General Hardware Setup
The P back is designed to be used with the new me-
dium format cameras prepared for digital camera
backs.The use on these camera bodies can be done
without any cables attached between the P back and
the camera body or lens. All timing and communication
is done in the electrical interface contacts in the con-
necting plate.
Capturing images with the FlexAdaptor on large format
camera or a camera body without the digital interface
is supported by connecting the special lens sync cable
that comes with the P back. For a guide to usage on a
specific camera body, digital or not please consult the
corresponding chapters later in this manual.
Powering up the P back
When the camera back is connected to the body, and
a battery is inserted or the IEEE1394/FireWire cable
is connected. The Camera back can be turned on by
holding down the "Power" button just below the P
back display.
Indicator lights
When the camera is powered up you will see a short
blink in the green and red LED's in the right hand side
of the display and you will hear a ready beep. The
lights will turn off immediately. This is an indication that
the camera is ready to capture. In general, if no light is
on the camera is ready.
