I find the Hartblei quite interesting but I do not understand several points:
1) why would a motorized sliding back be more precise than a manually moved one?
I would expect that motors or cylinders to move the back cant be very strong - so I guess the sliding system itself must not be too tight to allow the motors to move the back - this is why I would wonder how you can achieve this and still have tighter tolerances.
The other question is-are tighter tolerances of any use. The Artec for example seems to work totally fine.
2) for use of non T/S longer lenses why would you not want to use a MF DSLR system with a nice viewfinder?
3) how much T/S capability do you have left when you are using T/S lenses which are designed for 35mm with a larger sensor?
The main arguments I see for the Hartblei is than can go very wide and relativly "low" cost compared to other tech cameras, but therefore you are very limited regarding T/S lenses - because you do not have any movements in the camera.
