4)Connect the included Sync Cable from the lens’ flash sync to either the connector on the camera back marked “C” or the the Mamiya Mounting plate.

5)If using a motorised camera,

connect the included Motor Cable to the connector on the right side of the camera back marked “M”.

6)If flash is used then connect the Flash Sync Cable (not included) from the strobes to the connector on the right side of the Phase One H 5 marked “F”.

7)Finally, connect one end of the included IEEE 1394 cable to any one of the empty ports on the newly installed card, or the built-in 1394 port. Connect the other end to the camera back. These cables can only be inserted one way and may require a little pressure to insert.

8)Please note: For the Mamiya RZ the camera must be set to take multiple exposures in order to use the Phase One H 5. The multiple exposure selector (M) is combined with the film back revolve switch (R).

Other Photographic Equipment

While the Phase One H 5 has been made as compatible as possible with photographic equipment, there are a few issues to be aware of:

1)When using the Phase One H 5 with a Hasselblad 555ELD, the setting on the front of the Hasselblad needs to be in the “Film” position.

2)When using the Phase One H 5 on a view camera use the “Two Shot Mode”. This means that the shutter release is activated twice. To shoot an image, release the shutter, reset it, and shoot again. The first shot wakes the camera up, and the second is the actual exposure. Alternatively, pressing the “Capture” button in the preview window will wake the camera up and then the shutter can be fired once to take a photo.

The camera will remain “awake” for 20 seconds or until the next capture.

3)When used on a Mamiya RZ67 Pro II the selector on the right side of the camera body must be in the “M” position.

4)The Phase One H 5 fully conforms with the ISO 10330 Standard for Photographic Strobe Systems; unfortunately not all strobe manufacturers comply with this standard. Check with the manufacturer of your strobe system to prevent damage.

5)The “Strobe Equipment” section of this guide provides a list of devices that have been tested with the Phase One H 5.
