Hi,
I'm contemplating a move to medium format and have been thinking about this camera....just wondered if anyone here has any experience with it.

Hi Eric,

This is the quiet before the storm. In September the nee Hy6 Sinar and the Leaf siblings will be in the hands of reviewers. Soon there will be a lot of activity. Meanwhile I agree we would like to hear from people.

It's going to arrive next week and I have also purchased a p20 back.... stay tuned!!

Congratulations Eric!

I'm dying to see it! For sure I'll come to S.F. to celebrate the new camera and visit the other guys too! Leonardo, now established in New York, has a Phase One back too. He'll be happy to have a brother in arms, so to speak. (Leornardo, BTW has done a lot of war photography in South America, where you not only need to protect yourself from mosquito, lens fungus and rain but also from real live bullets!)

Sounds great Asher. It's supposed to arrive on Tuesday next week. Right now I'll only have the 80mm 2.8 lens to work with.

Watch for a bunch more of my Leica and Canon stuff to pop up on the For Sale board like Wednesday next week! Seriously I'm going to have to drop a lot of that stuff to cover the cost of Rollei and back.
