IQ3 interface plates for technical cameras

Posted on 2015/06/23 4:00 PM by Anthony Festa

With the introduction of the IQ3 camera systems, Phase One has added additional pins for extra communication with the XF camera body with the digital backs. As some have noticed, the interface plates for technical cameras have a cut out for the older pin configuration and will not accommodate the added pins. This means that the pins will touch the metal plate itself. While this does not impede usage, the pins were … Read More →

Posted on 2015/02/12 2:24 PM by Steve Hendrix

This could be considered Part 2 of – “My gosh, what has Cambo done”?

Since shutter repairs can be expensive, and the original article was posted 4 years ago, I felt it would be a good idea to refresh it and bring it … Read More →

First Look – Cambo Actus: a small miracle

Posted on 2014/07/02 3:45 PM by Steve Hendrix

My experience with Cambo goes back to my days at the turn of the millennium working for SinarBron Imaging, the USA Importer for Sinar cameras at the time. Most of the studio 4×5 shooters that I came into contact with were using a Sinar or a Cambo (occasionally a Toyo…). If they used a Cambo they were spending only 50% – 70% the price of the Sinar. That is how … Read More →
