Compact, portable, and fully-adjustable, the Cambo ACTUS-MV View Camera Body is compatible with digital backs as well as mirrorless and DSLR camera bodies. Designed to offer all the movements a studio photographer requires, the front and rear standards provide generous and precisely geared movements for rise, fall, and shift application. Additionally, when working with an inclined rail, tilting both the front and rear standards allows you to restore perpendicularity when desired. To position the focus plane, the front standard offers swing and tilt movements in extremely small increments, and a similar mechanism at the rear of the camera body allows for fine focusing. Meanwhile, friction knobs on the left side of the camera can be tightened for unintended camera movements on the rail.
The base configuration of a ACTUS-MV consists of a monorail, front assembly without lensplate, and a rear frame which accepts a camera bayonet holder or digital back frame. Optional bellows can then be added depending on the application.
- For Phase One/Mamiya and the Hasselblad-V interface, optional adapters allow for portrait and landscape rotation.
- The front standard of the Actus-MV accepts all lens plates from the vast Actus range, including medium format adapters, lens plates for X-shutter lenses, and legacy leaf shutter lenses.
