Hi, I live in Italy.
The Digiflex is 24x36 with mechanical focal plane shutter, for example I use it with cfv-16 and losing a little part of sensor where it appears black.
To convert leica lens in nikon, you need to replace the mount:

Automatic opening aperture is not allowed using hasselblad lens or Leica but is possible to open wide for focus and then set the aperture.
The Digiflex allows you to shoot without a tripod with slower time, this is praticaly impossible with 500cm
You can use Hassy lens with tilt/shift adapter to Nikon F mount.

Sample of my shoot with Elmarit 60 macro on CFV 16

Hello,
Is this camera still for sale or has it been sold? If it's still available would you ship to the US?
Thank you!
 
Hi Ottavio,
No worries, I figured it was most likely already sold. Congrats on the sale, and thanks for getting back to me!

Cheers,
Charles
 
Hi Joseph,
If it is to experiment and have fun, the Digiflex is a great camera, but to date 2020, using a 24x36mm digital back does not make much sense. A modern DSLR can give you many satisfactions.
