    Sinar P & P2 - differences?

    I have an opportunity to purchase a Sinar P2 8x10 back and bellows, but I have a 5x4 Sinar P.

    Are Sinar parts interchangeable between the two ?

    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    It should work just fine. I assume it is the metering 8x10 back as opposed to the bail arm one (that's the P2/P differential) Either way the rear frame will mount on the P bearer and the front of the bellows will couple to your front frame.

    As Ben said, there should be no problem.

    The 8x10 bellows are different between the metering back and non-metering backs on the 8x10 size bellows, so you don't want to buy the wrong bellows should you need another or a bag or something.

    All the 4x5 bellows work between every model.
