Seems to be post in wrong forum, not 35mm film. I have seen proposed products like these for many years, be curious to see if it makes to market and at what price point.

$200 seems way to cheap for a decent sensor and supporting electronics.

Getting close to something that might have made sense 25 years ago?

Good grief, what an unwieldy contraption! For a couple of dollars I made a holder out of 1/8 inch hobby plywood that held my iPhone up to the eyepiece of my ON-1. Using a 1-4 focusing screen (all matte) the results are not too different.

Depends on the size of the sensor, a smart phone vs APS or Full Frame. How many MP? A mobile phone size sensor does not make sense for a 35mm camera, a 13mm is normal?

Another f@rt in a gale.
A device which, if it ever does materialise, will turn a (for instance) Nikkormat into a mess which does nothing well.
