Novoflex Proshift+ Adapter - Shift Adapter for Balpro Bellows and Digital SLR Cameras

Fitted to a Novoflex bellows, the Novoflex PROSHIFT+ is used to take 2 or 3 individual shots using parallel shift and multiple exposures. These partial images are then merged automatically to a complete image using an appropriate program (Canon Photo Stitch, Photoshop CS Photomerge, etc.). Photomerge has an advantage here because it supports fine corrections of the individual images at separate levels.

The image or file size, and thus the print quality is increased 2x to 2.4x, depending on the sensor size. This also applies to future cameras with 8, 10 and 12 megapixels.

To obtain 3 separate files suitable for mounting, the lighting should be identical and the exposure setting (shutter speed/aperture) plus the white balance should be fixed manually.

In combination with the Novoflex BALPRO 1 or BALPRO T/S universal bellows, the useful focal length is between 80 and 150mm, with the effective focal length approximately halved by the larger image field. In effect, the image area taken with a focal length of 150mm corresponds to a single image taken at about 80mm.

The adapter can be tilted for portrait or landscape format and offers all the benefits of the interchangeable Novoflex adapter system, so that a change of the camera system won't present any new problems.

The adapter can also be used with film SLR cameras for normal photography with shift function.
