Film back for Digiwide

Recommended Posts

<p>Ok Ok don't flame me but I've been wondering for a ages now, (and it's not my specialist area of knowledge) but does anyone out there have a notion of what kind of film back I might be use on my Horseman Digiwide? <br>

I've talked with a few colleagues and some think it might be possible but we can't seem to find what might work. FYI the Digiwide is a V-back system, so if anyone out there with one of these or a Digiflex has tried with success let me know. I dont mind if it's an ugly kluge to make it work (and a bit of guess work). </p>

<p>Thanks in advance ... </p>

<p>Could check this link to the press release for that camera. From the press release it reads that it is new design, so I don't think you will find a film back for that model.</p>

<p>Now that Horseman is out of business, that info will be hard to find. You could ask the same question on the Yahoo group "617", as someone from Horseman is on there to answer questions all the time.</p>

<p>thanks Karl,<br>

i already have these links and others and obviously the literature that came with my Horseman. It's a fiarly new design -but around 2000. The difficulty is that this body doesn't signal a standard (modern) film back with frame advance (only digi sync for digi back) so I need a back that is so analogue that I can fire and then wind one manually without it caring and knowing or guessing to the next frame. Horseman wouldn't have considered it as the frame size is simliar to a standard 35mm gate but it would give me a diferent range of film options than standard 35mm.<br>

will try the forum but if any Horseman users of this or any experienced Blad users can point me to an appropriate back that would be great.<br>

cheers,</p>
