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 flash.
CF Adapter
The CF adapter is an optional accessory that allows virtually all
C type lenses from the V-system to be used on H-system camera
bodies. This automatically expands the potential lens range for H
cameras by more than a dozen different focal lengths. The auto-
matic focusing system in the H camera can be used as a guide for
manual focus setting. Light is measured at full aperture with all
lenses which produces aperture and shutter speed information
display in the camera for manual setting. With CFE lenses, how-
ever, a preset aperture is automatically transferred to the camera.
Shutter cocking is manual with all lenses and is swiftly carried
out by an easily accessible lever.
Specific-lens information
HC 3.5 / 300
When using a tripod with a 300mm you should use the (remov-
able) tripod mounting bracket to provide optimum balance. This
is attached via a sleeve so that the camera body can be rotated
for landscape/portrait formats without altering the tripod head
position. The rotation is secured by a locking screw (A). Correct
90° orientation can be ensured by aligning white index markers
(B) for both landscape and portrait orientations.
HC 4 / 120 (Macro)
In addition to the metres/feet scale, the 120 mm lens also displays
magnification ratio scale (A). In the illustration, the scale shows a
focusing distance of 1.27 feet / 0.39 metres which in turn produces
a 1:1 (lifesize) magnification.
With the 120mm lens mounted on the camera, addition screens
will appear on the grip LCD when autofocus is chosen to signify a
focus limit setting. Three are available – Full scan, Infinity scan and
Near scan – accessed by the rear control wheel. This time-saving
function is a form of presetting that restricts the scanning range of
the lens to prevent it searching across the whole focus scale. Simply
make a rough assesment of the approximate focusing distance and
then choose the most suitable of the three ranges. The lens will
then be able to find the critical focus much faster.
HC 3.5 – 4.5 / 50 – 110 Zoom lens
