Focal length equivalents & field of view#
Multiply any focal length by 0.72 to get the full-frame field of view. Angles are for a rectilinear lens focused at infinity.

Equivalent aperture#
Exposure is identical at the same f-number on any format; equivalence only describes depth of field and total light.
Night-sky exposure limits#
Longest exposure before stars trail. The NPF rule accounts for pixel pitch and is stricter than the classic 500 rule — use it for pin-sharp stars on high-resolution sensors. (NPF needs a known resolution and is omitted here.)
| Focal length | 500 rule |
|---|---|
| 19 mm (14 mm eq.) | 36.5 s |
| 28 mm (20 mm eq.) | 24.8 s |
| 33 mm (24 mm eq.) | 21.0 s |
| 49 mm (35 mm eq.) | 14.2 s |
| 69 mm (50 mm eq.) | 10.1 s |
Handheld shutter speed guide#
The reciprocal rule uses the equivalent focal length. High-resolution sensors may need one stop faster than this for pixel-sharp results.
| Focal length | No stabilisation (1/equiv. focal) | With 3-stop IS | With 5-stop IBIS |
|---|---|---|---|
| 33 mm | 1/25 s | 0.3 s | 1.3 s |
| 69 mm | 1/50 s | 1/6 s | 0.6 s |
| 139 mm | 1/100 s | 1/13 s | 0.3 s |
| 278 mm | 1/200 s | 1/25 s | 1/6 s |

Frequently asked questions#
What is the crop factor of the Hasselblad H3D?
The Hasselblad H3D has a crop factor of 0.72× relative to 35 mm full frame (diagonal 60.1 mm vs 43.3 mm).
What size is the Hasselblad H3D sensor?
50.0 × 33.3 mm (Medium format 44 × 33 mm), an area of 1666 mm² — 193% of full frame.
Is the Hasselblad H3D full frame?
No — its sensor is larger than full frame (medium format).
What lens mount does the Hasselblad H3D use?
The Hasselblad H3D uses the Hasselblad H (flange distance 61.63 mm).
How long can I expose the night sky with the Hasselblad H3D?
With a 28 mm lens (20 mm equivalent) the 500 rule gives 25 s.
