Studiotool*Stm for Creative Professional Photography

I'd like to thank everybody who contributed to the worldwide success of the Studiotool*Stm Model 1. Even though not manufactured any longer it still is a great tool and especially with the Live Focus Canon Eos 1D(s) Mark III cameras.

Studiotool*Stm Model 1 is a modular system intended for professional photography created out of need for real camera movements. The STS-Model 1 integrates a Sinar view camera with a Canon 1D series digital SLR to increase productivity, quality and creativity of photographers.

The Studiotool*Stm Model 1 was based around a precision CNC machined aluminum bracket that replaced the rear carrier frame of a Sinar P, P2 or X view camera. The kit also included a Canon EOS-1D mounting plate, compact custom made neoprene bellows, with Canon and Sinar compatible mounts and a replacement depth-of-field scale sticker engineered for small format photography.

Key Features:

* Hand made (in Finland) compact neoprene bellows with Canon and Sinar mounts.

* Precision CNC machined state-of-the-art carrier bracket for Sinar P, P2 and X view cameras.

* Customised depth-of-field scale replacement sticker engineered for small format photography.

* Quick to install and extremely easy and fast to use.

* Low profile, straight mounting and original film plane maintaining camera base plate.

* Foba, ArcaSwiss compatible quickrelease camera plate for added productivity and compatibility.
