Digital Backs For 120 Cameras?
I was just interested in knowing does any manufacture offer digital backs for medium format cameras, specifically the Mamiya RB 67 or Bronica ETR/S?

In April of 2008 Mamiya announced the ProSD Adapter HX702 which allows the use of the ZDb 22mp digital back on the RB67 Pro-S and Pro-SD bodies.
Note that the ZDb back was originally designed for the Mamiya 645 camera so that's the image size you'll get with it mounted on the RB67.
HX702, $1,499.00 at B&H.
22mp ZDb Digital back, $7,199.00 at B&H.
I found a digital back for a Bronica ETR/SI by MegaVision but its a 35mm format - the sensor measures 24mm x 36mm. Didn't find a price. http://www.mega-vision.com/
I suggest reading reviews of the Nikon D3x. It just might give you the results you're looking for.

Leaf makes digital backs, although I don't know if they have one that will mount on either of the brands you mention.
The fact that they start at $10,000 keeps too many people from buying them, and means most of the support is for Hasselblad bodies.
