What is a 3FR file?

The 3FR file extension denotes a proprietary raw image format developed by Hasselblad for its H-system and V-system digital camera backs. Structurally based on the TIFF/EP standard (ISO 12234-2), it contains unprocessed sensor data captured via the Bayer filter mosaic, utilizing a custom lossless compression algorithm to preserve 16-bit color depth. Unlike standard raw files, 3FR files are designed to be converted into the Hasselblad 3F container (FFF) via the Phocus software ecosystem to fully embed color calibration and lens correction metadata.

How to open a 3FR file

Due to its proprietary nature, native OS support for 3FR is limited without specific codec packs. The primary method for accessing these files is Hasselblad's proprietary Phocus software or the Adobe Creative Cloud suite (Photoshop and Lightroom) using the Adobe Camera Raw plugin. For viewing without editing, users on macOS can utilize Apple Preview (if the specific camera model is supported by Core Image), while Windows users may require the Microsoft Camera Codec Pack or third-party viewers like IrfanView.
