Title: Hasselblad H6D with Phocus Mobile in Bulb mode
Post by: Ghaag on October 06, 2018, 07:12:09 pm

I am trying to shoot in bulb mode with H6D wireless with Phocus mobile on iPhone, but I am unable to get it to work correctly.  Bulb works correctly when I trigger it from the camera but not when triggering from Phocus mobile.  In Phocus mobile it just fires the camera when I trigger it.  If anyone has experienced this, could you share the solution please.
Thanks in advance,
Greg

Here's what I got back from Hasselblad in case anyone else is struggling with this.

Hi Greg,

Thank you for contacting Hasselblad Customer Support.

Unfortunately, bulb mode does not work with Phocus Mobile.  R&D is aware and they are working on a fix for it.  You can uses T Mode(Time Mode) which is similar to Bulb Mode, except you don't continue to hold the shutter button.
