Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted March 13, 2017 Share #1 Posted March 13, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just noticed on Leica Rumors that there is a new adapter out for the Leica S007 to mate up with a Sinclair P Here My mate in KL offered me a Sinclair P just a few months back when I was in the market for a large format camera and I ended up buying a Wisner 4 x 5.....................should have bought the Sinclair instead. Anyway I want one, need one and want to know where I can buy one.............any ideas who have them?? Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Hi Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS, Take a look here Sinair Adapter for S007. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
John McMaster Posted March 13, 2017 Share #2 Posted March 13, 2017 The Sinar (note the spelling) adapter was announced over three years ago , look at the date on the link you posted. The P1/2/3 are studio cameras rather than excelling at location use, the original P is chrome which is a disaster in the studio! P2 and P3 were black and more refined. Due to them being designed for 5"x4" the available lenses are quite long, a 90mm wide angle on sheet film is a short tele on the S, but for packshots and the like it would be as versatile as they come....

Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted March 13, 2017 Share #3 Posted March 13, 2017 Have you mastered the Scheimpflug principle yet? john Yes I have.................just can get rid of the dust So for a field camera would you recommend a P2 or P3 and where can you get the adapters??

John McMaster Posted March 13, 2017 Share #4 Posted March 13, 2017 No, I would recommend a field camera for field use. The Sinar P range are monorail cameras primarily for the studio, you are unlikely to need their more extreme movements in the field. john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorenzoLandini Posted March 15, 2017 Share #5 Posted March 15, 2017 Neil- as John mentioned, the set up announced back in 2013 was more for studio photography rather then for field (landscape, etc.). For landscape and shooting on location Sinar has recently introduced the S3045 digital back that uses a sensor derived from the Leica S007 sensor and that can take both Sinar large format lenses and the S lenses through an adapter. The digital back works with IanTec camera body. Depending on your purpose one set up could be better than the other one. cheers, Lorenzo Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likaleica Posted March 16, 2017 Share #7 Posted March 16, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) But you are rather limited with lenses on the short end. 35mm I think is the shortest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynp Posted March 16, 2017 Share #8 Posted March 16, 2017 But you are rather limited with lenses on the short end. 35mm I think is the shortest.There is a 28mm lens for LanTec flat camera, it has a helicoid. Many years ago I used to own that lens on my Sinar -M. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
