Cambo ACTUS-G View Camera Body with 19mm f/4 Lens Kit (Hasselblad X)

Convert your Hasselblad X-mount mirrorless camera into a digital view camera with the Cambo ACTUS-G View Camera Body with 19mm f/4 Lens Kit from Fotohaus Klinger, combining the view camera body with a lensplate and 19mm f/4 wide-angle lens and bayonet holder.

Offering extensive perspective and focus control along with the convenience of working with your digital camera, the black ACTUS-G View Camera Body from Cambo effectively transforms your digital camera or back into a digital view camera. As the core component within a modular system, this view camera body serves as the primary piece from which you can pair a digital camera body with a variety of lenses to reap the benefits of geared camera movements for correcting perspective distortions, achieving an extended depth of field, or producing creative selective focus effects. While resembling traditional large format view cameras in function, the ACTUS system also echoes the compact form factor of the digital cameras it is designed to be paired with and is optimized for use in both the studio as well as on location.

This view camera body is delivered with a 6.1" monorail as well as a 4.9" bellows to permit working with a variety of lens and camera types. The monorail is designed to fit within the Arca-Swiss style quick release system for easy mounting to a tripod, and is also fitted with both 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 mounts for attaching quick release plates. Optional lensplates can be added depending on your desired lens type, and the monorail and bellows is also interchangeable with optional wide-angle and longer versions of each.

A full system of movements offers extensive control over perspective and focusing settings. Geared on-axis tilt and swing movements are performed on the front standard and the rear standard permits geared rise/fall and horizontal shift movements:

The swing and tilt movements of the front standard rotate about the optical axis in order to avoid having to re-compose or re-focus after each movement is applied.

As the central component within the modular ACTUS system, this view camera body serves as the means to which you can attach a variety of optional lens plates and camera bayonet mounts. Additionally, besides the standard included bellows and monorail, a variety of optional bellows and monorails are available for wide-angle and close-focusing/macro shooting applications.

This ACTAR-19 Ultra Wide-Angle Lens is dedicated to the CamboActus system in combination with a DSLR or mirrorless camera, mounted to the Actus. This lens is permanently attached to an Actus lens panel and has a focal length of 19mm. This makes it an ideal companion for interior, landscape, and architectural photographers. With a relatively light weight and a modest size it is easy to carry with you to location shootings.

The ACTAR-19 is a lens with almost no geometrical distortion. As the image circle is over 71mm, there is an optically allowed 15mm horizontal shift possible on each side when using a full frame (24 x 36) sensor in landscape mode, and 18mm in portrait mode. Use of the ACTAR-19 on the Actus with FUJIFILM GFX 50/100 series is possible with at least 9mm of shift. When using a digital back with a sensor-activated electronic shutter on the Actus-DB or XL, the image circle will cover a sensor size of 54 x 41.
