Technical Camera Systems

Exceptional mechanical precision and unsurpassed optics combine to deliver astonishing results.

Working with technical cameras unlocks creative opportunities, and satisfies our need to create deliberate images with the advantage of capturing to a high resolution digital back.

There are certain styles of photography that lend themselves to working with the simplest mechanical cameras and most refined optics available.

Landscape photography

The slow and considered workflow of technical cameras is perfectly suited to landscape photography.

From a technical standpoint the fewer moving parts and shorter optical path of a technical camera system can produce sharper images.

Architecture and interior photography

For certain architectural photographs there is simply no other choice.

By offering rear standard movements, technical cameras can control perspective correction, and photographing tight interiors without creating distortion is possible.
