Title: Alpa '12 Plus' Announced. The Mini Max
Post by: narikin on October 23, 2018, 07:43:16 pm
Alpa announced a new camera today - the 12 Plus, which seems to be a shrunken Alpa Max, or an enlarged STC.
Kind of a Mini-Max it seems  ;)

4 way shifts of 20mm each way.
STC was +/- 18 in one orientation
Max was 18/18 cross, with -18mm fall, but +25mm front rise.

Afaik, all models remain current - nothing is replacing the other.

It's somewhat more compact, between the two (Max and STC) in size. Weight not so different - marginally lighter than Max

Sadly no built in lens tilt. That would have been a real game changer.
Price: if you have to ask...

Indeed. Lifted from the post over on GetDI.

Perhaps flying under the radar, Alpa today announced the new Alpa 12 Plus:

Excuse me Steve. Not "lifted" at all.

I saw the camera in person in an NYC dealer's store yesterday, Jeff Hirsch  Fotocare, the biggest Alpa dealer in the US, and a lovely person. Everything I wrote was from personal hands on experience. 

Haven't even seen your getdpi post as yet. Will take a look over there after finishing this.

You owe me an apology!

Um, sorry Narikan.

But what I meant was that what I was writing was lifted from my same GetDPI post. I am sorry if you got the wrong impression.

I hope, since you're in New York, if you happen to come to PhotoPlus, you will stop by, it would be nice to meet you. Jeff is indeed a lovely person. And so are you, I am sure.

Ah, ok. It reads like you were suggesting I was lifting/copying your GetDPI post, which was not the case of course.
As your site was down, nobody could read it, to lift anything, anyhows!

Hope to see you at Photo East.
