I’m Back, the company who used Kickstarter to develop a digital back for particular TLR and 35mm film cameras, is developing a new system that does away with the earlier models’ bulky attachments and contains all of the electronics inside a film canister-sized unit that fits inside the camera. They’ve raised a crap-ton of money so far to build it out, and from what the article says, they’re well on the way, with prototypes in testing and additional elements in development based on user feedback: a battery and external screen of some kind. This kind of thing would be awesome if I was absolutely in love with one of my 35mm film cameras; at this point it’s still easier to find a lens adapter to put old glass on a digital camera for the same basic effect. I would, however, love an internal system like this for my TLR cameras, because they are more fun to play with. (previously, previously)
