Using the two-shot release procedure
Make sure that the shutter is open by using the Preview Lever (1) on the lens.
The shutter is open when the red dot is visible.
Enter Live View in the IQ3 Digital Back by
tapping on the contextual menu icon (A) on
the Rear Touch Screen, then press the Live
View icon (B).
Make any desired adjustments to Tilt, Shift
and Swing on the Cambo Technical Camera.
Adjust focus (2). If you want to review the depth of field, remember to close
the aperture down to the desired working value with the Aperture Selector (3)
on the lens.
Exit Live View on the Digital Back.
Adjust the aperture with the Aperture Selector (3) on the lens, if needed.
Adjust the shutter time with the Shutter Speed Selector (4).
The ISO value is adjusted on the IQ Digital
Back by pressing ISO on the home screen.
Close the shutter with the Preview Level (1),
so the red dot is hidden.
Spring-load the mechanical shutter by using the Shutter Cocking Lever (5) on
the lens.
Push the button (6) on the Wake-Up cable to alert the IQ Digital Back to get
the sensor ready for the capture, then slowly trigger the mechanical shutter
via the shutter release cable.
If the time span between pushing the Wake-Up button and the shutter release
is more than four seconds, the capture will be abandoned and the IQ Digital
Back will give you the error “Delay between TwoShot Pulses too long, should
be max. 4 sec.”
Remember that you need to spring-load the shutter again by using the Shutter
Cocking Lever (5) before every new capture.
If you have an automatic two-shot solution, like that one shown in the image
on the left, you do not need to wake up the sensor first as the integrated cable
solution will facilitate this action. Using an automatic two-shot solution
therefore allows you to disregard the “Wake-Up” step above.
The automatic two-shot solution is designed to wake the digital back sensor
automatically as you start to press the shutter release and then capture the
image when the shutter release is fully pressed. It is recommended to trigger
the shutter release slowly to give the digital back a bit of time to wake the
sensor.
