• See “Selecting the Current Storage Medium” for details.
• Use the zoom-out button to zoom all the way up to the top level,
which shows all connected media, and then zoom in on the ap-
propriate medium and batch.
See “Navigating Media and Batches” for more information about
selecting media and batches in this way.
3. Tethered / Studio mode
is mode enables you to connect your camera directly to a
computer and to operate the system using Hasselblad FlexColor
soware and store images on a computer hard-disk.
• The main advantages with this mode are the almost limitless storage
capacity and being able to work on the images (with Hasselblad
FlexColor) on a large screen.
• The main disadvantage with this mode is the lack of mobility to
any great extent.
Using compact flash memory cards
When shooting to a compact-flash card, the H2D/CFH is completely
self-contained. No additional wires or connectors need to be at-
tached.
e H2D/CFH is shipped with a 1GB (or larger) compact-flash
card, which is able to hold over 20 shots. Lossless compression is
applied to the images, so the actual size of each capture can vary,
thereby affecting the total number of shots you can fit on the card.
You can purchase additional, possibly larger-capacity, cards and
change them as each card becomes full.
Note that the camera can copy the contents of its compact flash
card to an Imagebank – even when no computer is attached. This
enables you to backup your shots and then clear space on the card
to keep on shooting. See section on “Transferring Images”.
Inserting a card
1. Open the CF card slot cover on the sensor unit.
2. Behind the cover, you can see a slot for the card (A), possibly
with a card already inside, and a release button (B) below the
slot. If a card is already installed, then remove it as described
in “Removing a Card”, below.
3. Hold the compact-flash card so that the connector holes face
into the slot in the sensor unit, with the brand label facing in
the same direction as the sensor unit preview screen. Gently
press the card into the slot. If you encounter resistance, it
might be because you are holding the card backwards or
upside down. Experiment until you find the orientation that
allows the card to slide in easily.
4. When the card is able to drop very easily nearly all the way
into the sensor unit, then you are doing it right. Once you have
achieved this, press the card firmly into place until it sinks anoth-
er couple of millimeters into the sensor unit and is held fast.
5. Snap the slot cover shut again.
