• Only the single shot function (A or AS mode camera settings) should be set on the camera.
Rapid sequence shots are not possible.
• Use the
Adapter EL
(supplied) to provide the necesssary extension beyond the motor housing
of the EL models for battery attachment. It is attached to a CF digital back in the same manner
as a battery, and the battery itself is then attached to the adapter as in the illustration.
ELX
For use with 500EL/ELM and 500/553ELX models:
• Make an
ELX
setting.
• The
Exposure Cable EL
(supplied) should be connected.
• All exposures times, including the B setting, function correctly without having to alter
the “Exposure Time” setting.
• Rapid sequence shots are not possible.
• Use the
Adapter EL
(supplied) to provide the necesssary extension beyond the motor housing
of the EL models for battery attachment. It is attached to a CF digital back in the same manner
as a battery, and the battery itself is then attached to the adapter as in the illustration.
Pinhole
For use with lenses/cameras with no shutter. Intended primarily for use in a studio en-
vironment where complete darkness can be achieved and exposures made accordingly
(also useful for ‘light painting’). In this mode a CF digital back uses the exposure time (as
well as other required stages in a capture sequence) set in the Capture Sequence dialog.
The back can be triggered either via the
START
(MENU/EXIT) button or from FlexColor
(see later section for full description of Capture Sequence settings procedure).
Flash sync
For use with an ArcBody, a FlexBody or view cameras with a Hasselblad adapter.
• Make a
Flash sync
setting.
• A
Flash sync input cable
should not be used.
• All exposures times, including the B setting, function correctly without having to alter
the “Exposure Time” setting.
• Do not use a winder at rapid sequence setting.
500
For use with 500C/CM, 501C/CM and 503 CX/CXi/CW models.
• Make a
500
setting.
H
• Make an
H
setting.
Shutter Delay
There can be differences in the amount of time required in preparation (raising the
mirror, opening/closing the shutter etc) for digital capture between various camera
models. This corrective feature adjusts the time a little to ensure the image is read out
from the sensor. The normal setting is
Default
and should only be changed if problems
are encountered.
Exposure Time
This setting should be changed for cable-free exposure times longer than 1/8 second, en-
suring that it matches the set shutter speed on the lens. The settings range from 1/8 second
to 32 seconds (1/8 second is the default setting). The ELD also has a “Bulb” setting.
All Hasselblad EL models except the ELD
require an Exposure Cable EL.
Illustrated here also is use of the Adapter EL to
hold the battery.
