The Wide RS600 is designed for architectural and landscape photographers that wish to use a digital back without removing and exchanging it with the focusing screen, enabling the photographer to compose, focus, slide the digital back in place and shoot immediately.
Manufactured from high grade aerospace aluminum, the camera platform is one piece unit which prevents any distortion as the camera plane is parallel and only the back is designed to shift, rise and fall.

- The lens stays in place, all movements on the rear side
- Accepts same SLW-adapters

These backs offer portability with built-in storage and image preview and review.

The variable locking mechanism is used to stitch images from all digital back sensors in the horizontal or vertical position. The lenses from the Wide DS and Wide RS range of cameras are compatible with the RS600. For Tilt and Swing functionality, this is achieved by using the Cambo digital lenses with Schneider and Rodenstock optics. The T/S range have 5 degrees of Tilt and Swing.
The CS loupe with Schneider optics is the ideal focussing aid when using a digital back without live view. The loupe kit attaches to the focussing screen, it can be positioned in each corner to check movement and sharpness. The kit is available for the RS600 and the Wide Camera range.
