Best Product of the year 2000/2001:
Sinarback System with Sinar Macroscan
Sinar CyberKit
Digital high-end goes mobile. Sinar has built its own small computer as capture unit for on location. The Sinar Cyber Kit stores more than 1600 pictures in one session. Sinar becomes the leader in digital high-end photography.
2001 - Sinarback HR with Microscanning
The patented piezo plate of the Sinarback allows high precision moving in half-pixel steps. Together with the Sinar Macroscan the resolution is increased to 78 million pixels. Together with the new high resolution lenses Sinar again offers the highest quality of a digital system.
Sinarback 44
A new sensor with 16 million pixels in the 1-shot or 4-shot mode and 66 million pixels with microscanning. The new Sinarback 44 is compatible with most medium format cameras and also with the Sinar system including Macroscan.
2002 - Sinar p3
True to the tradition of the Sinar p line of view cameras, the Sinar p3 too, is equipped with highly precise mechanisms. In keeping with the requirements of digital photography, the dimensions of the new camera have been significantly reduced without sacrificing any of this traditional precision. Of course the Sinar p3 camera too, is compatible with the Sinar System.
Sinarback 54 (Worldrecord with more than 22 Mio. pixels)
Developed by Kodak in cooperation with Sinar, the KAF-22000CE sensor features a new color pigmentation for the best possible color stability and for a greater dynamic range. The new Sinarback 54 can be adapted to practically all medium format cameras. This eliminates the limitation to a specific camera system. To change the camera, all the photographer needs to do is to change adapter boards. That makes it possible to achieve the maximum resolution of more than 22 million pixels with most modern medium format cameras practically without the need for increased focal lengths. The Sinarback 54 can be used universally with most computers without modifications.

Introduction of the Firewire Technology at Sinarback 43 and Sinarback 54
With the fast and practical Firewire connection, the new Sinarback 43 and Sinarback 54 can be controlled from a portable Macintosh Powerbook or from any Desktop Mac with Firewire provision (for specifications see technical data) with only a single cable. Both the power supply as well as the data transmission take place via Firewire.
Thanks to the modular construction of the Sinar digital system, Sinarback 43 and Sinarback 54 can be attached to practically all medium format cameras by simply changing an adapter board, and it is perfectly suitable, of course, for the Sinar camera system itself.
Sinar m
The new Sinar m is not only an ideal shutter system for the Sinar p3 view camera system but also a very modular multipurpose camera body. The Sinar m body and the first set of accessories are the first available components of Sinar´s new 35mm/medium format/view camera system, that were first shown as a concept at Photokina 2002. The new system is available for immediate delivery and is of great interest to professional photographers looking for a system solution to their digital needs. This will allow the use of digital view camera lenses and already purchased medium format and 35mm lenses.
The Sinar m offers an enormous spectrum of application possibilities and it is optimally integrated into the Sinar system. It is in combination with Sinarback digital backs that the new Sinar m shows its true greatness.
