Exposure problems with H3D11 - 39

[DenisWH]

I am a new member to the forum but a user of Hasselblad digital for almost 2 years.
I experienced a problem on a recent shoot in Scotland when my H3D11 - 39 was severely under-exposing.
I eventually determined that the camera was exposing for the time indicated on the top plate rather than the exposure I was dialling in via the view finder eg. dial-in 51 secs in the view finder, top plate shows 11 secs, which became the default setting for the shot. Switching on/off, removing battery, changing lens etc etc had no positive result although the problem eventually disappeared (to re-occur at some point in the future?)
Would appreciate any comments/feedback if other members have experienced something similar.

Sounds like a comms problem between the prism and body, they should read the same of course if I undetsand you correctly.
