I've seen professional photogs using custom made 6x9 rangefinders to shoot 120, but this is the first time I see film rangefinder modified to take digital back.

The digital back may cost as much as a small car. This set-up would be good for someone who already is using such a back with another camera.

why would you do that to a lovely 6 ?? :bang:

A professional photographer who needs digital backs that provide very detailed digital images may want such a set-up if a MF RF camera is also needed somehow. Else, it is a waste of a good film camera.

why? let me think... 80MP digital back, best lenses in medium format world, all attached to very portable system.
Interesting who got that lovely 7II modified for V back.

The camera and lenses are still for sale. Nobody bought them so far.

That listing had me laughing. Seller modifies the camera, then someone asks if it can be used with film. You just can't satisfy everyone.

It's not a Hasselblad CFV Back, so I think it would require a tethered laptop to function.
Not very portable..........

Yes his blog is pretty impressive.
The PhaseOne H10 is a tethered back, utilizing a Dalsa 11MPx Sensor. Street value about 2K. Very noisy over ISO100, I have read.
Interesting combo, could be good for studio.

I somehow stumbled on this thread because I think the 6 would be great with a MF digital back option.
That being said.. the Hasselblad can be use with either (film or digital) no modifications.:angel:
BTW the only cable my Leaf Aptus needs is a PC to the shutter, then the flash is run from the back. Although the 500cm has a mechanism that comes out and punches a slot on the Leaf-Back also. Sync is sometimes quirky.
