 SETTINGS

Apart from the more regularly used ISO/WB, AF, Flash but- tons and features accessible on the grip there are a number of other features available. These provide the integral finess- es that make the H5D a powerful and sophisticated tool to satisfy a variety of ­professional demands.

There are five functions: Self timer, Bracketing, Interval,

Settings and Drive.

Regular use can be simplified by using the shortcuts and button reassignment to access the menus.

One point to remember when making settings is that cer- tain options are only available when the relevant screen has been accessed. For example, in Self Timer the choice of ‘delay/mirror up’ or ‘mirror up/ delay’ is only available (by turning the rear scrollwheel - lower row on display) when the relevant function has been chosen (by turning the front scroll wheel - upper row on display)

MIRROR REMAINS UP

The self timer allows a delay in the activation of the shut- ter and a change in sequence of the mirror movement. Nor- mally the mirror is raised before the shutter is tripped creat- ing a pause between the two actions to minimize camera vibration. However, during this pause there will be no image in the viewfinder and no light metering available for any eventual exposure change. Therefore the Self timer func- tion can be set to a sequence where the delay is followed by the mirror being raised instead. Normally the mirror will instantly return after a capture but you can also choose a setting where the ­mirror ­remains raised.

As it provides a timed, remote shutter release function it can be used instead of a remote release cable/cord/device when split-second timing is not critical. The camera’s expo- sure settings (Manual or Auto) will be according to the light metering requirements just prior to the mirror being raised so, in very changeable lighting conditions, choose the mode most suitable if using long delays.
