The Mamiya DM56
Bringing Together the World’s Professional Imaging Leaders
No Constraints
Mamiya has partnered with fellow professional photographic industry world leaders Schneider,
Phase One and Leaf to produce the best of all worlds – to produce two new professional
digital cameras, the DM33 and DM56, designed to deliver the highest attainable image quality
in most any professional photography situation.
Featuring 56 megapixel sensors precision-matched with the world’s greatest optics results in
exquisitely detailed image files, even when harshly cropped. The large sensors (up to 56mm)
coupled with a lush 16 bit/channel color palette, provide exceptional color accuracy and rich
high dynamic range photographs in just a single capture. Other digital camera systems simply
cannot compare!
Shutter Technology Breakthrough
The heart of the DM56 systems is the new “DF” camera-core technology,
developed by Mamiya, featuring two user-selectable shutter systems - leaf or focal plane.
In demanding daylight situations, photographers can use one of three new leaf-shuttered lenses
(55mm, 80mm, 110mm), designed by Schneider-Kreuznach and manufactured by Mamiya, for
predictable high speed flash synchronization to fill-in or overpower even the brightest ambient
light. For more conventional situations, photographers can choose to use one of 15 other
world-class Mamiya optics, from 28mm to 300mm APO, designed for use with the cameras’
focal plane shutter system.
Regardless of shutter choice, photographers can look forward to the DM56’s faster autofocus
technology, as well as improved ergonomics and performance accuracy.
World’s Widest Pro Software Compatibility
Mamiya recognizes that stellar camera performance is of little value without equally powerful
software options. That is why Mamiya offers photographers the flexibility of processing files
using either of the included software solutions: Capture One by Phase One or Leaf Capture, or
you can choose to use Adobe Lightroom (not included) allowing the widest variety of
professional processing software options available.
Proven Professionalism
For over 50 years, Mamiya has been a name synonymous with excellence and innovation in
professional photographic cameras and lenses. Mamiya’s dedication to the professional market,
through reliability and unique design, has made Mamiya the choice of professional
photographers throughout the world. Mamiya continues to be a pioneer by continually
improving and refining the finest professional photographic products with state-of-art
advancements such as superior apochromatic and digital lens technologies as well as practical,
ergonomic camera design and function.
Proven Modular Systems
The Mamiya DM56 continue Mamiya’s reputation of perfecting the professional modular
camera system for the ultimate in versatility. Mix-and-match components as needed – perhaps
a traditional DM configuration today; then if you wish, use it with a Mamiya RZ or 3rd-party
view camera system tomorrow (via optional adapters).
