Overview
The Leaf® Aptus™ digital camera back is the world’s first camera back that
includes a built-in (6×7 cm) LCD screen and an innovative graphic user
interface. An integrated battery and compact flash (CF) storage card
facilitate shooting. New hardware offers continuous non-stop shooting and
a faster capture rate. These shooting capabilities, combined with large
storage options, give professionals the flexibility to meet the most
demanding shooting situations. A new raw HDR format that uses lossless
compression to reduce file size and a completely new Leaf Capture
application enhance workflow and teamwork both on location and in the
studio.
This user guide explains how to set up the camera back for first-time use,
take a shot, evaluate it, and edit it.
