Fun finds Inside a Hasselblad H3Dii-39 Back

Someone here might find this interesting!

I'm repairing an old Hasselblad H3Dii-39 back, and after taking the internals out of the metal body cover, found some interesting ports:


Going to plug the USB port into a computer and see what shows up. It also looks like there is a ttrs/headphone jack that could be a serial interface.

The USB port is almost surely an engineering/support port for connecting the back to service equipment such as diagnostics or non-customer-facing firmware updates. It's almost surely not a USB port in the sense that a normal photographer would typically think of (a port through which one could connect to tether in order to take photos over USB).

Of course, this isn't my product and I could be wrong.

Most keen to find out what you discovered.

BTW, what work are you doing to the back? Very curious.
