Flash / Strobe

The CFV can be used together with most studio or portable units.

When attached to a 503CW, the TTL function is also available.

Most ﬂash units are suitable for use with the CFV. However, for the sake of safety, care should be taken when using studio ﬂash units (strobe) and tethered to a stationary computer.

Portable units

Attach the ﬂash sync cable to the lens (or camera body in the case of a Hasselblad 200 series model) and make the appropriate settings according to the unit.

This also applies when using studio units when:

a)tethered to a computer not connected to a regular electricity supply system.

or

b)tethered to an Imagebank or laptop computer running on batteries.

With studio type ﬂash units (strobe) and tethered to a computer

If the CWD is tethered to a computer that is connected to a regular electricity supply system as well as a studio ﬂash/strobe unit that is also connected to a regular electricity supply system/generator system, then make the following connections instead:

a)Connect the ﬂash sync input cable from the sync contact (PC connector) on the lens to the ﬂash sync IN terminal on the back.

b)Connect the ﬂash sync output cable from the ﬂash sync OUT terminal on the back to a regular ﬂash sync cable that is connected to the unit.

TTL function – 503CW only

A TTL function is only available with the 503CW. The reﬂective characteristics of the digital sensor are diﬀerent to ﬁlm surface characteristics for which the TTL function was originally designed. However, by changing (in eﬀect, ‘tricking’) the setting, TTL exposures can be made. Proceed as follows:

Move the ISO selector on the 503CW so that is becomes approximately 1⅔ f/stop higher than the ISO setting on the CFV. Therefore, for example, when the back is set at 50ISO, the ‘ﬁlm speed setting’ on the camera should read 160ISO, and so on. Testing for the most suitable compensation that suits you is recommended.

See appropriate manuals for connection details regarding the various units and adapters.
