Hopefully the shift mechanism works much better than the Dmax that I ordered back in april of this year, you can tighten the brass thumb screws but it still shifts up and down.

So, it's a medium format camera??

4”x5” or 6x12cm; 6x9cm or according to CCD sensor size.

I'm very interested in Fotoman, particularly the 45sps. Regarding a rotating back, my Horseman L45PRO has the ability to rotate the back.

Sliding tabs positioned north and south on the standard secure the sprung frame containing the GG. The sprung GG component is secured by two locking arms that catch on stainless steel rods in the frame. Is this sprung component containing the GG what is referred to as a graflok back, or is it simply the sliding tabs that are attached to the standard?

Either way, the same mechanisms seem to be present on the Fotoman 45SPS. Why would this same manoeuvre not be possible? Fotoman_weiwei perhaps you could help explain further?

Kind regards,

Simon

That is one freaking ugly logo there -- it's too chunky, large, not to mention that it's being used inconsistently.... if they hired a real graphic designer they could brand themselves better to achieve a higher profit margin and success. The cursive blocky type just reinforces the perception that it's a cheap Chinese knock-off. I know this may be perceived as a minor point to the engineers here, but nevertheless, it's important in the marketplace because the camera does seem to be a quality piece of equipment and it is not cheap at all.

Dear Simon,

I hope you don`t mind if I help you instead of Fotoman_weiwei
As for now Fotoman 45SPS doesn`t have this mechanisms. The configuration of the camera doen`t allow it because of the hot shoe and the tripod mount.
But the newer model of 45SPS has a graflock back.
The older 45sps, that wei-wei posted earlier, is half price now.
