Sinar now “Open” system!
Hmmm, very interesting tidbit: By way of the British Journal of Photography, we’ve learned that Sinar is now opening their P3 and Artec systems to other MFDB’s. They’re releasing adapters in various mounts and I think this is a smart move for them. View and plate cameras have never had anywhere near the lens/body communication of DSLR’s, so what really is the end difference to using another mfr’s back? It’s kind of like using another brand of film, really, and if this allows Sinar to survive, then maybe they can keep doing what they do so well: make kick ass view cameras.
