Quite simple Ellis. There is no frame counter.
Want to try and figure out how much film is left after switching formats in the middle of the roll?

Guess I was wrong, Bob. I based my answer on my Sinar 6x7 back which has a fra me counter. Thank you for the correction.
Biases, please. Bob, I'm guessing that you market a product that competes with the Sinar? If so, should Danny be considering it? I've always been intrigued by the Sinar's multiformat option but I can also see the downside of figuring out how many shots you've got left. . . .
No Linhof does not market multiformat backs.
We do have single format roll backs for Graflock back 45 cameras in 35mm, 6c6cm, 6x7cm, 6x9cm and true 6x12cm (56x120mm as opposed to Sinars and most other 56 x 111 or 112cm).
We also have the Linhof Rapid Rollex slide in backs in 6x7cm for 45 and 23 cameras. We also have the 50' 5" roll back with motorized advance 1FPS, and vacuumn but that can only mount on a Technika or Aero Technika.
So we don't really have anything similar to the Sinar back.
Many thanks, gentlemen, for your valuable replies. I'm going to go with my initial thought and get the Sinar zoom back. All of those sizes in one back makes it the real choice for me. I'll wait to find an excellent used one from someone that I can trust, and from whom I can get a 30-day guarantee just in case any problems show up after using it.
Happy Holidays!
SINAR ZOOM 2
Even if you switch formats in the middle of a roll, you allways have the lenght (in cm) of film available both in 120 and 220. I am very happy with my SINAR ZOOM 2.The only thing I dislike is the price.

will I be able to use this film back with the Shen-Hao TZ45-IIB without removing the ground glass?
