Filters
Standard screw-threaded M49 mm filters should be
used. Two filters together may be used without problems
with vignetting. As the XPan II has a TTL exposure
system, filter factors – the amount of exposure
increase necessary for each filter- can in general be
ignored as they are automatically taken into account.
Tests or alternative exposures should be made in special
cases, however, to ensure the required result.
Three dedicated Hasselbad filters are available. A
UV/Sky for general purposes and two centre filters
(with respectively 30mm and 45mm fitting) for critical
applications using transparency film. Each filter can
also be combined with one additional filter including
polfilter type.
See under 'Accessories' for further information about
dedicated UV/Sky and Centre filters for Hasselblad
XPan lenses.
When using filters and a hand-held meter, be sure to include
any filter factors in the exposure calculations.
