The H2 is fitted with a Spherical Acute-Matte D viewfinder screen

for extreme brightness, clarity and even illumination. An optional

 

 

accessory screen with a grid pattern is also available.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To change a viewfinder screen, remove the viewfinder to access

 

 

 

 

 

the viewfinder screen. To remove the screen, place the tip of a

 

 

 

 

 

ballpoint pen or similar in the viewfinder screen removal lug

 

 

 

 

 

and pull upwards. To replace the screen, position the right side of

 

 

 

 

 

the screen in place so that it sits correctly in the recess. Place the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

tip of a ballpoint pen or similar in the viewfinder screen replace-

 

 

 

 

 

ment indentation and press downwards until the screen snaps

 

 

 

 

 

into position. Try to avoid touching either surface of the screen

 

 

 

 

 

with bare fingers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do not attempt to clean the screen by immersing it in water, or

 

 

 

 

 

use any kind of cleaning fluid. If the screen becomes damp, do not

 

 

 

 

 

use hot air to dry it. Use a soft cloth on the upper surface only. Seek

 

 

 

 

 

advice from an Authorized Hasselblad Service Center if the screen

 

 

 

 

 

becomes particularly soiled. Remember that particles or greasy

 

 

 

 

 

marks on the screen might impair the viewfinder image but have

 

 

 

 

 

no effect whatsoever on the recorded image.
