The Cambo Wide DS-350 is a complete camera that accepts digital backs such as Leaf, PhaseOne, Imacon, EyeLike or Sinar with mounts for Hasselblad V-series, Hasselblad H-1, Mamiya 645AFD or Contax 645 compatible backs. The ideal chipsize is the current appr. 4x5 cm format (22 megapixel). The Wide DS ’s double shift allows for combined vertical and horizontal movements for perspective control. The movement in the “filmplane” even offers the possibility for stitching images together utilising the maximum viewing angle Schneider’s Digitar 35 XL offers up to 90 mm of image circle (102o) with high optical resolution, which allows for up to 20 mm shift in any direction without loss of image quality.

Most of the recent digital backs offer portability with built-in storage and image review, which offers great opportunities in combination with Cambo’s Wide DS system for interior, exterior and landscape photography and high resolution images for the demanding professional photographer.

This new Lens system is fully compatible with the existing Wide DS body, existing users of the Cambo Wide DS system can aquire the adaptation as a separate item to add to their equipment.
