Meter prism viewfinder adjustments
The Hasselblad meter prism viewfinders meas-
ure the light level on the focusing screen. They
are calibrated at the factory to give an accurate
reading with one particular type of screen. If
that focusing screen is replaced with another
type which provides a different light level un-
der the same ambient conditions, the meter has
to be adjusted to compensate for the difference.
Towards the end of this manual you will find
a table that shows the adjustments that should
be made with meter prism viewfinders to com-
pensate for the light level differences with the
different focusing screens.
Please refer to your viewfinder’s operating in-
structions for further information about other
functions.
Professional lens shade
60
The Proshade 6093T (40739) provides the ulti-
mate in flare and stray light reduction. It is par-
ticularly useful if you have a number of lenses as
it fits virtually all lenses in the range. It is sup-
plied with a Proshade mask 6093/250 (40312)
which provides further control for longer
lenses when the Proshade is fully extended. See
section 56 above on Rear Cover MultiControl
for combined use to produce optimum shading
control. The Proshade also functions as a gela-
tine filter holder.
