The process is simple, quick and enables images to be viewed with con-dence. Many higher level monitors have internal calibrating software that works with professional calibration devices for ultimate accuracy.
122.0  The 645DF+ Camera and IQ2 Digital Back SystemThe Phase One Camera system is created to provide as much exibility and openness as possible.

Please consult your local dealer about the dierent Phase One or third party solutions if extra equipment is needed. Securing the operational time of a camera and digital back solution is a critical concern for professional photographers. To be as safe as possible, consult your dealer to get information on the best solution.  Most uptime solutions provided by Phase One can be purchased after acquiring the back or camera. The 645DF+ camera and SK LS lenses have a warranty of 1 year or 100,000 shutter actuations, whichever comes rst. Phase One AF/MF lenses have a warranty of 1 year in Classic or 3 years in Value Added. Refer to the Warranty Brochure, which is shipped with the with the Camera System.
152.4  Charging the Batteries for the IQ2 Digital BackCharge the batteries as soon as the camera system has been unpacked. The Value Added roller case is delivered with two 7.2 volt Lithium-Ion batteries and a duo-charger.Although only one battery can be used in the IQ back at a time, it is recommended to charge both batteries fully before you start. Always keep a battery in the IQ back even when shooting tethered to a computer via a FireWire or USB connection. (Go to page 84 for more details about charging the battery while tethered to a computer). The battery charger can adapt to voltages within a range of 110 to 250 volts.It comes with an international set of power adaptors (located in the suitcase utility compartment). Please select the appropriate one that ts your outlet and slide it in from the top to mount it in place securely. Connect the unit to the outlet and charge the batteries (approximately 2.5 to 3 hours).After the rst initial charge, the batteries can be charged one at a time.Purchasing Extra BatteriesThe Phase One IQ back comes with two batteries. Phase One recommends the Canon BP 915 (with more than 2500 mAh) if you need to purchase extra batteries.Some third party batteries may not t into the digital back’s battery compartment due to dierences in the tolerances. Do not try to force a battery into the compartment. When pressing the battery release button it should slide in without being hindered.Warning!• Only use the Charger to charge the specied batteries• Do not allow charger to get wet or get exposed to moisture• Keep the Charger out of reach of children• Once charging is completed, unplug the charger from power source• Only use the original mains adaptor 12V DC or car lead• Never apply excessive force when connecting or disconnecting a battery or contact plate.• Keep all contacts clean.• Do not force down any of the contacts.• Do not short-circuit the contacts.• Never store the battery connected to the charger for an extensive period of time.• Do not expose to excessive heat or naked ame.• Do not dismantle or carry out any alteration to the product• Do not attempt to eat or swallow the battery

172.6  Sleep ModeThe camera’s power is switched on when the shutter release mode selector is set to S, C or M.UP. In order to prevent the camera’s batteries from discharging, sleep mode is automatically entered if no operations are performed for a specic period of time while the power is ON (with exposure metering status maintained).In sleep mode, operating the shutter button or a function setting button restores power ON status.In sleep mode, the external LCD screens are not active, only the marks shown in the gure are displayed. (These marks appear in program AE mode.)1. Battery life of the originally supplied batteries is dependent on storage conditions.2. Blots and ngerprints on battery terminals may cause loose connection and corrosion. Wipe them o before loading the batteries.3. It is advised to carry spare batteries in remote or foreign locations.4. Battery performance decreases in low temperatures. Keep them warm when in cold climates or locations. External battery case PE401 is available as an optional accessory.5. Store the batteries in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight.6. Remove the batteries from the camera body when they will not be used for a long time.7. Replace the batteries with new ones as soon as they are exhausted. Liquid leakage from the battery may damage the camera.8. Read the warnings on the batteries for their handling.For the purpose of the descriptions and explanations provided in these instructions, it is assumed that the camera’s power is on.

19Attach a Leaf Shutter LensLeaf shutter lenses are equipped with an internal shutter. Leaf shutter lenses are capable of high shutter speeds 1/800 sec. or 1/1600 on IQ Series backs with ash synchronization, which is particularly useful for ll-in ash photography in bright ambient shooting conditions. When a leaf shutter lens is attached and the leafshutter is used and the letters LS will appear in the main LCD screen. 2.8  Adjusting the StrapPut the neck strap through the mounts and secure it to the buckle as illustrated. After attaching the strap, pull it and ensure it does not loosen at the buckle.
202.9  Attaching the IQ2 BackThe IQ back is fully integrated with the camera body and functions as a part of the whole camera system. Ensure that the Phase One 645DF+ camera mirror is up and the shutter is open when no digital back is attached. When attaching the IQ back to the camera body the shutter will close and the mirror come down. First remove the cover on the IQ back and 645DF+ camera. Next, slide forward the lever [1] and push in button [2],  and ensure that the bottom part of the IQ back is placed correctly in the lower locking mechanism on the back of the camera body before the upper locking mechanism is pressed together. Failure to do this can cause an error with the camera body where the shutter will continuously open and close. If this occurs, remove the IQ back. Make sure the camera body is powered and press button while mounting the digital back. Please be aware that the shutter should be in the correct starting position (shutter open).  If this is not the case, attach and remove the IQ back again to make sure that the camera body gets in the correct starting position. Remove the IQ back by sliding forward the lever [1], pushing in button [2], and by gently pulling away the top of the back rst.  Be careful with the contacts and protective glass on the back. Your IQ back should always be protected by its plate when it is not attached to the camera.12

30P: Program AE - The aperture and shutter speed are determined automatically for the optimum exposure, according to the ambient light conditions. This auto mode is best suited for general photography or for novice photographers, as it leaves the user free to concentrate on framing and capturing the subject.Av: Aperture priority AE  - Set the desired aperture and the camera selects the correct shutter speed. Use this mode to control depth of eld.Tv: Shutter priority AE  -  Set the desired shutter speed and the camera selects the correct aperture. Use this mode to stop motion. M: Manual mode - Set this mode when you want to use special combinations of the aperture and shutter speed. 4. Exposure metering mode is automatically set to average/spot exposure metering before exposure metering is performed. There are three exposure metering modes: In the A mode the average brightness in the entire frame is measured with emphasis on the center of the frame. The brightness at a specic spot in the center of the frame is metered in the S mode. The A-S mode automatically switches between these two modes depending on the contrasts in the picture. NOTE: When a polarizing lter is used, ensure that a circular polarizing lter(C-PL) is used. The correct exposure cannot be obtained with a normal(linear) polarizing lter (PL).PAvTvMXCFC1C2C3

433.10  Flash PhotographyThe Phase One 645DF+ is equipped with a horizontal focal-plane metal shutter and it is also compatible with leaf shutter lenses. The focal-plane shutter provides higher shutter speeds than that of leaf (central) shutter lenses. Focal-plane shutters allow you to shoot fast enough to freeze moving subject matter. Leaf shutter lenses will allow faster shutter synchronization to ash, making it ideal to freeze subject movement when using strobe lighting.The focal-plane shutter method allows for shutter speeds of up to 1/4000 sec. When shooting at higher speeds e.g. 1/500 sec. the two shutter blades are moving in parallel creating a small slit allowing a small fraction of light to reach the sensor area of the digital back. When using this type of shutter it is not possible to achieve ash synchronization greater than 1/125 sec.A leaf shutter will make it possible to achieve faster shutter and ash sync speeds. An IQ Series back can achieve a maximum shutter speed of 1/1600 second. Do not use leaf shutter speeds above 1/1600 sec.1. A grip type ashgun or a strobe (with electric contacts other than X contact) can be operated with the Phase One 645DF+ by connecting a sync cord into the camera’s sync terminal. (See the note in the bottom left corner of the page about ash units designed exclusively for other camera makes.)2. Turn the exposure mode setting dial to “X” (1/125 sec.) or M (manual). When M (manual) is selected, turn the front dial and set the shutter speed to 1/125 sec. or slower.3. Turn the rear dial to set the aperture, and then press the shutter button to  take a picture.In addition to its standard ash sync system, the Phase One 645DF+ features TTL (through the lens), o the lm (OTF) and electronic ash exposure metering. NOTICE: This camera’s synchro contact is an X contact.Using ashes designed exclusively for other camera manufacturers in the hot shoe may damage the camera’s internal mechanisms. In this situation, use an o-camera ash bracket and connect a sync cord to the camera’s synchro terminal.When using ashes with a ash duration of 1/500 sec. or longer, set the shutter speed to 1/30 sec. or less.
44Phase One 645DF+ features TTL (Through The Lens), OTF (O The Film) and electronic ash exposure metering. A ash sensor located inside the camera body reads the ash light reected o the surface of the CCD at the moment of exposure. The sensor is connected via the Phase One 645DF+’s dedicated hot-shoe to a shoe or handle-mount style Metz ash unit via the Metz SCA 3952 TTL Adapter. Maximum ash speed is 1/125 sec. when the focal plane shutter is used, making daytime synchronization possible. The ISO of the ash is automatically set through the TTL connection from the camera’s lm magazine; any adjustment to this is instantly recognized after the setting is locked and the shutter release is half-pressed. To utilize the TTL ash feature with all TTL-operable Metz ash units, a Metz SCA 3952 module is required. Please see the chart for capability and/or additional adapters that may be necessary.The resulting ash exposure automation determines correct ash exposure and automatically adjusts the output of the ash. It also automatically corrects for exposure compensation normally required when using lters, close-up bellows or extension tubes.1. Mount the SCA3952 adapter onto the Metz ash, insert fully into the camera’s hot shoe, and then tighten with the locking knob[A].2.

494.0  Introduction to the IQ2 Series Digital BackSystem OverviewThe Phase One IQ2 Series Digital Back is designed to t on the Phase One 645DF+ as well as several other brands or models of medium format cameras.The IQ2 Series include three dierent models; the IQ280, IQ260 and the IQ260 Achromatic. The backs incorporate 80 and 60-megapixel sensors for the IQ280 and two IQ260 models repectively. They also feature USB3 and FireWire 800 connections facilitating the fastest possible tethered image transfers speeds. All three models have a 3.2 inch touch display that features 1.15 megapixel resolution. The wide format display allows for a full 4:3 aspect ratio VGA resolution image next to histogram, highlight warning, focus mask, File Info, and touch controls. This touch screen display is complemented by Phase One’s intuitive 4-button navigation.Phase One’s patent-pending Sensor+ technology, built into the Phase OneIQ2 Series models, supports a variety of shooting conditions. Images can be captured at  full resolution or, using Sensor+ mode, switch instantly to capture images with 20 megapixels* resolution at 4 times higher sensitivity, up to ISO 3200. The following section deals with generic features that are available in all three IQ2 Series digital back models. * The IQ280 produces 20 megapixel resolution and both the IQ260 and IQ260 Achro-matic produce 15 megapixel resolution when the Sensor + mode is activated.
501.2.2.3.4.4.1  Quick Start (shooting untethered)1. Connect an IQ2 digital back to the camera and install the focusing screen if applicable.2. Charge the batteries (See page 16) then insert them into the camera. 3. Insert a CompactFlash card into the IQ2 Back.4. Switch on the power to the back and camera and select a drive mode.5. Choose an exposure mode.6. Select a focus mode on the camera body and lens if applicable.7. Set the date and time. (See page 25).8. Set the ISO and White Balance. (See page 28).9. After shooting, transfer images into Capture One software from the CF card using a card reader.10. Editing images in Capture One and output as required.5.6.4.
514.2  General Hardware SetupPowering up the IQ2 backAfter an IQ2 back is connected to a camera body, insert a battery and it will automatically turn on. The back is switched on/o by pressing the power button located below the IQ2 back display. ISO SettingsThe IQ280 back has an ISO spectrum from ISO 35-800. The IQ260 has a 50-800 spectrum and the Achromatic back has a ISO range from 200-3200.  The default ISO setting for 50 for IQ280 and IQ260 models and 200 for the Achromatic.An ISO rating can be selected from the menu system (when untethered) or in the Capture Tool in Capture One Pro software (when tethered).Sensor+ technology, built into the Phase One IQ Series models, expands the ISO range from 140 to 3200 at 20 megapixels resolution for the IQ280. The IQ260 models have a Sensor+ ISO range from 200 to 3200 at 15 megapixels resolution. Power Management and Shutter LatencyThe IQ2 back’s CCD needs to be constantly cleared of data from the previous capture before the next exposure can be taken. This process requires some power consumption. The default setting is Normal Latency, which should remain unchanged under all ‘normal’ shooting scenarios. Only change the setting to Zero Latency if you work on technical cameras, large format cameras or certain manual cameras in special situations. Double Exposure ProtectionIt is not possible to accidentally double expose an image by capturing one shot quickly after another when an IQ2 back is used on cameras such as the Phase One 645DF+/DF/AF, Mamiya 645DF/AFDIII, Hasselblad 555 ELD (DIG mode), Hasselblad H or Contax 645. The electronic communication with the body ensures that the IQ2 back is ready before allowing release of the next shot. However, users of other camera bodies that do not use the electronic interface from the IQ2 will have to wait for the ready beep signal before releasing the next shot.
524.3  Indicator LightsIQ2 Series digital backs feature two main red and green LEDs located below the bottom left corner of the screen. When the IQ2 back is activated, the green and red LEDs will ash shortly and a beep will sound to indicate that it is ready to capture. In general, if the LEDs are not illuminated the camera is ready.A red indicates that the IQ2 back is writing to the storage media, and therefore the buer has not been emptied. When capturing an image the green LED will blink rapidly to indicate that the IQ2 back is busy exposing the CCD or moving data from the CCD. A continuous green light indicates that the backlight of the display is dimmed but the camera is still ready to shoot. The IQ2 back also has an orange light to indicate that the battery is charging when the back is connected to a computer via a FireWire or USB connection. (Go to page 84 for more details about charging the battery whilst tethered to a computer).Additional Red LEDThere is an additional red LED indicator located next to the CF card slot (under the cover). It is assigned to indicate CF card activity only.  Do not remove a CF card from the card slot when this red LED is on. Removing a CF card whilst the red LED is on can damage the formatting of the card, and images or data might be lost or corrupted.4.4 IndicatorsLong exposure time indicator: An exposure time indicator will appear on the IQ2 screen if the camera is set to expose for more than 2 seconds.  The indicator will count the seconds while the shutter is open. This indicator is useful for timing long bulb exposures. Long exposure black reference: In order to capture noise free long expo-sures Phase One digital backs needs to capture a black reference after each capture. This black reference requires the same amount of time as the exposure itself. A night symbol and a counter counting down the time left for black refer-ence capture to complete will appear at the bottom of the screen while the black reference is being captured. This function is performed automatically.
534.5  Tethered and Untethered OperationsUntethered: An IQ2 Series back can be operated as a fully portable battery powered unit. Image les are shot and transferred to a CompactFlash card which is inserted in the CF-card slot on the left side of the camera back.Tethered: Remember to always keep a battery in the IQ2 back even when shooting tethered to a computer via a FireWire or USB3 connection. When operating tethered, image les can be shot to a CompactFlash card or transferred directly to the assigned capture folder in the Capture One ap-plication on the computer hard disk. (Go to page 84 for more details about charging the battery whilst tethered to a computer).Driver Set-upFind out more on Installation and Activation of software on page 9 and 10 of this User Guide. There is no specic program set-up. Check the Capture One User Guide for recommended hardware. Eventual rmware announcements will be available on our website, and in our newsletters.ConnectingThe maximum length of a compatible FireWire cable is 4.5 meters. Longer cables might require a third party power solution or a FireWire hub. IQ2 Series backs match the FireWire 800 standard.Plug the FireWire 800 cable into the IQ2 unit and into back of your Mac or Windows PC. (It is not recommended to use a FireWire port on the front of a computer as it can be less stable). Capture One will automatically recognize the IQ2 back and settings shared. (Read more on shooting tethered in the Capture One software manual). N.B: IQ2 backs are compabile with FireWire 400. Please order a Phase One FireWire 800 to 400 cable 4.5M. Part No: 50300164
54Tethered Operations Continued The display on an IQ2 Series back can be either be turned o while shooting tethered or set to display the images while they are shot, just as if shooting untethered. It is also possible to enlarge a section of an image on the IQ2 screen to help check focus of the current and upcoming captures.An IQ2 back will default to its untethered mode when the FireWire 800 or USB3 cable is removed in its Auto Storage setting. Captured image les will be stored on a CompactFlash card, and the unit’s battery will provide power.  (The IQ2 back can be forced to shoot to either CompactFlash or via a FireWire 800 cable to a computer. Find out more on the Storage Mode on page 85). Online SupportFor more information on shooting tethered with Capture One please consult the online user guide available in the Capture One Help menu or go direct to http://help.phaseone.com/en/CO7/Capture/Tethered-Shooting.aspx
554.6  CompactFlash Card UsageIt is important to follow a few simple guidelines to help avoid loss of data when working with CompactFlash cards, card readers and digital cameras. Phase One recommends that you test-drive all new CompactFlash cards including the one that comes with your IQ back. By performing an initial test to verify that the capture les are stored properly on the card and can be accessed on a computer you will avoid unpleasant surprises on location or when you return from a job. CompactFlash cards are manufactured by other suppliers and Phase One cannot guarantee that the cards are not defective.Inserting and Ejecting on the IQ2 BackThe CompactFlash card is inserted in the hidden slot located under the cover on the left hand side of the IQ back.Insert the CompactFlash card with the brand label facing the display end of the digital back as shown in the image.The cover can be closed when the CompactFlash card is fully inserted.To eject the card push the small button above the card once, and an ejecting pin will come out. Pushing this pin all the way back in will eject the card.Microdrives are not recommended for use with IQ backs.
564.7  Secure Storage System (3S)You can always be sure that your data is safe when working with memory cards in a Phase One IQ2 back. The Phase One Secure Storage System (3S) provides the industry’s safest memory card handling. The 3S technology automatically checks your card’s le structure every time it is inserted into the IQ2 back. If the disk check function nds any errors, it will prevent usage of the card until these are corrected or the card is formatted.How does 3S work?A complete disk check for a valid le structure is performed as soon as a card is inserted into the IQ2 back. Lower gigabyte capacity cards will load quicker than high capacity versions. It is not recommended to turn o  the Check Disk function. If you want to turn it o go to Menu>Check Disk. Disk Check Summary3S technology is a safe storage system integrated into the IQ2 back and is much more rugged than anything else seen in the industry. No other digital back or DSLR camera has this level of storage security.Benets include:• There is no need to format a card on a computer• Damaged or incorrectly formatted cards will be detected immediately. IQ2 backs also have the ability to reformat and correct these cards.• Ejecting a card while it is writing a session will not necessarily damage the le structure of the entire CompactFlash card. Only the image being written and the images in the buer can be damaged.
574.8  Formatting your Memory CardMost CompactFlash cards are preformatted and ready for use in the IQ backs. However, Phase One recommends that all cards should be formatted in the IQ back to ensure their optimum performance. Memory card formatting is done in either FAT 16 or FAT 32 depending on card size. (IQ backs support CompactFlash cards formatted in both FAT 16 and FAT 32).Using CompactFlash Cards in a Card Reader A card will be mounted as a removable drive on a computer after it has been inserted into the card reader and connected to a Mac or PC.  Windows and Mac OS X will have the required drivers for the CF card reader. For information on how to import les to Phase One Capture One, please consult the Capture One online user guide available under Capture One Help in the Help Menu.Warning!Ejecting a card or removing the battery while the IQ2 back is still writing (when the red LED is on) will cause images that are not written to the card to be permanently lost or damaged. Do not bend or ex your Compact-Flash card. Please keep the card away from moisture, grit and sand. Use the supplied CompactFlash card case as a storage container when not in use.
585.0  Navigating the IQ2 User Interface and Menu System Home ScreenThe IQ2 Home Screen is the rst view users will see as soon as the back is switched on. This is the back’s default screen and the starting point in which to negotiate the menu system. It enables direct access to the Play mode to view captured images, the Menu to congure the IQ back’s setup and ISO sensitivity and White Balance (WB) settings.  The bottom of the Home Screen features an Info Bar that displays a Power Indicator that shows the remaining battery capacity or a FireWire icon if the IQ2 is being used to shoot tethered via a FireWire 800 connection. The Power Indicator will start blinking when it runs low to warn users that the battery needs to be replaced before capturing any more images.The selected ISO rating, White Balance setting and the IIQ Raw le format are all displayed in the center of Home Screen.
