Arca Swiss F-Line Compact 6x9 CameraArca Swiss F-Line Compact Metric 6x9 Camera with Micrometric Orbix gearing and Fresnel viewing screen.
This
compact and precise 6x9 view camera is perfect for Digital use, and it
is fast becoming a favourite among pro photographers the world over.
The fine geared movements are much smaller than with a 4x5 camera, and
therefore much more suited to today's medium format full-frame CCD
sensors e.g. Phase One digital backs.
The Orbix advantageThe
Orbix's movements are perpendicular to the optical axis rather than the
monorail. Focus adjustments therefore occur in the selected plane and
are also easier to make. The Orbix produces absolutely yaw-free
movements - an indispensable feature when shooting waith digital
cameras because of their small sensors. Another benefit is a marked
increase in movement with short focal length lenses. The Orbix- system
gives the user the ability to perform dynamic focus adjustments. Simply
make manual adjustments in the optical axis until the desired focus is
attained. Unlocking or locking of the mechanism is not required.
No
Limits: the Arca Swiss camera system, with its standardised - and
therefore interchangeable - components, gives the photographer all the
options needed to match the equipment to any imaginable assignment.
ARCA-SWISS
cameras grow and change to match the photographer's knowledge,
experience and preferences. The camera does not dictate terms; rather,
the photographer alone decides which components are required. Even in
this age of electronic image capturing, advanced large format cameras
with their range of movement are the only solution to many common
technique problems. ARCA SWISS cameras offer perfectly designed,
ergonomic controls to optimally adjust perspective and planes-of-focus
quickly and precisely. The result: arresting images showing perfect
perspective, a well-chosen plane of focus, clear details and rich
colour and saturation. ARCA-SWISS F-Line cameras are market leaders as
the most versatile image capturing devices available. Both camera lines
consist of functionally optimized precision instruments. Their
ergonomically inspired elegance is not only optically pleasing, but
also offers the highest degree of ease-of-use. The step from commercial
6x7cm medium format to the large sheet-film formats of 5x7" or 8x10" is
child's play: from the lightweight and universal F-Line, the compact
F-Line C with its collapsible monorail, to the versatile and rugged
M-Line - all yaw-free and modular.
