Re: 645DF+ Camera Lockup Question
Is the 645DF+ camera lockup a real phenomena or does this happen to an odd camera body here and there?
If and when this happens what is the cause for this and is there a permanent fix? Should this be of concern?
Thx
It was more of an issue on the DF, a lot of time due to batteries, AA in the 6 pack holder. However some of the more modern LS lenses could also have issues.
The DF+ has seeming less issues, with latest firmware. You also need to verify which of your Phase/Mamiya etc AF lenses have firmware, as they also need up to current. Examples, the 28mm and 28mmLS, 75-150, the 105-210 all have lens firmware.
Issue, is you really need a dealer to upgrade the lens firmware. I used to use MAC group, but have been told they no longer work on this. So it would have to go to a Phase One dealer. Also, you can't upgrade the firmware on the DF+ without the V grip.
Enough issues, that it should really be done by a dealer.
