That's why I have not bought the X2D yet. Maybe they will include the function in the next camera, maybe without the need to be tethered... or maybe that has nothing to do with this at all. Who knows? Except Karl Taylor of course...

If they don't will you wait for the next incarnation ?

Good point. In the video where the 6 shot was shown the photographer said he had a beta version of Phocus which have the support for 4 and 6 shot multishot.

Quote from: MGrayson on April 15, 2025, 04:50:55 AMDo we know if the current Phocus can process the 6 Shot images?

Someone here on the forum said he tried 4-shot MS with Phocus for Windows, and said it worked.

IF THAT IS TRUE, then there's a good chance that 6-shot MS will work too.  Simply because Phocus for Windows hasn't been updated since already before the v4.0.0 firmware was conceived.  Actually it's not even been updated for the v3.x.x firmware tree (liveview).  To me this observation speaks a lot about how the various software/firmware modules interact.  6-shot MS exists on the H6D, and is supported.  I'd fully expect the workflow to become eligible once the camera reports 6-shot capabilities over the wire.

Off-camera optimizations and corrections are a whole other can of worms though.

The 4 shot works with 3.7.5 on a PC. I tried it on a older surface pro (4 yrs old). It ran, very slow, and did produce 4 Multishot images. I did have some corruption on a few of the files. But I assumed it was due to the older surface pro.

False alarm. Sorry, all. I just see the existing Single/Multi option when tethering.

Hasselblad Firmware: 4.1.0
Phocus Mac Software: 3.8.5

Are you beta testing firmware 4.1.0?  I don't think anything past 4.0 has been released???

No. I just got my X2D from B&H last week and it came with 4.1.0 installed.
