What it is
Hasselblad Phocus is free RAW image-processing software for Windows and macOS, designed to work with Hasselblad cameras. It supports 3FR and FFF formats and includes local controls for exposure, white balance, colour, and moiré using gradients or a brush. Hasselblad Natural Colour Solution is intended to deliver reliable colour without multiple profiles. The Keystone Tool corrects perspective with guideline controls or sliders, including dual-axis correction. Phocus can detect moiré and correct it across an image or in selected areas. Digital Lens Correction addresses colour aberration, distortion, and light fall off for supported Hasselblad H System and classic Carl Zeiss V System lenses. Other tools include film-grain simulations with controls for appearance, correction of chromatic aberration in third-party lens images, and tethered focus bracketing through Capture Sequencer for X, H, and 907X cameras. The listed Mac update, version 4.2.2, adds in-app language switching, smoother zoom, and editing support for re-imported exported HEIF files.
