Ok, we had some polls regarding our digital backs.
As I think some informations about view cameras are hard to find (and especially about shutter systems) I guess this kind of poll might be interesting for some.
Here I am, using Sinar P2 with P45+, 90% for product shots, table top and still life.
Copal mechanical shutters.
Sometimes I would want to have the posibility to operate the shutter from the distance, for example, but i find the electr(on)ic systems to be in their (prolonged) infancy, being pretty awkward to operate.
Other views welcomed.

I have just posted a very similar thread, about a day ago, and am trying to find out more info on the subject myself.
The information on electronic shutters is very limited on the web, and after doing some extensive searching I have still yet to find any real details.
I just got off the phone with Rick at Leaf tech support, and it appears that Leaf Capture only supports 2 shutter systems, the Schneider and the Rollei. The Schneider only goes up to 1/60th of a sec, which is doesnt cut it for me. There is lots of ambient light in my studio, and I usually shoot at 1/250th with strobes.
As far as the Rollei system goes, there is no information about it on their website. In fact their website doesn't even have a USA version, unless I just couldn't find it.
Rick wasn't able to give me the model name of the Rollei system, however he mentioned it was silver-grey colored. The only one I came across is the Lens Control S, at B&H, and it appears to be the exact same control as for the Schneider, and it's white.
Perhaps someone with hands on experience can shed some light on the subject?
