Re: filmscanners: DCS Pro back vs. Imacon 4040

["Mikael Risedal" <risedal@hotmail.com>]

Regarding ccd and camera back
The new Sinar. Light Phase, Imacon and Kodak  are all from now , using Kodak 
4040 ccd in their camera back. All are functional but with different 
results.
I got this message from a friend who have been testing all of them except 
the Kodak back.  Imacon + Sinar  can  also been   used in 4 shot mode for 
full color information. Kodak
and Light Phase can only be used as 1 shot.
Kodak  is much more mobile, it has 2 CF slots and LCD screen.
