User Manual - Hasselblad.jp

The CFVII is also designed to also fit most Hasselblad V model cameras. Please check
the connectivity diagram in this manual for further details, including the possibility
of connectivity to large format cameras.

Bear in mind that the sensor is 37mm x 37mm in size. This results in a smaller image
(compared to the approx. 60mm x 60mm format produced with a film magazine)
and the markings on the focusing screen should be used as the guide for composition.
This smaller format also in effect ‘lengthens’ the focal length of the lens in use
with a lens factor of 1.5. So, for example, a 50mm lens together with the digital capture
unit will produce a similar apparent perspective that a 75 mm lens would produce
if the full 60mm x 60mm format was used.

The 503CWD and CFVII are electronic devices and consequently attention to power
access is vital. When working untethered it is therefore important to plan either battery
charging or battery replacement to ensure continued workflow.
Likewise, image storage is limited, particularly when using flash cards and appropriate
steps should also be taken when planning a shoot.
External storage is accomplished by FireWire connection to a separate hard disk or
a computer.
•
When attaching and removing the back, pay particular attention to the image sensor
area. The sensor itself is covered and therefore protected by the glass IR filter but
take great care when handling. If you need to clean the filter, see later section for
specific details. When storing separated from the camera, always ensure you have
replaced the protective cover.
If you scratch or mark the filter in any way, it will show up on every shot. Replacements
are expensive so treat the glass surface with at least as much care as you would a
lens.
The sensor itself is not accessible for any kind of cleaning or maintainence by a user.
Do not attempt any such action as you will almost certainly damage it irreparably.
As is the case with all electronic devices pay extra care when working in damp
environments and avoid damp conditions for storage.
