Attaching and removing the viewﬁnder

1 2 While holding the viewﬁnder at a slight angle and resting it on the top of the camera, slide the viewﬁnder forward until the front locating pin is in position in the recess in the front edge of the viewﬁnder screen aperture on camera body. Press the rear part of the viewﬁnder ﬁrmly downwards until it clicks into place.

Ensure that both sides of the viewﬁnder are seated correctly and that it has been ﬁrmly attached. Failure to do so could cause an intermittent malfunction if the databus interface connections between the viewﬁnder and camera body are not positively secured.

To remove, grasp the viewﬁnder in the right hand and while depressing the viewﬁnder release button, lift the rear of the viewﬁnder up and away from the camera body.

Eyepiece adjustment

No corrective lenses are needed to adjust the eyepiece to suit most requirements. The diopter range is from -4 D to +2.5 D. Eyeglass wearers can rapidly and accurately change the settings according to whether they wish to wear eyeglasses for viewing or not.

Personal eyepiece adjustments can be carried out by pointing the camera at the sky or similar smoothly toned area. While holding the camera in your left hand, you can with your right thumb turn the adjustment wheel until the markings on the viewﬁnder screen reach the optimum sharpness for your eyesight.

If you normally wear eyeglasses for distance viewing and intend to wear them for camera use then do not remove them for the above procedure. If, on the other hand, you prefer to remove your eyeglasses for camera work, then repeat the above procedure without wearing your eyeglasses.

Rubber eye cup

Two rubber eye cups are available for the H2. The one supplied is suitable for users who do not intend to use eyeglasses when photographing. The second shorter eye cup is for those who either prefer to position their eye further from the viewﬁnder and those who wish to wear eyeglasses.

The eye cups can be rapidly changed by a Hasselblad Authorized Service Center.
