Hasselblad H1D
Hasselblad H1D
The H1D can be used together with most ash units. Connection is either by the PC socket or by
the hot shoe if the unit is compatible (see note below).
The viewnder houses an integral ll-ash with a guide number of 12 and features OTF/TTL
ash control. This unit is capable of providing enough illumination for simple indoor shots at
shorter distances as well as many ll ash functions outdoors. Flash output can be adjusted
separately from ambient exposure for optimum control. Separate ash units can be used in
dedicated mode when connected to the hot shoe if the unit is compatible with the SCA3002
(Metz) system using a Hasselblad SCA3902 adapter. This provides a cable free link up for in-
formation transfer.
Automatic ash works equally well with digital capture as well as lm backs.
Flash synchronisation can be set to normal or rear (the beginning or end of an exposure).
Please see the relevant user manuals for information regarding separate ash units.
! As with all strobe/studio ash use, very particular attention should be taken to ensure cor-
rect connections and general handling practice. Potential dangers might increase when
cameras are also connected to electronic peripherals (computers, lighting units, etc) and
should diminish when IR and similar wireless ash release devices are used. Victor Hasselblad
AB can accept no responsibility whatsoever for accidents that might occur when Hasselblad
equipment is used in combination with third-party units of any description.
