    Entry level Cambo+Leaf+Rodenstock Tech-cam kit for under $7000

    Due to ill-health my tech-cam set up is not getting the use it deserves and it’s time to sell. This was my entry into medium format digital with a tech cam and it’s been an absolute joy to use for my fine art landscape and architectural work. Leaf Aptus 54S Hassleblad H fit. This model sits...

    Aptus Internal battery

    Hi there, I haven't been using my Leaf Aptus for about 11 months whilst I've been moving houses and countries. Upon unboxing it all and putting it together last night it seems a a few of my batteries are dead - they show full charge in camera but cut out after 30 seconds' use. However more...

    Strap solution for Cambo RS

    So my Cambo spends its life either in the bag or on the tripod, but for the short moments in between, or on those few occasions when I hand-hold, I sure would like a shoulder strap for it. From what I can see, the metal gripped bodies have small strap lugs screwed into the hand grips, but the...

    Only 7 months old, barely used, all in mint condition with original packaging. I'm still happy using a composing card from my large format days so this is sitting in the box unused - would like to see it go to a new home. Great for scouting and composing on and off-camera. Viewfinder (WDS580)...

    Digital back out-resolving the lens

    Hi there I use a Rodenstock 45mm F4.5 Apo-Sironar Digital lens on a tech cam coupled with a 22mp Leaf back. I selected this lens for it's large image circle, perfect for the stitching I do about 80% of the time. With the big 9 micron pixels of the 22mp Leaf back I'm getting brilliant results...

    Aptus Back loses settings

    Inspired by Wayne's recent post, I wonder if anyone could help me out with a similar problem I'm having. My Leaf Aptus back doesn't recall certain settings after power-off. It remembers the important ones like ISO and such, but other settings from the set-up menu dont stay after I switch it...

    Leaf RAW - compress or not?

    To be able to use the LCC corrections in Capture One on a Leaf MOS raw file, I have to set the back to save as compressed (loss-less) raw. Capture One won't let me apply any LCC corrections to an uncompressed MOS file. The pros of this are A) fit more images on a CF card and B) be able to use...

    Difference between Leaf and Mamiya branded Leaf Aptus II backs

    Hi As the title suggests, is there a difference between the Mamiya DM22 and the Leaf Aptus II 5 (22mp). Is it just branding or are there functionality / software differences? The Leaf website shows all Leaf-branded backs, whereas BH Photovideo for example shows Mamiya branded backs only. Is...
