Horseman SW612: A Premium 6x12 Medium Format System

This is an overview of the Horseman SW612 Medium Format Panoramic Camera System. Horseman has designed a complete 6x12 system in their SW-612, pairing six exceptional Rodenstock lenses (ranging from 35mm to 135mm) with their own fine roll film backs (available in three formats) and an accurate, bright viewfinder. The result is a supremely professional batteryless system camera, rugged and travellable with image quality that is enviable from even the best of digital cameras.
The stout body is designed with rubber grips, two camera strap lugs and a built-in spirit level. An optional lens guard mounts under the camera, while the finder with interchangeable masks mounts on the top-mounted "cold" accessory shoe.
Horseman's 120 roll film holders mate perfectly to the back of the camera, offering a choice of 6x7, 6x9, or 6x12 cm formats and an optional ground glass back for precise composition. Both the focusing scales and the spirit level are visible through the viewfinder.
Other accessories include a neckstrap and center neutral density filter to even out the exposure with wide angle lenses.
Compact and lightweight; 1.57kg, for camera, finder, 6x12 holder
6x12cm, the format of the future
Masks included with viewfinder for all 3 lenses
Optional groundglass back and lens guard
3 interchangeable film backs
Practical for shooting handheld!

Great overview of the Horseman sw612 system. I agree that it is an amazing setup for panoramic images. I too had to make the 35mm viewfinder mask like you have done.

Oh nice! Too bad accessories are rare to find, I guess the hunt adds fun to the overall experience lol.
The system is very well thought, and lens options are great

I've been coveting one of these for years. I have seen every equivalent and 3D printed copy and none come as close to what I'd call the perfection of this model. Not being able to afford to buy one I shall be making one. Your video helped me to get better idea of the design of this camera. Thanks
