I have PhaseOne IQ250 and Leaf Credo80
I have Mamiya DF+ camera bodies and a Cambo 23D tech camera

I also have Canon dslr gear including a 17mm TS-E lens and have heard I can use it for medium format.

My question is this: "how do I use the 17 mm TS your lens with my medium format digital backs? I am looking for advice on what is needed to use with either my tech camera or my DF+ .
what is needed to use with either my tech camera or my DF+ cameras?
Very curious ��

Please forgive grammar and repeats...My first post using SIRI :)

You need a "shutter unit" between the Canon Lens and the back:

HCam (Hartblei Cam)
Alpa FPS (https://www.alpa.ch/de/article/alpa-12-fps

Arca-Swiss has a shutter module for their system but I have no idea if you can buy it - maybe it's still not ready for shipping. (Still no website but some information is here: Arca Swiss dEx, FP, CS, DM, Universalis - DT Blog )

Looks like the HCam is perfect for this function! Thanks, Chris.
Looks like about $6K USD for a very versatile pancake camera that can use any back or lens I have...vs about $12K for a 23HR .....hmmmm (wallet vault in danger...;)

How can I adapt my Canon lenses to an H5D-50C?
Cerett, you can't do with the H5D body. Just check focal flange distances/registering distances. The Canon EF is 44 mm short but the Hasselblad H is 61.63 mm. So you have to recess the lens mount by 17.63 mm (goodbye mirror) but even then you end without a shutter as this is built in to the Hasselblad H lenses...

pls check this, Its price is 1/4 of ALPA FPS.
Chiek, you have a nice product. Be proud of it. So why do you have to shoot always against or relate to ALPA? Is there an electronically controlled focal plane shutter up to 1/4000 sec in your camera (ALPA FPS and Hartblei) or an adapter mount system allowing the use of Canon, some Nikon, Hasselblad V and for H, Contax and Rollei lenses (ALPA FPS) announced? Once I even got eBay notifications with your camera under the keyword ALPA...

I have been dreaming about putting my 17mm TSE on my DM22 somehow. (I think the DM22 is the same as the Aptus II 22, just rebranded for Mamiya.)

Is there a way, Chiek?

I like ALPA TC/STC because it's portable. but Hcam or FPS can not handheld system.
It must needs tripod. I hate it.

I want to use Canon wide lens / MFDigital back system, with Handheld portable.
Of course, mine limits the fastest shutter speed, 1/125sec. but It's no problem for me because of using wide-angle lens like 17,24, 11-24 etc.

I'm sorry for late reply. I was very busy on my job, commercial still-life photographer.

Sure, engardeknave. my concepts can change back mounts (FOTOMAN Dmini).
Just unscrew 4 bolts and replace other back mounts. but Hsystem can't. Only V, Mamiya, Contax.
