CFV back

Good catch shakeshuck --- definitely some remnant pieces or "merge ghosts" left over from the blend --- visible along the left edge of the main line (line meaning the rope or cable holding to the boat). They look like black marks on the hull of the ship running parallel to the line on the lower half of the line itself, but the line also has double fuzzes and double edges near the upper third...
Got me. I used the original CFV on a SWC all the time. The only thing I can think of is that the IR filter was changed on the CFV-II with a better anti-reflective coating. Perhaps that caused some issue with the SWC lens being so close to the sensor and the angle of the light striking it. Other than that, the back is identical. I've used the CFV-II on a Mamiya RZ with a T/S lens with no problems. I'm stumped.

I am still trying to get a handle on how to best set up Helicon Focus to get the desired results. Not bad but not there yet.

Hi Jurgen:
I think we will need to do a co-op to help you out printing so many pictures

I've been wondering about this myself. It seems I have to hold the power button down on my CFV-II for about 5 seconds to get it to power up consistently. Same thing when I want to power it down....have to hold the button down for 4-5 seconds, but even this doesn't always get it to power down on the first try. Is there a trick to this?
Also, I haven't found anything in the CFV manual about the ''internal battery''. Can someone give me the scoop on this? Do I need to hook the camera up to my Mac Pro to charge this up somehow? Could this have anything to do with the power up/power down timing of my CFV?
I guess I'm just used to the usual Canon/Nikon digital camera or DSLR where I just push the power button for less than a second and it powers up or powers down, without hardly thinking about it.
I had convinced myself that this was just another "quirk" of the Hasselblad. As an owner of European motorcycles (BMW and formerly Ducati), I'm used to quirky mechanical/electrical pieces of equipment.
Also, I haven't hooked my camera up to the computer to install any firmware....is this something I should do? Since it's only about a month old, I figured it should have the latest firmware.

if you download the latest flexcolor, the next time you hook up the back, it will allow you to update the firmware.
if you leave the back hooked up for 12 hrs, it is supposed to recharge the internal battery. if it does not hold a charge, there is a funky component that needs factory replacement.
firewire will also power the back and charge the internal battery, but usb will require the external battery.
i always have to hold down the power switch a few seconds...probably a safety
device.
