D. MOUNTING THE DIGITAL BACK
Please choose the SLW interface adapter corresponding to the interface mount
of your digital back. The digital back is mounted to the SLW adapter as it would
to corresponding medium format camera body (Hasselblad®-V, Mamiya® AFd,

erating details please follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the digital

E. MOVEMENTS: SHIFT, RISE AND FALL
The Wide RS features horizontal as well as vertical (rise/fall) movement of the
rear standard. These movements can be used for perspective control, image
displacement and stitching of multiple exposures. This allows the user to take
full advantage of the large image circle of certain lenses. Both movements
shift the image plane, which allows the user to take multiple images within the
same focal plane, ideal for stitching. Stitching can be used to create panoramas
with the maximum viewing angle or to create higher resolution files.
The horizontal shift is operated by drive knob located at the top of the camera.
From the optical center position the rear standard can be moved 20mm left
or 20mm right. The vertical shift (rise/fall) is operated by drive knob which is
located at the right hand side of the camera. From the optical center position
the rear standard can fall 25mm (shifts the image up) or rise 15mm (shifts the
image down).
Please note that above movements are the mechanically feasible movements,
which do not by default reflect the optical possibilities of all lenses. Each lens
has its own possibilities and limits.
F. MOVEMENTS AND SCALES
The horizontal movement can be followed and repeated viewing the scale (20)
on top of the main housing. The scale is divided into millimeters for your con

venience. There are also movement indicators engraved on the back side of
the main housing which are always visible from behind the camera either un

der or above the vertical moving plate, depending upon its position.
The vertical movement can be followed and repeated viewing the scale on
right hand side of the main housing. The scale is divided into millimeters for
your convenience. There are also movement indicators engraved on the left
