Phocus does not include any corrections in the DNG output, i.e., the DNG output from Adobe DNG converter should be the same as the output from Phocus.

Fun with the Hasselblad 907x

Adobe DNG Converter can be driven from the command line, and thus scripted. Or at least it should be able to be ... The only documentation on this facility I can find is here:
I LOVE this camera but frustratingly, as always with Hasselblad, they always manage to mess things up.
Without an eye level EVF it's the most frustratingly pointless camera to me.
That is not to take away from the people who have it and enjoy it for what it is.
But IMO a total wasted opportunity.

G, what do you do to see the screen in such bright conditions?

Nothing special, really.
In bright sunlight, I wear a wide-brimmed hat. And I seek for positions that allow me to keep the camera in shade while I'm photographing the scene.
In extreme conditions, when working with a tripod, I also carry a focusing cloth same as I would for a view camera just in case.

Ok I had better get me a hat then by the sound of it, thanks. I was thinking of making a simple folding piece like, as I often am taking the image with the screen fully up. I have also seen a page detailing how to make a simple one. I might just try and do that.

I tried to make something like that. The problem with such a flip-out shade is that so much of the CFVII 50c control happens with the touch screen that it just gets in my way constantly ... Any time I need to change a setting, I have to take the shade off or risk making the wrong setting. This is, indeed, a problem with all cameras that rely primarily on touch screen operation and screen based controls.
Better, in my opinion, to just figure out how to see the screen clearly without it. My Tilley works just fine, either on my head or held in the hand to shade the screen when using a tripod.

Yes you are right Godfrey, I try not to use the touch screen but I guess I will have to adopt my way of taking images. I certainly am not getting rid of the 907X it is a really nice camera. I cannot think of any camera previously owned with no drawbacks. I just have to find ways of getting round them and being comfortable with the gear. Lets not talk of bags! I fear that none of my bags are right with the 907 .......

I agree with you, so many additional steps and hacking your way through it kinda takes the fun out of it.
Well it is sunny this morning so I experimented. Sun in front of me, so no problem, but I tilted the screen all the way up. I have also set screen brightness on full. This time I could see the subject without issue....I shall obviously need to be careful when the sun is behind me! Going to buy a small black Micro-fibre cloth and try that.

I'd recommend a 40x40 inch dark cloth as being a useful size; much smaller than that becomes too difficult to use easily. I use the one from B&H Photo for $63:
