Title: Tethered capturing from Phocus with 132c and AFD
Post by: A.K. on October 30, 2008, 03:30:56 pm

Hello,
Is there a way to perform a remote capture from Phocus using 132C back and a Mamiya 645AFD body? The camera seems to be not recognized by the software: the back fires but the image is certainly black. In FlexColor the function works correctly — the camera also fires when the capture is performed.    
Looking forward to getting any advice.

Isn't this one of the older backs?  i was told that these older type backs (I have a V96C) are not supported by phocus as far as tethered capture goes...Check with Hasselblad again, yours might be a different story.

Not so, I Have a 384 (on an H2) working just fine with Phocus, not sure what the issue could be with the AFD.
