Probably not . . .

But, is there any chance that (with or without modification) an Arca 141mm lens board would fit in a Sinar standard? They are so close to the same size.

Has anyone run across an reduction adapter to use Arca 110mm lens boards on a Sinar camera?

Wow Greg, those are nice!

I was going to suggest a wood version made years ago by a fellow in Michigan. He made me a Deardorff to Sinar that has worked for me even with very heavy lenses. Very inexpensive at that time.

International shipping is going up next year.

When I bought my 141mm Arca F-Line Classic I tried attaching my Sinar boards to it, and they would not fit (despite appearing to be virtually identical in size). I assume the reverse is true...

I would agree with Greg's advice. With the exception of a monster 355mm Symmar, all of my lenses are mounted on Technika boards in order to use them with an Arca-Swiss, Zone VI, etc. Works very well, and makes for one less thing to concern myself with.

FWIW,

Ed

Arca made an Arca 110 to Sinar board, pretty rare, I bought the 2 I found, still have 1, works perfectly

I have a Sinar to 110 adapter for Canham, unsure if that would work for AS though.
