Hi All,
For a few weeks now I have been working with my new H5D-40. Apart from meeting my expectations (coming from a CFV-39) and the amazing True Focus while doing my first assignments with the camera, there's two things that are actually worse than my CFV-39:
1. the internal clock of the H5D goes wrong several hours after a few days. Within a week it's about four hours behind in time. This is with a charged battery attached,
2. the display on the back is even worse than my CFV-39. My H5D display is too dark and has some purple-pink colourshift. It's not DSLR quality, but the CFV-39 is about right for a quick check; the H5D display is so terrible, it's in a class of its own.
I'm still in doubt: are these two things common (with your H cameras?) or is my camera not within standards and should I go back to the store and risk that the thing has to go back to Hasselblad (and will be away for a few weeks)?
Thanks for answering,
Erik.
