Hasselblad H3DII - CF Adapter; Specific-Lens Information

29
Automatic focus setting
Focus is correct when both arrowheads are visible together. Focus
is incorrect if only one arrowhead is visible. If the focus cannot be
established, then both arrowheads ash.
CF Adapter
e CF adapter is an optional accessory that allows virtually all
C type lenses from the V-system to be used on H-system camera
bodies. is provides an economical alternative way of extending
the lens range. e automatic focusing system in the H camera can
be used as a guide for manual focus setting. Light is measured at
full aperture with all lenses which produces aperture and shutter
speed information display in the camera for manual setting. With
CFE lenses, however, a preset aperture is automatically transferred
to the camera. Shutter cocking is manual with all lenses and is
swily carried out by an easily accessible lever.

HC 3.5 / 300 1
When using a tripod with a 300mm you should use the (remov-
able) tripod mounting bracket to provide optimum balance. is
is attached via a sleeve so that the camera body can be rotated
for landscape/portrait formats without altering the tripod head
position. e rotation is secured by a locking screw (A). Correct
90° orientation can be ensured by aligning white index markers
(B) for both landscape and portrait orientations.
HC 4 / 120 (Macro) 2
In addition to the metres/feet scale, the 120 mm lens also displays
magnication ratio scale (A). In the illustration, the scale shows a
focusing distance of 1.27 feet / 0.39 metres which in turn produces
a 1:1 (lifesize) magnication.
With the 120mm lens mounted on the camera, addition screens
will appear on the grip display when autofocus is chosen to signify
a focus limit setting. ree are available – Full scan, Innity scan
and Near scan – accessed by the rear control wheel. is time-saving
function is a form of presetting that restricts the scanning range of
the lens to prevent it searching across the whole focus scale. Simply
make a rough assesment of the approximate focusing distance and
then choose the most suitable of the three ranges. e lens will
then be able to nd the critical focus much faster.
