Exposure Cable 503
Hasselblad 503CW plus Winder CW with Exposure cable 503 in place showing connection from Winder to adapter.
The camera choices that appear on the menu are automatically restricted to the adapter you have fitted. So, if you have have fitted an adapter specifically intended for Hasselblad models, then only Hasselblad models will appear. The following is a description of settings and action needed when working with the various Hasselblad models.
The exposure time set on a CF digital back sets the maximum length of exposure. The default setting is 1/8 sec and this is the setting that can be kept for all exposures from 1/8 sec. However, this setting should be changed in accordance with the time required if it exceeds 1/8 sec. Times of up to 32 seconds can be set.
If you prefer, you can connect the ‘Flash sync input cable’ between the lens PC socket and a CF digital back which allows you to retain the default setting of 1/8 second while still being able to use exposure times longer than 1/8 second. This method also allows the use of the B setting.
