H4D
Capture storage
The H4D can store captures in two ways:
1. Untethered / Compact flash card mode
In this mode the H4D acts independently of other connections. Captures are stored on
the internal, removable compact-flash card.

and the size of the card’s holding capacity.
Please note that the recommended types of CF cards are Sandisk Extreme-III/IV (or
better) or Lexar Professional 133x/233x (or better). Other cards will work but offer a
reduced capture rate.
2. Tethered / Studio mode
This mode enables you to connect the H4D directly to a computer and to control it using
Hasselblad Phocus software and store captures on a computer hard-disk.
