 C645 Getting Started

Double exposure protection

With the C645 it is not possibly to accidentally double

expose the image by capturing one image quickly after

another e.g. when using continuos capture mode. The

H 10

 communication with the CONTAX 645 is dis

abling 

capture functionality in the camera when necessary.

Image orientation detection

The CCD in 

H 10

 C645 is positioned in landscape ori

entation.

Whenever an image is captured in portrait posi

tion by 

rotating the camera, an internal sensor detects this

 new 

position and the image will appear with the correct

orientation in the 

Capture One

 application.

Camera orientation: Images can be captured in all three

positions – and will appear with the correct orientation in

the 

Capture One

 application.
