Lightroom 2.4 - Hasselblad 3FR File Support

Adobe just released an update to Lightroom (version 2.4). One of the biggest upgrades that this patch includes is 3FR (Hasselblad RAW files) support for their various cameras.

Here is the list of what models are now supported by Lightroom:
Hasselblad CF-22
Hasselblad CF-22MS
Hasselblad CF-39
Hasselblad CF-39MS
Hasselblad CFH-22
Hasselblad CFH-39
Hasselblad CFV
Hasselblad 503CWD
Hasselblad H2D-22
Hasselblad H2D-39
Hasselblad H3D-22
Hasselblad H3D-31
Hasselblad H3D-39
Hasselblad H3DII-22
Hasselblad H3DII-31
Hasselblad H3DII-39
Hasselblad H3DII-39MS
Hasselblad H3DII-50

What this means is that Hasselblad users can now use Lightroom to process their 3FR RAW files. Before this patch, the 3FR files would have to get converted into DNGs or TIFFs in order for Lightroom to recognize them.

Please keep in mind that you will not have the luxury of being able to fix things lens distortion, moire, vignetting and APO correction as you would if you worked with the 3FR files in Phocus. With Phocus, just click one check box and whola... all corrected.
