1 Macintosh Getting Star ted The Phase One H 5 has been designed for ease of installation and use. There are just a few easy steps to follow , from unpacking the Phase One H 5 to developing the first shot.
Hardware Set-up The Phase One H 5 connects to the computer via an IEEE 1394 connec- tion. This new , extremely fast connection does not have many of the limi- tations of the SCSI technology used in previous digital cameras.
6) If flash is used, connect the Flash Sync Cable (not included) from the strobes to the connector on the right side of the camera back, marked “F”. 7) Finally , connect one end of the included IEEE 1394 cable to any one of the empty ports on the newly installed card, or the built-in port.
LED Indicators Lights On the back of the Phase One H 5 are two sets of LED indicator lights. A red and green light on the left and a red and green light on the right. The left and right pairs are identical and should always display the same thing. These lights indicate the camera back status.
2 Install the Software After the computer is restarted, the software that will control the IEEE 1394 card must be installed, as well as the software for the Phase One H 5. W e have included one easy-to-use installer that will place all of the necessar y software on the computer .
Using the Phase One H 5 Phase One has made using the Phase One H 5 as close to using film as digital photography can be. The first step to using the Phase One H 5 is to start the application. Double-click the folder called “Capture One Application” on the hard drive and then double-click the “Capture One” icon.
3 Software Set-up At this point it may be a good idea to set up Photoshop and the system for Color Management. A brief guide to Color Management and Profiles is provided in the T ools and Preferences sections of this manual. T aking Photographs The camera back is designed for ease of use and high perfor mance.
Preview Generation Preview generation is time consuming for the computer . Viewing previews after a session allows the computer to work faster . Enter the Camera Menu and select Generate Previews to uncheck it (hide the check mark). T o enable preview generation select Generate Previews again and the check mark becomes visible.
4 Editing and Selecting Images Editing After taking photographs, the next step in the process is to choose which images to keep and develop. Select “Capture Collection” from the “Window” menu at the top of the screen. (“Command-2”). The Capture Collection is similar to a contact sheet.
The Preview Window in detail The Preview Window is divided into several sections to help evaluate and control the development of images. The file name of the current preview is shown at the top of the Preview Window for easy reference. On the right of the window , at the top, is a row of buttons used to access the tools that control the image.
Color Info One of the most important displays of the Preview Window is the “Color Info” window . This panel shows the individual R ed, G reen and B lue channel information. With film photography the evaluation of final exposure and development levels is a manual, and often subjective, process.
Apply to Image When selected, the chosen gray balance will be applied to the current image and all subsequent images, until a new gray balance is set. Current Capture This only changes the gray balance of the current capture. All subsequent captures retain the gray balance set under Apply to Image.
Then adjust the brightness, contrast and color . Finally the image is developed by clicking on the Develop button. On average it should take between 40 seconds and 1.5 minutes to develop an image. Development speed is entirely dependent on speed of the computer .
The dialogue box provides you with the following options: File Format Choose the file format you prefer to work with - TIFF , JPEG, BMP , PICT etc. If JPEG is selected then please define the level of compression in the Quality field. 'Maximum' compression provides you with the smallest file and the fewest image details and vice versa.
Image Size In the Image Size field allows image resizing in percentages or pixels. 50% is the default size/resolution of a preview . The 'Apply Sharpening' box enables/disables the sharpening settings from the Capture One Software or from third party applications.
5 T ools Many of the tools in the Phase One application act in much the same way as the tools of popular image editing applications such as Adobe Photoshop. Many of these tools actually come from the traditional world; the cropping tool is the first example of this, mimicking the cropping “L ’ s” used by artists and photographers.
Zoom T ool Select the Zoom tool and click on the preview image to zoom in. Use option-click (Alt key) to zoom out. Remember , the preview image is only a low-resolution image and will quickly pixilated when enlarged. Grid T ool T wo different grids can be used to help align and measure the objects in images.
Further control of the tonal range is possible by unchecking the ”Preser ve Color Balance” box. Each color channel can then be adjusted individually . A particular color is defined for the lightest, or darkest, part of the image by checking the ”T arget Colors” box.
Unsharp Mask The name “unsharp mask” (USM) can be misleading. Using this tool actually gives an apparent increase in image sharpness by enhancing the edge differences between pixels of different colors.
Camera Settings The Camera Settings control is used to set the orientation of the image, if this is not set automatically . Capture Navigator Click on the “Capture Navigator” button to bring up the “Capture Navigator” palette. The capture collection can be quickly previewed by using the next, previous, first or last image buttons.
6 Preferences Under the “File” menu is an option called “Preferences”. Select an option from the left-hand side of the window and then set preferences on the right. It is also possible to change the appearance of the user interface. Develop File The Develop File Section controls the naming, file location and other attribution settings.
“3-digit unique suffix number” Changes the naming from “capture name2” to “capture name002.” This is useful when developing a series of images that must stay in sequence (36 images for a QuickT ime VR object movie, for instance).
The software installs basic profiles for the Phase One H 5 camera as well as a generic monitor profile (e.g. T rinitron 1.8) and some RGB color space profiles. A brief guide to preference settings is provided here: Use System Profile for monitor – check to select the system monitor profile, or un-check to specify a monitor profile.
Setting up ICC profiles in Adobe Photoshop 6.0 The Capture One Software set up the recommended color Set-up for Adobe photoshop 6.0 automatically . However , if the automatic set-up does not work then install the color setting file called PhaseOne PS60 Defaults.
7 Camera Information The Phase One H 5 has an “info” function that displays important information about the Phase One H 5. This information can be invaluable in troubleshooting problems. If you ever need to contact technical support, be sure to have this infor mation available.
8 Additional Features Demoirize plug-in The Phase One Demoirize plug-in for Adobe Photoshop allows the removal of moiré patterns from images by means of three different filtering modes: Advanced, Unicolor T extiles and Skin and Hair .
Using advanced mode on skin and hair For skin and hair surfaces the optimal settings for the advanced filter would be to position the Quality/Speed slider at Speed and the Pattern Size slider ver y close to Small. Please note that large color moiré areas in hair may require a larger pattern size setting.
9 T r ouble Shooting If technical problems are experienced when working with the Phase One H 5 it may be necessar y to contact Phase One’ s T echnical Suppor t department.
10 Windows Getting Star ted The Phase One H 5 has been designed for ease of installation and use. There are just a few easy steps to follow , from unpacking the Phase One H 5 to developing the first shot.
Photographic Equipment Set-up In addition to setting up the computer , the camera must be prepared to work with the Phase One H 5. This involves a few simple steps: 1) A Ground Glass Mask is included. This must be installed in the viewfinder to ensure correct framing.
Cable Connections for the Mamiya RZ67 Pro II 4) Connect the included Sync Cable from the lens’ flash sync to either the connector on the camera back marked “C” or the the Mamiya Mounting plate. 5) If using a motorised camera, connect the included Motor Cable to the connector on the right side of the camera back marked “M”.
LED Indicators Lights On the back of the Phase One H 5 are two sets of LED indicator lights. A red and green light on the left and a red and green light on the right. The left and right pairs are identical and should always display the same thing. These lights indicate the camera back status.

Using the Phase One H 5 Phase One has made using the Phase One H 5 as close to using film as digital photography can be. The first step to using the camera back is to start the application. Double-click the Capture One shor t-cut. Double-click the application icon to start the application that controls the camera back.
12 Software Set-up At this point it may be a good idea to set up Photoshop and the system for Color Management. A brief guide to Color Management and Profiles is provided in the T ools or Preferences section of this manual. T aking Photographs The Phase One H 5 is designed for ease of use and high perfor mance.
All developed capture files are stored in a sub folder called Develops (C:Program FilesCapture One BasicScubaDevelops), which is automatically created by checking the box Develop capture in the Session Creator dialogue box.
13 Editing and Selecting Images The Phase One software main window is divided into three sections that make it functional and easy to use. The sections are: Capture Collection The Capture Collection is located on the left side of the interface screen and will show a small thumbnail of the images in the currently selected capture director y .
Once the trash has been emptied the images are gone for good, so be careful! Images can be instantly and permanently deleted by selecting them and then pressing “Control-Delete” on the keyboard; be careful when using this feature! Once an image is deleted it is gone forever .
Conversely , if the image is a dark subject (or is underexposed) then the data will all be to the left side of the graph. A well exposed image of a “normal” scene will have most of the graph data spiked in the middle with some highlight and shadow pixels to the right and left.
Unlike many other digital camera systems Phase One has made the Gray Balance feature of the application easy to use. Simply follow these steps: 1) Open the image to be processed in the Preview Window . 2) Choose the “Gray Balance” tab. 3) Click the pointer on an area of the image that should be neutral gray .
Exposure T ab One of the most important displays of the Exposure T ab Window is the “Color Info” window . This display shows the individual R ed, G reen and B lue channel information. With film photography the evaluation of final exposure and development levels is a manual, and often subjective, process.
Curves The next window in the Exposure tab is the Cur ves control, again this is a standard Cur ves control that may look familiar to those of other imaging programs. The Cur ves control is extremely powerful and can be used to control ever y tone in the image.
The orientation frame can be hidden automatically after a few seconds. Check the box “Hide focus orientation frame automatically” under the Other Settings tab in the Preferences dialogue box.
Sharpening Also found under the Focus T ab is a preview of the Unsharp mask settings (also discussed later in this user guide). Experiment with different values to determine the correct setting for each image.
Search via annotations The 'Capture Annotations' dialogue box also has search capabilities, which enable you to locate a specific capture file via its name or annotations. Key in search words in the Find field and click enter . The Find function will then locate all capture files matching the search.
This way you will always be able to identify your developed TIFF file later on in the process. Automatic Preview Enhancement The automatic preview enhancement guarantees that image previews are generated in a high quality in order to ensure an optimum image evaluation on the monitor .
A row of buttons in the Batch Editor section control when images will be developed. The buttons are: Develop Image When clicked the currently selected image will be developed immediately using the current settings. Add Image to Batch The application can develop a group of images in a batch mode.
Editing and Selecting Images Editing and Selecting Images Browse Develop Folder Clicking on this button will open the currently selected develop folder . At the bottom of the Develop tab is a status bar that shows a development progress bar and the percentage of the image that has been developed and the approximate time left to develop the image.
Editing and Selecting Images 13.24 Editing and Selecting Images Destination folder The Destination Folder is where you organize the workflow . Y ou choose your own destination folder . If no destination folder is selected then a default folder called 'Exported Previews' is created inside the capture collection folder .
14 T ools Many of the tools in the Phase One application act in much the same way as the tools of popular image editing applications such as Adobe Photoshop. Many of these tools actually come from the traditional world; the cropping tool is the first example of this, mimicking the cropping “L ’ s” used by artists and photographers.
In general, if the exposure warning is shown over a large area of the selected image, it indicates that the exposure level may need to be adjusted. Highlight areas are more critical than the shadows. Preser ve highlight detail by not allowing values greater than 240.
T o use Color Management effectively , the profiles of the camera, monitor and destination must be defined. If all three devices are not correctly specified there is a risk that the final image will not correspond to the captured image.
Unsharp Mask The name “unsharp mask” (USM) can be misleading. Using this tool actually gives an apparent increase in image sharpness by enhancing the edge differences between pixels of different colors.
15 Camera Info The Phase One H 5 has an “info” function that displays important information about the connected camera back. This information can be invaluable in troubleshooting problems. If you ever need to contact technical support, be sure to have this infor mation available.
16 Additional Features Demoirize Plug-in The Phase One Demoirize plug-in for Adobe Photoshop allows you to remove moiré patterns from your images by means of three different filtering modes: Advanced, Unicolor textiles as well as Skin and Hair .
Using advanced mode on textiles On textile the optimal settings for the advanced filter would be to position the Quality/Speed slider towards Speed, or in an intermediate position.
