It can be mounted to any 4×5 with the Graflok connection.

Interesting concept but one has to use lens designed for digital sensor to take full advantage of this system.

I think this guy is out of business or almost out of business. it was good technology when it was “new technology”. Unfortunately, and much to my chagrin, there has been little technology improvement for digital backs, for large format, which I sort of get, but still wish there was a current technology option.

I think the option I am looking at is a Linhof Techno with a Phase One Achromatic digital back. Stupid expensive yes, but stupid good on image quality. This is the only combo I have found that will get close to large format with current technology.

Interesting concept. I had been toying of the idea of a sinar P3. The only thing about fotodiox is that if the build quality is as duff as all the 7 elinchrom fit soft boxes I have from them, then I dont think I would want to go there.

It’s not the exact same thing, though. With a panorama, you’re moving the lens – with this, you’re moving the sensor. It’s like a glorified (and extremely cheap) T/S lens from Schneider.

Detail. Distortion. Enlargement potential.

Schneider, Fujinon and Rodenstock typically dick all over any 35mm offering.
