Has anyone ever found a way to convert a sinar into a 11x14.Thank you for your time.

The very next post is about a 30x40cm Sinar. I just speculated about what it might be in that post. This would be a bit larger than 11x14". It would cost you but Sinar might do it or have a change kit on special order. I don't know if they ever do it but you'd have to call. Their change kits are so simple that it would not be all that difficult to adapt someone else's 11x14 back to a Sinar that is sturdy enough to take it...the P or P2 designed for heavier camera configurations. Again, here I am speculating.

Sinar sold an 11x14 option. Have you tried asking them about it?

Bob, as usual, is right. I remember seeing an 11x14 Sinar P at Ken Hansen Photographic in New York in the late 1980s. It did not look like a custom after market job
