Mamiya 645 AFD Instruction Manual Companion for Digital Photography
Mamiya 645 AFD Instruction Manual Companion for Digital Photography Congratulations on your purchase of the Mamiya 645AFD. To make the transition from film to digital easier, we are including this digital companion that explains all of the new indicators you will see on the LCDs of your Mamiya 645AFD. Please read the owner’s manual before reading this companion.
Condition #1 This display will appear before the shutter has been released (Normal mode). At this point the Mamiya 645AFD will act as if there is a film magazine attached and will display shutter speed and aperture respectively. This indication will not appear under conditions 4b, 5 and 6. Condition #2 This will appear under normal shooting conditions after the shutter has been released (Capture mode). CaP db tells us the digital back is in the process of capturing an image.
Condition #4 After CaP db is displayed these indicators may appear (After Capture mode). It confirms the digital back is storing an image and that there are certain number of frames left in the memory of the digital back. This indicator shows the remaining frames left by displaying Stor 88 (where 88 is a number between 99 and 1). This will be displayed when the frames-to-go is less that 100. This display will blink for 3 seconds and can be cancelled by pressing any button.
Condition #6 When the digital back or host computer is busy, this indicator will be displayed. If the shutter release is pressed the -no- db indication (see condition 7) will be displayed and blink for 3 seconds. Condition #7 If the digital back is connected to the Mamiya 645AFD and the connection to the host computer is not installed, this will be displayed when the shutter release is pressed. This will also appear under the previous three conditions when the shutter release is pressed.
