- 22 Mega Pixel CCD
The 36mm x 48mm Dalsa CCD imaging sensor contains 22 million
active pixels (total 4008h x 5344v). The 14 bit A/D (Analog
to Digital) conversion records color information as 12-bit
per color channel, providing exceptional true-to-life color
accuracy. - ASIC
(Application Specific Integrated Circuit)
Data transfer from the Dalsa CCD sensor is processed in real-
time with its exclusively designed Application Specific Integrated
Circuit (ASIC). The advantage to the photographer is that image
data captured from the sensor is optimized for fast performance.
With a frame capture rate of 1.2 fps, it’s one of the fastest
22 Mega pixel digital Medium-Format capture backs in the industry.

The Mamiya ZD provides card slots for both Compact Flash (CF)
and Secure Data (SD). Approximately 100 images in Mamiya RAW
format can be stored onto a 4GB CF card.
- File Format
Images are captured in Mamiya RAW format, JPEG or both RAW and
JPEG. Three levels of image quality alone with image size are
easily selectable through the digital back’s intuitive
built-in software menus.
- Removable Low-Pass Filter
Utilizing an innovative cartridge type removable Low-Pass filter
(optional) the Mamiya ZD digital back offers photographers
a choice, depending on shooting conditions, whether to use
the filter or not. Mamiya Digital Photo Studio
