    Re: Canon Eos Adaptor Plate to fit View Camera

    I have an as-new EOS to 4x5 sliding adapter I'm not using if anyone is interested, it's this one:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Moveable-Adapter...item4837c76589

    If memory serves it has about 40mm of movement, so you can get two full frames for stitching. The only reason I'm not using it is that after I tried it I built my own rig that has a lot more movement, both vertically and horizontally. (I have a mill and do some machine work.) Of course more movement means you get into sensor shadowing, but it's still a neat little gizmo.

    Thanks for posting the link. Unfortunately these don't fit my Wista, not (Graflok type) but gives me plenty of clues how to make a complete back.

    Mine's a 45DX a wooden field camera, they have a hinged back but the focus screen etc isn't Graflok but opens wide enough to take Wista RF holders.

    [QUOTE=VictoriaPerelet;509025]You can make one yourself from Canon 21mm macro tube and Sinar board (grand total of ~+-$15).

    Quite useful for lighting setup and precise focus plane alignment - much more convenient/precise than polaroid. On cameras like Sinar P2 you can get 4x4" stitch with serious megapixels in it.

    hi victoria

    how do you do "precise focus plane adjustment"
    dose the 21mm tube put the chip right on the film plane
    please explain

    thanks
