I have said it before and I will say it again: This is not a tool for pixel-peepers! Use a recent mirrorless for that, the I’m Back 35 is all about the look, atmosphere, and a little bit of artistry. Check the Kickstarter campaign page for more details. If you want to integrate it even tighter, there are a bunch of dedicated back plates for a kind of seamless look’n’feel. There is a vast amount of supported cameras, so it is very likely that your camera will fit the I’m Back 35 system. That way, even though the sensor is somewhat tiny, the system does not introduce any crop. The ground glass is on double duty here: it captures the incoming light from the lens and offers a focus plane for the sensor behind. Add the I’m Back 35 to it and you’ll be rewarded with vintage-looking, dreamy footage. Use your beloved vintage lenses from back in the day and bring your old camera, too. So what exactly is this thing? Since we’re talking about old(ish) analogue cameras, the I’m Back 35 is all about transporting old but trusted tech into the modern age: it acts as a digital back and substitutes the actual film stock with a ground glass and a sensor. Now it’s 2020 and we’re about to see the third version of the I’m Back back: This time labeled I’m Back 35.
The next iteration was all about medium format cameras, again the old, analogue ones. The I’m Back digital back for old analogue SLR cameras was quite popular when it first hit the market back in 2018 but that didn’t stop Samuel and his team to go back to the drawing board to develop a new version. Different makes and models of supported analogue SRL cameras.
