Hey,

I saw a Sinar camera on the web today. I was wondering what their reputation is? Is it like leica? They seem pretty nice. The fact they are made in Switzerland seems like it automatically is high class stuff. (Ok, so I am a little biased because I am half swiss!)

But seriously, what is the reputation of this brand. I think they make the P slr camera? Is it something I will ever be able to afford?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know how many members here also work much with LF. You might get more informed answers over at LargeFormatPhotography.Info. Good luck!

They are very neutral :-)

Sinar has a great reputation, but the camera is essentially a light-proof bellows. You will want to get a nice Sinar or other lens, too.
