Hasselblad CFV Digital Back Adapter for Mamiya RB67 Series
This adapter makes your Mamiya RB67 or Mamiya RB67 Pro S can work with Hasselblad CFV digital back.
I've designed and made the adapter with my own FDM (Resin) 3D printer.
So the finishing and the quality of the surface are not commercial grades. It does not affect the working condition and the quality of your picture. Instead, you can have a unique opportunity to utilize your equipment if you have Mamiya RB67 and Hasselblad CFV digital back. I've made this adapter by referencing with Hasselblad CFV. If you have a different model of Hasselblad Digital back. You need to confirm yourself if your digital back can be compatible with yours.
I'm selling only the adapter. So, the camera, the digital back, and the hot sync cable in the listing pictures are not included in this sales.
For syncing with the shutter and the digital back, you need to connect a hot sync cable between the port on the lens and the digital back and configure your digital back for the sync signal.
The center of images from your digital back will be not the same as what you saw through the viewfinder. So, you need to take pictures to allow for the difference. Just letting you know in advance.
The adapters in the pictures in this listing might be different from what you will receive if I upgrade the adapter design.
The most of digital backs are designed to work large format cameras. Our adapters work with the idea. If you are using digital backs like Phase One IQ series which has no legacy sync in port, the digital backs can receive the shutter signal through "multi-connector" and two-shot cable. So, please prepare proper cables to Hasselblad CFV and your digital back and select camera types in the the setup menu in your digital back as like "Large Format" or "Live View Camera".
If you require more technical information, such as compatibility details or the necessary cables, please refer to the LensMod website.
[ Attention ]
Please read carefully to ensure compatibility and prepare the necessary sync cables.
1. Confirm your digital back's mount type.
Digital back mount types can be confusing. Many people struggle to identify their existing back or choose the right one for purchase. Let's clear things up!
Main Digital Back Mounts:
- Mamiya 645AFD (PhaseOne DF, M645)
- Hasselblad V (CFV, V-Mount)
- Hasselblad H (Fuji 645GX, CFH, H101. H-Mount)
- Contax 645
There are various submodels from a main model.
For example, PhaseOne P65+ digital back has 4 different models M645, CFV, CFH and Contax645.
So, purchasing the wrong adapter can render it useless. Ensure you choose the adapter specifically matched to your digital back's mount type. To avoid compatibility issues, please confirm your back's mount type: CFV, CFH, or M645.
Purchase Guide: Follow the links below to find adapters compatible with your specific digital back mount:
2. Determine the sync method between your RB/RZ67 camera and your digital back.
There are three possibilities depending on your digital back:
1) PhaseOne P20+, P21+, P25+, P30+, or P45+:
These require the Two-Shot method for each shot. You'll need a PhaseOne Multi-Connector (Multi-Cable) with Wake-up (Two-Shot) Connector (Cable) and a PC sync cable. The Multi-Connector is typically included with the original digital back purchase.
2) PhaseOne P40+ / P65+ / IQ Series:
These can use both the Two-Shot method (for battery conservation) and the Single-Shot method. You'll need a PhaseOne Multi-Connector (Multi-Cable) and a PC sync cable.
3) Other digital backs (Aptus CFV, Hasselblad CFV):
You don't need any special connectors (Multi-Connector or Wake-Up cable) for communicate syc signal. A standard PC sync cable is sufficient.
We hope this explanation helps you identify your digital back and determine the necessary sync cable. For more detailed information on configuration, capabilities, sync cables, and adapter manuals, please visit the LensMod website's Support menu.
