LD is a new product from Horseman adding bellows functions to Canon EOS or Nikon F mount digital SLRs.
Bellows functions have traditionally been found on medium and large format cameras and enable the angle and lens position to tilt, shift, fall and rise against the image plane. This is useful for rectifying image distortions and is utilised in industrial product and architectural photography.
Adjustments can be made at the front and back of the device. It can swing and tilt from the centre through 360° and rise, fall and shift 30mm in either direction using a rack and pinion drive, particularly useful for creating panoramas.
Constructed from Die-cast and aluminium alloy, the LD is mounted on a monorail enabling it to refocus by sliding up and down without adjusting the image ratio. Horseman has said it will be introducing an adaptor for use with digital SLR backs.
