Digital Backs for the Bronica SQ Ai anyone???

modoimage · 28th March 2008

Hi folks:

I'm having a problem trying to locate anything that can make my SQ Ai into a digital medium format camera.

I know that there are adapters for the backs made by KaptureGroup, and another one that is of an Italian company.

It is a solution to mount a phase one back to the SQ Ai, but I am in no time soon willing to buy a piece of metal plate for $1500.00. That is just stupid...

Has any of you ever come across a cheap alternative to adapting to digital???

Please help....

if there is a 1500 plate to mount phaseone to the camera. thats a decent price.
there are so many mamiya rz 67 user wth the interface plate for phaseone, are they stupid?
on the contrary, i think they are making a lot of money.

using medium format digital back is not for cheap so i suggest you relook your shooting option if you want affordable and cheap.
at least not now.
