Leaf Aptus-II 12R medium format 80mp digital back for Hasselblad V
Check out all the New Arrivals
Condition report:
The Leaf Aptus II 12R is a medium format digital back for Hasselblad V mount bodies. The 80 megapixel sensor measures a whopping 54x41mm and can be rotated in its housing to change between portrait and landscape shooting mode. Originally released in 2010 and back then it cost over 32.000 dollars new. Can be made to fit most popular systems like many Hasselblad V series, Mamiya RB and RZ, Fuji 680 and even mounted on large format with special plate adapters. Comes in Hasselblad V mount as standard. Nowadays a lot of much more affordable mirrorless medium format systems are out but those actually don’t house ”true medium format” sensors mostly. Despite being a bit older this system still keeps up with todays standards in terms of resoulution and most importantly: color reproduction. The colors out of this system are amazing and on top of that you get a ton of dynamic range to work with. The rotating back feature, just like on the Mamiya RB and RZ systems, can be very helpful on especially a Hasselblad. You can change the 5:4 aspect ratio without the need to regrip the camera or use a prism finder. The back uses a very intuitive OS system which can be scrolled through easily without having to grab a manual, everthing is layed out very clear and the touch screen and pen make it very easy to navigate through. Uses a single CF card slot for storage and has Firewire connectivity below the battery compartment.
The back was tested by our team in combination with a 500C/M camera. Everything works as far as we can see and test and it is actually also very usuable when working handheld, nailing focus however can be a bit tricky when shooting wide open we found so a good focusing screen or maybe loupe finder is recommended. This digital back needs its own batteries. 2 are supplied with the kit but these will not have the same performance as new ones. We have tested the back for a full 2 days and used every battery empty, shot about 100 images per charge. You will maybe need more batteries when working on location, but of course often used with a continuous power adapter in studio scenarios (not supplied with kit). The kit further comes with a coiled release cord that plugs into the X-sync port on your Carl Zeiss Hasselblad lenses, this will trigger the back. Charger included as well as a protective case, conpendiium like LCD hood, touch pen and a plastic bag full of various masks, might not all be for this system but we will include everything we got with it for free.
This system was tested extensively and we could not found any issues or damages that influence the usuability. The sensor looks relatively clean but would maybe benefit from a professional clean out of precaution and to be good for a long period to come. Because of the nature (age) of this product we can not provide an extended period of warranty. The item can be returned within 14 days upon arrival if its not to your liking.

What’s an OUTLET product?
You are currently viewing an outlet product. All products we sell go through a series of critical testing by our in-house technicians. Items that do not pass these tests get either serviced by us or one of our partner service centers. A product being marked as outlet does not directly mean it’s unusuable. In some occasions we decide to sell something as-is because of various reasons:
- * The product still is functional, but with remarks or limitations.
- * The product is mainly aimed at collectors for decorative purposes.
- * The product is a digital camera or lens, in which we don’t specialize.
- * The product will need an economically unprofitable repair, but still has many valuable parts or purpose for others with their own repair attempt.
OUTLET items are sold for heavily reduced prices. They are not serviced or cleaned to perfection. They therefore come without any warranty.
