Leaf: Leaf Valeo Wi Series: Valeo 22Wi, Valeo 17Wi

The Leaf Valeo Wireless, was introduced with the Leaf Valeo 22Wi and Leaf Valeo 17Wi, with resolutions of 22 and 17 million pixels respectively. For top professional photographers, both backs contain a large 3:4 format ratio CCD, wireless-display with Portable Power, unmatched fast Leaf Valeo 22Wi & Leaf Valeo 17Wi capture rate and In-Studio: Large Format Power.
