New Sinar arTec camera

[thsinar]

hi Willem,

- the 23mm is not a typo: there is a 23mm lens in preparation.

- Yes, you can of course use your eMotion 75.

Best regards,
Thierry

Does the 23 mm  lens mean 24 or 28?
Just curious wether Sinar is now also using Schneiders beside the Rodenstocks.

And I can use e-75 Hy6 back as well?

Regards,

Willem.

Quick question for Thierry and Rainer,
as I already have a revolving adapter with my e-75LV,
how does that work with the revolving adapter for the arTec?

Regards,
Willem.

Sinar announced today a new architecture camera called "arTec".

It was developed together with architecture photographer Rainer Viertlböck who gave his input for the necessary features for his ideal camera.

This looks great but will it be possible to use a Phaseone back on this camera?

Cheers,
Bernard

Very Good...now something to spend even more $$ on

There is a 0-click and locking system to avoid this.

Thierry

Tilt movements also opens up the possibility of losing exact plane-parallelism.
Looking forward to hearing how Sinar has implemented the tilt mechanism.

Willem,

no problem, you can use it directly on the arTec, it is the same mount.

I think there will be some Alpa's for sale in the near future!

Thierry,

I'm trying to figure out if a simultaneous tilt and swing is possible.

What is that lever at the top of the camera for?

Thanks,
Billy

Dear Bernard,

Not any plans yet to mount PO backs.

Thierry,

for those with Alpa mounted lenses already, will there be an adapter plate for those lenses? If not will they be 'easily' re-mounted for this camera and would that be cost effective?

Wow,

I like that even better!

Just to clarify, is the rotating adapter the means by which rotation is possible? In other words, the camera itself doesn't support rotation, just the adapter? This would seem like an elegant solution.

although i am still not thierry... but:

you can tilt the lens in two directions ( +/- ) and turn around the tilt mechanism 360 degrees.
so all tilt and swing possibilities are at the same time possible ,- till +/- 5 deg.


the lever at the top is to unlock the sliding back. it also has the function, that horizontal movements which have been applied during the image composing on the ground glass, are automatically taken over at exactly the same position if you slide the sensor in front of the lens. great feature i.m.o.

Rainer, I'm sure your jumping in to answer questions is welcomed by everyone.

Sorry, I don't quite follow
since I don't see a second rotation point for swinging while tilting.

A side view:

[thsinar]

Graham,

there are actually 3 rotations we are speaking about here:

- revolving of the back with the revolving adapter

- rotation (360°) of the whole camera at the base/tripod mount

- rotation (360°) of the lens board where the tilt/swing is located

Best regards

if you rotate the lens board e.g. for 45 degr. the result is a Scheimpflug
in horizontal and at the same time in vertical direction, so this equals a combined tilt and swing.

[Graham Mitchell]

- revolving of the back with the revolving adapter

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I meant rotation of the back. The other two seem straight forward.

no problem, Graham.

Hi Thierry,

any answer on the Alpa lens query?
