For the PRO-series Universal Bellows (BALPRO 1, BALPRO T/S, CASTBAL-PRO, and STACKPRO 1), NOVOFLEX offers the special lens head - Pyrite 4.5/90 (formerly known as Apo-Componon 4.5/90) - by Schneider Kreuznach. The lens head is apochromatic and digitally corrected, and it comes with a fixed, flat mount (pre-installed) for easy attachment to any BALPRO bellows. The package also includes the NOVOFLEX SON37 lens hood to prevent stray light.
The Schneider Kreuznach Pyrite 4.5/90 lens offers impressive flexibility when used with cameras of different sensor sizes, ranging from Micro Four Thirds (MFT), APS-C and 35mm full-frame sensors all the way up to medium format cameras and digital backs.
Whether you are duplicating slides or engaging in reprography, this lens delivers remarkably sharp and detailed images in any shooting situation. It is particularly suitable for reproducing flat originals as it exhibits no loss of sharpness or field curvature. The aperture setting is stepless but can be locked in any position.
For use with the Tilt/Shift Bellows System BALPRO T/S, the lens head provides ample reserves for Scheimpflug adjustment, thanks to its large image circle.
