Power Management and Shutter Latency
The IQ CCD is put to sleep to reduce power consumption when it is not
in use. The IQ needs to wake up before shooting and the timing of this
wake up signal is referred to as the Latency.
The Phase One and Mamiya 645 camera body response time is
independent of the shutter latency setting so it is therefore recommended
to keep the latency on the Normal (default) setting, as this will ensure a
longer battery life.
Studio Flash Sync on the Camera Body
A ash sync lead should be connected to the camera body when using
the IQ back on Phase One 645DF/DF+.
Always use a ash cable and/or equipment that provides grounding for
the ash.
Image Orientation
The CCD in the IQ back is positioned in a landscape orientation.
However, the IQ back has an internal sensor that detects when it
has been rotated. Thus, when the camera is rotated and an image is
captured in portrait position the image will appear correctly oriented on
the LCD and in the Capture One application.
