Depending on how you purchased the system, the XF Camera System may
be supplied ready for use with the IQ Digital Back already attached, and
consequently, there is no need to remove it prior to capture. If, however, you
would like to do so, for example, to use it with a technical camera, please
follow the instructions below.
Removing the IQ Digital Back from the XF Camera Body
1. Turn the Camera System o and remove any interface cables from the
Digital Back.
2. Push the IQ Digital Back lock slider toward the XF Camera Body while
simultaneously pressing the IQ Digital Back release button. Note that the
lock slider acts as a safety catch.
3. Tilt the IQ Digital Back slightly backward from the top and gently lift the
IQ Digital Back o the XF Camera’s guide rail.
Attaching the IQ Digital Back to the XF Camera Body
1. Gently place the mounting plate of the IQ Digital Back onto the bottom
guide rail of the XF Camera Body.
2. Push the back lock slider and press the release button simultaneously
to retract the back’s upper locking mechanism, and then push the IQ
Digital Back firmly onto the camera’s twin catches, using the bottom
guide rail as a pivot.
NOTE:
After removing the IQ Digital Back from
the XF Camera Body, remember to
protect the sensor by reattaching cover,
and to attach the back port cover on the
