus or other software, or
they can be stored as 3F files (as a result of tethered shooting
or 3FR files processed and converted in Phocus). In all cases
if you keep the original 3FR/3F files, you will also retain the
possibility of reprocessing them in the future in later versions
of Phocus or other software to take advantage of eventual
improvements and developments.
