Apart from Marc Williams on this forum - no one has ever said anything about the system. Hence my comment. However - I wil refrain from such outlandish comments in future. I stand corrected.If you are looking for a medium format studio camera, the Fuji GX680 series is the coolest by far. Is it the most practical? Probably not. But it is a really amazing system. I don't think you will be able to fit any digital backs on it, other than the one that they made for it (which I am not sure ever actually made it into production). The RZ is a very practical studio camera -- I don't know about it being an undiscovered jewel though...the RZ/RB have been among the most popular medium format professional cameras for decades! There are lot of pros who shoot digital backs with them just because of that fact -- they are so damn used to them.
Thierry, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the MacroScan worked only for backs upto the 43H/44H. Are the 54S/54M/54H also supported? The KaptureGroup adapter works only with 22/39MP backs.Alright, that's not the Sinar Macroscan.

Hi.
1. From my experience a 6x4.5 film scanned with Nikon 9000 is equal a 22 mega pixels back. Is there any reason to use a 22 mega pixels digital back on a Mamia RZ67 IID? Why a digital sensor will outperform a larger 6x7 film?
2. I have a Sinarback 54M with Contax 645 adapter attached to my Contax 645.
How to use a moveable Contax 645 Back (Widepan made in china) attached to Sinar P2 4x5 camera? I'm completely new to moveable backs, are they worth the money? Is this for still life subjects or whatever else?
Should I better buy a 4/16 back, like a Sinarback 54H?
Thank
