PC-CONNECTOR
A PC connector for non TTL-
flash synchronisation is located
on the left side of the body. It is
protected by a captive rubber
plug.
ACCESSORY CONNECTION
There are two accessory-
retaining screw threads (M5) as
well as a databus connector on
the left hand side of the camera
body, protected beneath a cover.
The cover can be removed by
firstly lifting the left hand edge a
little and then sliding the cover to
the left, as in the illustration.
REMOVING AND ATTACHING A
VIEWFINDER OPTIONAL ACCESSORY
To remove, grasp the viewfinder in the right hand and while
depressing the viewfinder release button, lift the rear of the
viewfinder up and away from the camera body.
To attach, hold the viewfinder at a slight angle and rest it
on the top of the camera. Slide the viewfinder forward until
the front locating pin is in position in the recess in the front
edge of the viewfinder screen aperture on camera body.
Press the rear part of the viewfinder firmly downwards until
it clicks into place.
Ensure that both sides of the viewfinder are seated correctly
and that it has been firmly attached and locked into posi-
tion. Failure to do so could cause an intermittent malfunc-
tion if the databus interface connections between the view-
finder and camera body are not positively secured. Avoid
lifting the camera by the viewfinder alone.
EYEPIECE ADJUSTMENT
No corrective lenses are needed to adjust the eyepiece to suit most requirements.
The diopter range is from -5 to +3.5D. Eyeglass wearers can rapidly and accurately
change the settings according to whether they wish to wear eyeglasses for view-
ing or not.
Personal eyepiece adjustments can be carried out by pointing the camera at the
sky or similar smoothly toned area. While holding the camera in your left hand, you
can with your right thumb turn the adjustment wheel until the markings on the
viewfinder screen reach the optimum sharpness for your eyesight.
If you normally wear eyeglasses for distance viewing and intend to wear them for
camera use then do not remove them for the above procedure. If, on the other
hand, you prefer to remove your eyeglasses for camera work, then repeat the
above procedure without wearing your eyeglasses.
RUBBER EYE CUP
Two rubber eye cups are available for the H5X. The one sup-
plied is suitable for users who do not intend to use eyeglass-
es when photographing. The second shorter eye cup is for
those who either prefer to position their eye further from
the viewfinder and those who wish to wear eyeglasses.
The eye cups can be rapidly changed by a Hasselblad Autho-
rized Service Center.
