Making exposures
The Hasselblad SWC/M has a shutter release
button on top of the camera body. When you
make an exposure, press the shutter release
(14) smoothly, exerting steady pressure.
Note! The shutter must be cocked and the
magazine slide removed. The cable
release is attached to the cable release
socket (13).
Time exposure lock
The time exposure lock (15) has two settings:
О = Normal setting
T = Release button locked after being
pressed. Remains depressed until the lock is
returned to the O setting.
The T setting is used for time exposures when
the lens is set at B. The film cannot be advan-
ced with the crank (16) until the time exposure
lock is returned to the O setting.
This blocking function will not operate when
a cable release is attached.
Magazines for Polaroid film (Fig. 61)
When a magazine for Polaroid film is used
with the SWC/M, the film advance crank is
unable to make a complete turn.
Proceed as follows in this case:
Attach a magazine for Polaroid film.
Make an exposure.
Move the crank up and down with a pumping
movement (2 1/4 times) until it stops.
Note! The magazine for Polaroid film
must never be used with the SWC/M.
Tripod attachment
There is a tripod plate (38) on the base of the
Hasselblad SWC/M. The plate has two tri-
pod sockets (1/4" and 3/8").
