Not Readily Seeing What I’m Looking For

NNN635538397353421245
I am looking for a digital back that meets the following requirements,

Fitment or adaptable to C22 or C33 camera body

6 X 6 cm image sensor

Answerable to BlueTooth signal from digital equivalent of Gossen LunaPro light meter to go from standby/ready to active mode when light meter readings are taken. Perhaps the Sekonic L-358.

Return to standby/ready after exposure.

No LCD screen

Touch screen for selection of film type emulation for such as Ektachrome 64 or Kodachrome in color film or Tri-X or T-Max in black and white.

Download of stored images via Thunderbolt or FireWire.

Determination of finished print size to be made outside the camera, no in camera cropping.

    - No back made will fit a C22 or C33.
    - There was only one back made that has a 6x6cm sensor, the Dicomed BigShot and it was made in the late 1990s and very few were sold.
    - Very very few backs are made without an LCD and those don't have a touch screen

    - All Phase One P, P+, IQ, IQ2, and Leaf Credo backs can use Thunderbolt or FireWire. The IQ/IQ2/Credo can also use USB3 which is faster and easier to find in modern computers.
    - All Phase One and Credo backs can emulate a large variety of looks using Capture One software. Since you don't want an LCD screen, and since the files shot are raw there is no need to determine this look before you hit the software.
    - All Phase One backs can be used in a mode which requires wakeup/standby/ready mode or in a mode which is always-ready.

    No idea what your application is, but I'd suggest, instead of trying to find a back that does everything you think you need, maybe you should work with a dealer to evaluate the backs that are available to see how well they fit your needs.

    If you're in the US we'd be glad to help with this. DigitalTransitions.com

    The only back that I know of the is larger than the current MF back is a scan back made by BetterLight. And that is designed for 4x5 field cameras, much larger than MF. But image time can be up to 10min.

    You can look at them at
