synchronization and the self-timer. The size mark indicates the type of magazine in use. The film counter shows a number of
exposures taken. The winding knob advances the film and tensions the shutter, it also incorporates the exposure meter. The depth
of field indicator is coupled with the aperture ring of the lens. The focusing mount sets the lens to the correct distance. The
exposure value scale and exposure value lever select the exposure value. The aperture ring also sets aperture-speed combinations.
The release incorporates a catch to hold it down for time exposures. The signal in the side of the camera magazine indicates
whether the frame has been exposed or the film advanced.
Shooting with the 500C. From left to right: Wind the film transport; view and focus the image on the screen; set the exposure
value; select a suitable aperture-speed combination; press the release to expose.
Special Controls
FOR TIME EXPOSURES set the index of shutter speed ring to B (= brief time).
The green figures represent full seconds corresponding to the aperture value opposite them at a given exposure value. If you want to
use one of these apertures, note the time opposite it. Set the aperture separately by depressing the exposure value lever and turning
the aperture ring. (Leave the shutter speed ring at B.) Then expose for the time which was previously opposite that aperture value.
For time exposures always use the cable release. This screws into the centre of the body release on the camera body. For long time
exposures, where it is inconvenient to keep the release depressed, a time catch can be brought into action. The time catch is the small
lever with red spot in its top. Push this lever to the T position; the shutter will, on releasing, remain open until this catch is pushed
back to the O position.
THE AUXILIARY SHUTTER. The main function of this is to protect the film from light when focusing, changing lenses, etc. It can also be
used as a shutter at½5 sec. when working with special lenses lacking a shutter, in macrophotography and photomicrography. It has its
own flash contact in the side wall of the camera body. The flash cable is connected to this contact. The shutter is X-synchronized and
can therefore be used with electronic flash and normal "M"-type flash bulbs.
THE DELAYED-ACTION RELEASE built into the Synchro Compur releases any speed set from 1 sec. to 1/500 sec. with 8½ sec. delay. It
is brought into action by moving the green level on the left of the shutter to V while pressing the small protruding lock at the left at
the same time. Set the time catch on the camera release to T. After the self-timer exposure, reset the time catch to O, otherwise you
cannot transport the film.
FLASH SETTINGS. For X- or M-synchronization, set the green lever on the left part of the shutter to X or M, while depressing the small
protruding lock at the left. The cable bearer can be connected to the body of the camera. This is a hook with a ball at its end. The ball
is pushed into the recess beside the auxiliary shutter flash contact of the camera body. The protruding hook holds the flash cable to
secure it to the flash plug.
CHANGING THE WINDING KNOB. The film transport and shutter tensioning knob of the Hasselblad 500C is interchangeable and can be
replaced by a knob with exposure meter, or crank, etc.
Removing the knob is best done after winding it ready for an exposure. Push the catch on the rim of the knob away from the camera
body with the thumb of your right hand, while turning the knob anticlockwise. This action releases it from its bayonet base.
To attach the knob, position the circular red mark on its rim opposite the red triangular mark on the camera body. Then turn the knob
clockwise. When the triangular mark points to the solid red mark on the knob, the latter is secure.
RAPID EXPOSURE. To reduce the time between releasing and the instant of exposure - normally 1/10 sec. - to the absolute minimum,
press the quick release button which is situated just below and to the left of the film transport knob. (It does not need to be held
down.) This closes the camera shutter, opens the auxiliary shutter, lifts the mirror and sets the aperture to the pre-selected value. The
picture on the ground glass is no longer visible. On pressing the normal release button to take the picture, only the between-lens
shutter operates, cutting down the interval from releasing to the instant of exposure to 1/60 sec.
Once you have operated the quick release button, you must still release the shutter before you can turn the winding knob.
The quick release button is therefore useful for sports and action shots. The subject must of course be observed through a sports or
frame finder.
