New Sinar digital back to 192MP

That will make the already ultra portable GX680 even more handy. I'm almost happy that there's no way I can afford it :ROTFL:
Up to 288MB 49MP files. That would mean around 1GB when going all out and shooting 192MP, right? 1,000 shots on a 1TB drive? This must be a record of some kind

What is the advantage over the Hassy H4D-200MS?

That it can be fitted on Sinar p3/p2/p/x view cameras, Sinar m, Sinar Hy6, Sinarcam 2; Contax 645 AF; Fuji GX 680 I, II, III; Hasselblad V, H1, H2; Mamiya RZ 67/Pro II, RB 67, 645 AFD, AFD II, 645 Super, Pro, Pro6008, 6008 Integral, 6008 Integral2, 6008 AF and any non-Sinar 4x5“ view cameras via Graflock adapter?
:clap:
I have a (yaw-free Sinar) sliding back to put my Hasselblad back on a Sinar P3... what else would you need in a studio?
I also have the yaw-free sliding back for my Sinar 54H, so if anyone would like to send me both of these Multi-Shot digital backs, I would be glad to play with them?

Yes, seems like something similar to Hassy's multishot, without understanding either fully I thought the Hassy took 4 shots and combined whereas this takes 16 with the claim that the end result is a full-colour-per-pixel sampling. Must be great for repro and product work.

The Sinar also has a 4-shot mode, possibly similar to the Hasselblad. That's what creates the 192MP files.

So the back shifts the sensor 1/2 pixels left, up, and right to get 192MP image. At the same time it shifts the sensor 1 pixel to take a red, green, and blue exposure at each position so there is not need for Bayer interpolation.
I have used 16-shot cameras and there is no real difference in color between the Bayer and real color images. There is a difference in the added resolution of the half-pixel shift.
The sensors have, I believe, groups of 4 sensor sites (with green, green, red and blue filters) which make up each pixel... and conventional multi-shot backs move the sensor, but the Hasselblad rep told me that the Hasselblad 200Mpx MS system simply moves the filter mask, so each of the 4 sensor sites becomes a full pixel.
