I know who makes that.... it's the same people who make dehydrated water, which I sent beginner backpackers to REI for all the time, when they start complaining
about the weight of their pack.

A full-frame (35mm emulating) digital camera that is mirrorless. IF it isn't ungodly expensive like Leica products are.

A very fast film like Delta 3200 in 4x5 and 8x10 sheets. Grain, sharpness, and gradation worries are largely irrelevant in large format work but the inability to combine fast shutter speeds and small apertures mean compromises in camera movement control, subject movement control, and depth of field.

I agree. I've been meaning to see what the push characteristics of HP5 are in larger formats. I'm told you can push that stuff up to ISO 6400 with few ill effects, and 1600-3200 are peachy. I've shot it myself at 1600 and 3200 and I like how it looks.

A lens iris with a built in shutter which would fit in a 4x5 technica style standard, that would allow me to use all my shutterless brass lenses.

+1, clip-on or other such shutters for the big brass lenses that have speeds other than 1/25 or Bulb would be nice.

Personally, I want focal plane 8x10 shutters and/or a new, revolving back, TTL aperture-priority Autoexposure focal-plane shuttered 4x5 RF or SLR with automatic diaphragm control. Make 4x5 a *real* handholdable format for decisive moment photography.

I've often thought about this, Mamiya ya a double cable release where one appears to be slightly shorter than the other, if you had a second shutter, trigger, and light, you could have a first shutter fire the first strobe and a second fire the second but only use one of the shutters for taking, so your burst would effectively be drawn out longer emulating the high speed sync feature. Never tested it though.

Speaking of Speed Graphic shutters...

How about a new FP shutter that attaches via a Graflok back? Would be some kind of slight extension back with it's own GG and film loading, so it would replace the existing back on any standard camera w/ Graflok tabs. Should be doable with only a slight increase in extension.

New FP and large shutters will be Photo-electric glass not mechanical.
