film, not digital.

Read the subject line.

read the name of the newsgroup.

You f***ing idiot! Why do you think I put the words "digital back"
into the heading?

Don't you know what a digital back is?

i do, but don't expect to find one that's any good a price you can
afford.

Just look at this one, for example (one of many).

junk. laughably so.

why bother using a 4x5 camera if you're only going to mount an slr on
the back?

or this one

that article is almost 20 years old, but at least they used a mac,
except that particular mac is long discontinued, so even if you can
find the back, it won't do you any good.

here's a bunch of backs, using that 'new high-speed usb 2' technology:

the cheaper ones have less resolution than modern slrs and their top of
the line model is about what a medium format camera can do. and then
there's that perfectly still subject problem.
