    6x12 back, Linhof vs. Sinar vs. Horseman, any opinions

    From what I recall the long dimension on the Horseman 6x12 back is actually 110m m not 120mm. The Linhof back, and possibly the Sinar back, produces a full 120mm wide image.

    Sinar is about 112mm not 120mm.

    6x12 back, Linhof vs. Sinar vs. Horseman, any opinions

    Sinar 6x12 width is 112 mm - I remember it from doubling the width of Hasselblad 6x6 which is 56 mm square... The advantages of the Sinar back over the Horseman (I use both, though) is a little wider film gate, the ease of not having to remove the gg between shots, and 5 different formats built into one back - you can actually change the format between frames! If the last option is not important to you, why not consider buying a Sinar Vario back instead?
