Chris --

Do you know if the viewfinder for the DS will work with the RS?

Thanks.

Paul,

From my understaning, it will. Cambo seems to want to make it compatible with the WDS system.

That was the message I got as well,  from Rene Rook at Focus, if it's any help.

Also what's interesting
is that both Alpa & Cambo have announced lensplates for Rollei-mount lenses to be used
[will require Rollei LensControl S paddle].

A Rollei lens adapter for the Alpa cameras is available since 2005/2006.

To all,

I discovered this morning that a 3-page PDF file of the Wide RS Operating Instruction Manual is now available on Cambo's website for downloading at:

http://www.cambo.com/Html/downloads/Linked...2/WRSmanual.pdf

Lots of great info on the new camera system.

just talked to Calumet in NYC
Cambo said they were to have the camera this month.
Calumet said no, that it won't be out until photokina

Calumet Photo has product web page for the Cambo RS at:

http://www.calumetphoto.com/item/CB0579/

The page indicates that a least the WDS-1000 Body is in stock.

However, the WRS Digital Back Interface Adapters are NOT listed anywhere on the store website (and, of course, the camera is not functional w/o a DBIA for your MFDB)    

So I guess one has to wait a bit longer.

Cambo promised availability in July.

Two more weeks left make good on this.

Is this camera compatible with the newer P65+ back?

Cheers,
Bernard

There should be no problem from what I can see. The P65+ uses the same mount as the other PhaseOn backs. It will require less LCC work though from what the specs say and since it is a DALSA sensor.

We have gotten one of the Cambo RS's in and it is in the hands of a very experienced Cambo Wide user. I am going to try to get him to post some impressions Overall I think he is impressed with it.
Also Cambo is closed this month for holiday, so that is probably why there is such a wait.
