The Image Bank
General
e Image Bank controls the communication between the camera and a computer and sup-
plies power to the sensor unit.
While shooting in the studio with the H1D tethered to a computer, the Image Bank generates
the preview image (in 2 secs.) for viewing and processing in FlexColor.
During untethered operation, the H1D is powered by its own batteries in the grip and the Image
Bank is powered by a standard lithium ion battery (see Technical Specifications). All shots
are saved straight to the Image Bank’s hard disk, which has a capacity of up to 850 shots. e
disk is specially formatted to automatically maintain full speed throughout its lifetime.
Aer shooting, simply connect the Image Bank to a computer to view, select and process
your images in FlexColor. See ‘Transferring Images’

Specifications’ for details).
