2.9 Attaching the IQ Back
The IQ back is fully integrated with the camera body and functions as
a part of the whole camera system.
Ensure that the Phase One 645DF camera mirror is up and the shutter
is open when no digital back is attached.
When attaching the IQ back to the camera body the shutter will close
and the mirror come down.
First remove the cover. Next, ensure that the bottom part of the IQ back
is placed correctly in the lower locking mechanism on the back of the
camera body before the upper locking mechanism [A+B] is pressed
together. Failure to do this can cause an error with the camera body where
the shutter will continuously open and close. If this occurs, remove the
IQ back. Make sure the camera body is powered, press button [2] while
mounting the digital back, lock the mounted back by pressing [1].
Please be aware that the shutter should be in the correct starting
position (shutter open). If this is not the case, attach and remove the
IQ back again to make sure that the camera body gets in the correct
starting position.
Remove the IQ back by sliding the back lever [1], pushing in button [2],
and by gently pulling away the top of the back rst. Be careful with
the contacts and protective glass on the back. Your IQ back should
always be protected by its plate when it is not attached to the camera.
