Cambo ACTAR-138 Lensplate with Rodenstock 138mm f/6.5 HR Digaron-SW Float Lens
Key Features
  • Mounted in ACTUS Lensplate
  • Aperture Range: f/6.5 to f/32
  • Floating Element Design
  • Ideal Working Aperture: f/6.5
The Cambo ACTAR-105 pairs the Rodenstock 138mm HR Digaron-SW Float lens and an ACTUS lensplate for use with ACTUS view cameras. An exceptionally sharp, long focal length lens the 138mm HR features floating elements which keep optimal performance at any working distance. It has been engineered to have the highest possible resolving power, very close to the diffraction limit. This is not only achieved across the entire field of the largest digital sensors but also to the edge of the large 110mm image circle, to allow for lens shifts and tilts. These qualities allow the lens to control geometric distortion below 1% at all times, and chromatic aberration is completely suppressed.

Cambo ACTAR-138 Lensplate with Rodenstock 138... Overview

The Cambo ACTAR-105 pairs the Rodenstock 138mm HR Digaron-SW Float lens and an ACTUS lensplate for use with ACTUS view cameras. An exceptionally sharp, long focal length lens the 138mm HR features floating elements which keep optimal performance at any working distance. It has been engineered to have the highest possible resolving power, very close to the diffraction limit. This is not only achieved across the entire field of the largest digital sensors but also to the edge of the large 110mm image circle, to allow for lens shifts and tilts. These qualities allow the lens to control geometric distortion below 1% at all times, and chromatic aberration is completely suppressed.

The ACTAR-138 is suitable for digital backs with the largest available sensors (36x56mm and 40x54mm). It provides ample clearance for parallel shifts to correct the perspective or for swing and tilt according to the Scheimpflug rule - the very large 110mm image circle can be fully utilized over the entire focusing range. The long focal length provides for a comfortable working distance even at the macro limit.

  • Designed specifically for the ACTUS view camera system, this 105mm f/5.6 lens is permanently mounted in an ACTUS lensplate and maintains infinity focus with both DSLRs and mirrorless cameras. It is not compatible with the ACTUS-DB system
  • Offering an image circle of 110mm and excellent sharpness across the field, this lens covers full-frame and medium format image sensors and allows for sufficient tilt and shift movements to be applied.
  • Manual aperture ring affords control from f/5.6 to f/16, with the recommended working aperture range from f/6.5 to f/11.

loving it, could be the sharpest lens ever

Purchase it to use on Cambo camera body, works great, if you are into technical data (MTF )of a lens, this is the sharpest lens edge to edge ever produced, also the sharpest in all Rodenstock HR Digaron lenses. One complaint, the focus ring is tighter than normal, I guess it will loosen up as time goes.
