Before the new Phase One 100MP (good grief!) back announcement usurps every other thread this week, I wanted to thank everyone again for their input so far on my quest for choosing a MFDB for my Contax 645. As a result, I have narrowed my choice down to three backs: The Phase One P45+, the Leaf 75, or the Sinar 75LV. The sensor dimensions, pixel size and likely overall image results are, I think, most likely fairly competitive on these three. I also very much appreciate the Leica S suggestion with a Contax lens adapter--that idea is haunting me more each day, though I know to get the wide angle field of view that I'm used to with my Contax 35mm lens, I would have to invest in Leica glass--which in this case would be twice as much as the camera! Still, it's amazing to me that a Leica S (006) can be had in the $4,000 range now.
My heart, so vulnerable to marketing, says get the P45+ and be done with it; my common-sense mind says get the Sinar at a far-less cost and get to know MFDB photography. Any more feedback would be welcome, and thanks again--
