The system integrates Leaf's Aptus digital capture backs, delivering resolutions of up to 33 million pixels, along with capture rates as high as 70 frames per minute in unlimited bursts.
It is bundled with Leaf Capture software, which includes a Live View feature, and uses Schneider AutoFocus Digital (AFD) lenses that have been specially developed for the system.
A 6x7cm touch screen on the back allows immediate control of all functions, including instant access to raw images. The camera itself is made from 'rugged airplane-grade aluminum', covered in a 'soft rubbery material'. There are three viewfinder options - waist-level, 90 degs prism and 45 degs prism - and the option to use a single battery, double battery, or 'FireWire + battery'.
