“I’m Back”….or something like that? Can’t recall how it worked just the name
I think it was called " relais optik " ( not certain) , it consisted basically of an 4" x 5" pola back mounted on an F with instead of film a digital sensor.

JK , have they told you when you can expect the " I`m back" sensor ?...btw, I just realized that this is also a Swiss offering, could it be the same company that I  mentioned ?

I have it installed in my Nikon F2 Photomic since mid-June.  
There are design limitations and compromises as it uses a 4/3 sized sensor but it makes interesting images from a film camera I love holding and using but would not buy film to put in it!  Processing costs as well as general environmental considerations are horrendous.

There are some design changes I would like to make but it is difficult to get details and also spare cables.  I want a spare cable so I can modify the cable unit to work better on the camera but I am having difficulty ordering one from them.

It is probably a winter project for me.
