FOCUS ASSIST
The camera also features a LED focus assist. Two arrowheads
are displayed to the right of the viewnder display (except for
lenses with a maximum aperture of f/6.7 or smaller). The
arrowheads provides conrmation of a precision focus setting
and are a useful aid when making a setting with eyesight only.
Manual focus setting
When the left arrowhead appears alone it means the focus
setting is too far beyond the chosen distance (the area framed
within the central zone in the viewnder) and when the right
arrowhead appears alone it means the focus setting is too
close. Focus is correct when both arrowheads appear together.
If the focus cannot be established, then both arrowheads ash.
Automatic focus setting
Focus is correct when both arrowheads are visible together.
Focus is incorrect if only one arrowhead is visible. If the focus
cannot be established, then both arrowheads ash.
Note!
The autofocus range on the HC 4/120 Macro lens can be
limited by a specic setting on the camera allowing for near
range, far range or full range. This information is displayed on
the grip display together with that particular lens, in the Sensor
Unit Display and in the Viewnder Display. Further information
can be found in the “H-system Lenses & H-system Lens
Accessories” booklet that accompanies each lens. The booklet
can also be downloaded from the Hasselblad website. Also, see
note here regarding HCD lenses!
Note!
HCD lenses were formulated for use with the smaller size
sensors in the H-series, resulting in a reduced coverage for the
larger sensors used in some models. So, if you use HCD
lenses, be aware of the restrictions (vignetting and diminished
quality at the edges). As notication of this situation, an auto
crop function is employed and an HCD crop icon appears on
the right hand side of the viewnder display when an HCD lens
is tted. When in Phocus, however, the auto crop function can be
turned off in Preferences if you wish.
Note!
Lens corrections can be applied when captures are imported
into Phocus. Guided by the information in the meta data
included with each individual capture, the DAC (digital lens
correction) tool uses lens-model specic calculations to adjust
for chromatic aberration, distortion and vignetting. Not only
model specications but also capture parameters are taken
into consideration for analysis. This extremely capable
renement of captures should not be overlooked when
processing les! See Phocus user manual for details.
Info!
For users who prefer manual focus control but would like the
benets of autofocus, one method is to set the AE-L button (or
any customizable button) to AF (Single) drive. The main subject
can then be centred and the AE-L pressed, to ensure correct
focus. The camera reverts immediately to manual focus control
when the button is released. Therefore, you can recompose
the picture without having to maintain pressure on the release
button in order to retain the newly automatically made focus
setting (AF-T can also be used).
Info!
The True Focus function can also be combined with other
autofocus modes for specic situations.
Info!
To expand your range of lenses, consider using a CF adapter
to allow you to use most of the lenses from the Hasselblad
V-system.
Note!
The autofocus function is not possible with certain combinations
of lenses and accessories. However, a warning is displayed
which disappears after conrmation.
