Hi,
Are there users on this forum of any other digital backs for the Hassi.
I'm especially keen to learn how the Leaf Aptus ii 5 stacks up....
Thanks, S:)
 
Hi,
I bought a leaf aptus 65 refurbished for my 503CW. It works fine and the synch cable is not a problem for me.
But I have bought a 203FE and I want to use a digital back with it. And the leaf dont work, so I'm looking for someone to change a cfv39 with my leaf aptus 65 + money!
 
Other digital back

Swissblad,

I've been using a Phase One P25+ (9 micron fat pixel) back for some time and I really like it. It will rotate to vertical by taking the back off and physically rotating it. I see this as an advantage over the Hassey back. Maybe the Leaf has an internal rotating sensor?

The Capture One Pro software is superb. All of that has given new life to my V system and it makes my Canon 1dsMkII images look very inferior.

Thanks for the feedback gents.

The ability to rotate the P25+ is certainly a feature to consider, as the Hassi is a bit "vertical tilting" challenged.
 
Aptus 22

Anyone have any thoughts on the newer Aptus 22 (Mamiya DM22) back. Available with a V mount. Looks interesting although the longest exposure time is 32 sec. The price is right and the fat pixels interest me.
