Changing the magniﬁer 2

Mounted lenses with dioptre correction from +3 to -4 are available, and are easily inter-

changed as follows:

1. Remove the focusing hood from the camera and open it by lifting the lid.

2. Release the magniﬁer by pushing the catch to the right.

3. Push the magniﬁer halfway back down to its folded position.

4. Grip the lower edge of the magniﬁer plate (through the underside of the hood), and

pull ﬁrmly.

5. Keep the plate holder halfway down and insert the replacement lens plate with the

printed side up. Fold the hood down and replace on the camera.

Changing the focusing hood or viewﬁnder 1

To remove the focusing hood so as to attach any other viewﬁnder in the present Hasselblad

system (please note the PM90 is compatible with ﬁlm magazines only due to its shape),

proceed as follows:

1. Detach the digital back.

2. Fold down the focusing hood to protect it from damage and remove it by sliding it

to the rear in its guide slots.

3. Slide the replacement viewﬁnder into the slots and push it forward until it stops.

When fully inserted the viewﬁnder is retained in position by a spring-loaded catch until

you have reattached the magazine.

The focusing hood on the standard viewﬁnder has a built-in 4.5x magniﬁer for accurate focusing

and this can easily be changed to suit individual eyesight. The 503CW is equipped with an Acute-

Matte D focusing screen which produces an exceptionally bright and sharp image. The markings in-

dicate the format of the sensor for correct composition with digital capture. The Hasselblad system

oﬀers a range of alternative screens for various speciﬁc applications, each item easily and quickly

interchangeable without the need for special tools or facilities.

Changing the focusing screen 3, 4

1. Detach the magazine and viewﬁnder.

2. Push the two screen clips to the side into their recesses (ﬁg 3).

3. Place your hand over the screen, and invert the camera. The screen will now drop

into your hand (ﬁg 4).

4. Insert the replacement screen, ensuring that the smooth ﬂat side is uppermost and

the sharp-edged corners down. Ensure that all four corners of the screen are posi-

tively seated on their supports.

You need not return the screen latches. This is done automatically when the viewﬁnder

is replaced.

Should the screen refuse to drop out by itself, ensure that the camera is fully wound, re-

move the lens and check that the mirror is in the down position. Put a ﬁnger through the

lens mount and push gently on the screen from underneath, preferably with a soft cloth

between the screen and the ﬁnger.

Note

Do not immerse the screen in water, or use any kind

of cleaning ﬂuid.

Note

Do not use hot air to dry the screen if it becomes damp.
