H4D
Capture storage
The H4D can store captures in two ways:
1. Untethered / Compact flash card mode
In this mode the H4D acts independently of other connections. Captures are stored on
the internal, removable compact-flash card.
• The main advantage with this mode is the freedom of cables and extra equipment.
• The main disadvantages with this mode in the field are the battery power capacity
and the size of the card's holding capacity.
Please note that the recommended types of CF cards are Sandisk Extreme-III/IV or
Lexar Professional 133x/233x. Other cards will work but offer a reduced capture
rate.
2. Tethered / Studio mode
This mode enables you to connect the H4D directly to a computer and to control it using
Hasselblad Phocus software and store captures on a computer hard-disk.
• The main advantages with this mode are the almost limitless storage capacity,
remote camera-control and being able to see the images (with Hasselblad Phocus)
on a large screen.
• The main disadvantage with this mode is the lack of mobility to any great extent.
Capture destination
The capture destination is the location to which new captures are saved and from which
you can browse using the camera controls. The capture destination is selected automati-
cally:
• When tethered, captures are always saved directly to the computer hard disk.
• When untethered, a compact-flash card is automatically selected.
