this is awesome! I’ve wanted to go down this same route and make either a fully custom camera or a digital back for a medium or large format camera, but the amount of expertise and expense involved in making even a relatively simple scanner back (much less a full CCD camera) is daunting. til then, I suppose I can always do an 8mm cinema camera if I get that kind of itch: youtu.be/cuwTC194y_8

apparently the CinePi XL sensor is already available and supported by CineMate, and there’s also an even more advanced sensor sporadically available and also supported…

fuck. a 1.2” Sony sensor plus manual controls taken together are more than good enough for still photography alongside cinema use. I must not start a photography project, I will go bankrupt

but I really want to design a camera system around this!
