So I went to a demo of Phase One's P25 back for 645 and I am actually considering leasing one of these babies. I used to love 6x6 and the quality of the 22mp images are just outstanding!!!! First step to consider is to rent one for my trip to NY/Bahamas for my son's wedding.

    Wow. I'm really impressed by how it handles the range of light in this shot. Still, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages for someone like me. Cost (of course!), file size, merely OK noise levels, cumbersome, and a resolution I just wouldn't take advantage of. And boy, am i glad to be able to say that! I'd hate to have your envy of a $17,000 camera, Charles!

    Last night at the demo I took a handful of shots and ran them trough C1 and PS. I was amazed to see that the areas I thought were blown were not actually maxed out. The specs claim 12 f-stops of dynamic range and I think I buy into that. The AD stage is 16bits vs the 12bit of the pro dslrs.

    And I wish it was the $17k model that I was lusting after :cry

    Uh-oh. You're in trouble. naughty.gif. By the way, thanks for posting this thread. I probably wouldn't have paid much attention to this equipment, if you hadn't. thumb.gif
