What I would really like is a similar product for a Hasselblad.

Didn't the 'Leaf' back fit the 500C? Don't think it was full frame though. I seem to remember some way of using a scanner with a plate camera to make large format images. Bit like a narrow slit focal plane shutter in principle. OK for static subjects I guess.

I'm sure PhaseOne made a back for the 500C as well. I looked at buying one but it was cheaper, then, to buy a house!

I ordered a Hasselblad to Nikon adapter from China a few years ago. It is totally manual and uses M setting on all Nikon SLR's and A or M on on the Dxxx cameras. Haven't tested it on the D850 yet to see how the lenses preform with 45 MP.

Interesting when Nikon have just announced the Z... Not that they will be much competition for each other! Thanks for bumping the thread, I had completely forgotten it.

I would love a unit to use on my Nikon F3.

I like the idea but! A while back I was asked to test a Pentax ME Super to see if it was worth selling. I tested it against one of my F5 bodies with a 24-70 f2.8 lens. It is only when using a modern AF-S lens on an older camera that one can see just how slow the F5's AF really is. The metering may have been state-of-the-art in 2006 but the D3 and D4 comfortably out perform it today. Let's not talk about frame rate, or focus points. The idea is attractive but why bother a current generation DSLR will be better in almost every respect. As far as I am concerned the best use for a film body is to shoot film.

I would expect this item to anything useful for day to day use. For me it seems like a quaint technology that allows people to use a film camera. I dont think that film holds much attraction for me these days.
