I LOVE the idea of 4x10. Cutting film shouldn't be a problem, just use a good rotary cutter with a preset. 2.5:1 has that cine feel to it, and in a pinch the neg is large enough to crop to a 4x5 if the scene so requires.
On the low end there's Shen-Hao. Badger lists it for $1595.

What's really interesting with the Shen-Hao offering is that there seems to be backs available for 5x7 as well as 6x17 rollfilm. So the rear standard is slightly oversized.
Of course, if you really want to splash out there's always Ebony SW410 -lists for $6095 at Badger.
If you have a sensitive wallet or compulsive buyer disorder, close your eyes now.
Is it possible to make some sort of digital back adapter so one can achieve by moving/shifting DB to cover 4x10 something like an Alpa XY and such?
