Finally, I have a digital capture system that I can appreciate. I have to provide digital as part of my studio product photography business. I recently purchased a Hasselblad V series 39 mp back, and a sliding back adapter to fit my Sinar P-expert camera. It allows me to continue to use my standard studio work-flow for product photography. The (3rd party) adapter features a ground glass with crop marks for the digital sensor, and the adapter allows one to mount the digital back in either horizontal or vertical positions. A nice touch is that standard Hasselblad magifying hoods can be slid onto the ground glass portion of the adaptor to provide magnification for critical focusing. It is a relief to be able to make all my perspective and field of focus adjustments just as for film. Many of my jobs require film and digital, and with the Sinar, it is quite a simple task to reconfigure the camera with different lens and back for film. I find that my Schneider and Rodenstock lenses work great for digital, very sharp. For location, I can use it on my Hasselblad.
