using my iPad and Phocus 2 I can certainly see the raw file, and the jpeg is embedded therein. Exporting the image gives you a choice of JPEG, TIFF or 3FR raw. Further, wit JPEG you have a choice of no frame or a choice from several optional frames, Its really good.

Also new to the Hasselblad world, but maintain the same approach as with my Leica.

Download photos from camera to iPad via usb (ipad pro m4 arriving new week!) direct into Lightroom and edit from there.

I don't use SSD cards anymore or own a computer. And haven't worked out the advantages of the Phocus app (yet) - same for the Leica app in fact.

Works well for me (hobbyist)

The aperture IS controlled by the front wheel in manual mode. What you describe as your need is already there:)

Thanks for that. I have tried moving the focusing ring both ways and for a considerable number of turns. There is no change to the image - either becoming less blurry or more blurry. I have also noticed when I put my ear to the lens and turn the zoom ring I hear two clicks - when zooming in it happens at around the 70mm mark, when zooming out it happens around the 40mm mark.

Any advice?

Many thanks.

Kind regards,

Paul

Paul,

Before sending the lens in for repair, try cleaning its electrical contacts. Some people use alcohol, others use a pencil eraser. I'm not sure what the current best practice is.

You need the electronic shutter ON.

Good afternoon all,

I have just attached (for the first time) a Leica M lens to the XD2 body using the Novoflex HAX/LEM adapter. On doing so the camera shows a 'No Lens Detected' warning and the live screen is black.

Any advice/suggestions?

Many thanks.

Kind regards,

Paul

Thank you.
