Linhof Kardan GT 4x5 Camera

|
Lightweight system camera for studio and location,
combining the proven design details of the KARDAN
range with an innovative monorail and new base tilt
elements providing tri-axial camera adjustments to
yield yaw-free movements both with direct and
indirect displacements. The telescoping monorail
guarantees outstanding stability. Special dovetail
fittings allow to freely slide the entire monorail
back and forth on all tripod heads thus featuring
full macro focusing capability and wide angle
efficiency as no encircling clamp has to be used.
Center swings and tilts for uncomplicated
Scheimpflug adjustments, factory adjusted parallel
locks on the base tilt elements guarantee perfect
camera alignment also with inclined monorail. There
are three formats of the Kardan GT available: 4x5,
5x7, 8x10 inch |

| German Description
Gelenkrasten (G) und Teleskopgrundrohr (T) geben der unbegrenzt
verstellbaren Systemkamera den Namen. Trotz Leichtbauweise bietet
sie enorme Stabilität in allen Positionen - die ideale
Allround-Kamera für alle fotografischen Aufgaben bis hin zum Einsatz
digitaler Rückteile. Absolut torkelfreie Funktion bei direkten und
indirekten Verstellungen. Der Nivellier-Neigekopf als System-Zubehör
nimmt die optische Bank auf. Ohne Umbau gestattet das
Teleskop-Grundrohr längste Auszüge. So sind Aufnahmen im Nahbereich
wie auch der Einsatz von Teleobjektiven für die GT kein Problem. Die
Kardan GT gibt es in 3 Formaten.
