Cheap tethered solution (afi / hy6)
« on: March 14, 2011, 02:32:05 pm »

Hi Guys!

I was wondering if anyone could answer my question. I have searched around for a long time and haven't found much information. I'm looking for the cheapest digital back solution for an Hy6. Even if it's tethered only. I don't think any of the older tethered only backs would have an adapter fitting for the Hy6 as it was released only recently. But I was wondering if there was something I'm overlooking. I plan to mainly shoot film but I don't want to have to lug a digital camera with me to chimp my exposures. I will be using a meter but I still would like to see a shot or two (no polaroid back for hy6), before loading a couple of rolls with exposures that I won't end up liking.

Thanks

Kahl

I doubt there are any cheap solutions (under $5K). Probably one of the 22MP backs from Sinar or Leaf would be the best bet.

There is an AFi 5 for sale on ebay recently for about 4000 euro or best offer....
