Sinar creates adapter to mount DSLRs as digital backs

[Phil Indeblanc]

It would only work with very long lenses (if you want to focus to infinity) due to the distance to the sensor. Too, - even if possible - still limited due to the mirror housing (vignetting).
Phase One backs are detachable so a tech camera is the way to go here.
The X2 Pro is a solution in between... it is certainly not primarly for stitching in conjunction with a MF camera.

I wonder why Rod nor Shneider don't offer Macro longer than 150 or so...like a 210 or 240 or 300...?at least oone of them?

If someone made a lensboard with front mount for a RZ lens to mount, or even a canon(I know image circle issue)...That I might buy.

Hi,

if your view camera is a Sinar, you might mean this:

I have a 1:3 3:1 macro Sinaron 300mm... but this is a 50 degree LF lens. I have always opted for the longest macro I can get.

I have about 1.5m of Sinar bellows and rail ... the main problem with long macro lenses is the meters of extension you need.

These are great, but way to expensive for experimenting.

If anyone is interested in any of my kit... and is contemplating acquiring similar kit, please feel free to come and experiment.

Are you talking about the body kit or this last post with lens? Where are you located?
