If you are not after the highest resolution sensor then a 22MP or 33MP Leaf back will give you the cleanest images, cast wise.looking on the best DB for minimal lens cast... what do folks think?
thanks
that's a fantastic development, is it only a matter of time before we communication between tech cameras and backs? So LCC becomes a thing of the past. I know that these cameras are completely manual but add a few sensors running of the backs battery???If you go for an Aptus-II 5 or Aptus-II 7 you can also use the new feature that allows you to have the cast corrected in the back. You can read more about it here and here
Hi Guy,Dalsa sensors in general are the best at lens cast. So that would include Sinar not sure of the models though. Leaf they are all Dalsa. Hassy has the new 60 and than Phase p40,65 and all the new IQ backs as well. Need to avoid ones with micro lenses like the P30 and H31. Now the least amount of lens cast will be the crop sensors since they are cropped you simply won't see casts as bad. Now with LCC corrections almost any lens cast can be corrected. Now there are some Kodak sensors that are fine from both Phase and Hassy like the P45 P25 and if course the Hassy 39 and 50. I think that is the run of the backs you can use best on a tech cam. Now it really depends on what your looking for and what is the best software to correct that. I'm a C1 fan so that is Leaf and Phase for me.
What are you looking for as far as mpx and feature sets. The P45 will do a hour exposure but most Dalsa if not all will go 2 minutes max I believe. Maybe the Hassy 60 does 4 need to check that
BTW welcome to the forum
Very interesting indeed .If you are not after the highest resolution sensor then a 22MP or 33MP Leaf back will give you the cleanest images, cast wise.

Will post within 72 hours.Any news yet from the tests you and Doug were running on the various tech lenses on the IQ180?
I strongly believe this is a largely moot question.looking on the best DB for minimal lens cast... what do folks think?
thanks

But yes generally speaking (and echoing most posts above):
- Dalsa show less cast than Kodak
- Larger pixels show less cast than smaller pixels
- Microlensed pixels are to be avoided if at all possible

Doug, is there any chance to see a comparison between the new Schneider 28mm Super Digitar and the 32mm or other wide ones?Will post within 72 hours.
Tim - I got my back on Friday. So, far I'm pleasantly surprised at how good the LCC's are working to correct the images. I'm only shooting the 43 and I know you are interested in the 35. I really was expecting much worse. Still waiting to see Doug's test.Hi Guy,
Any news yet from the tests you and Doug were running on the various tech lenses on the IQ180?
Best
Tim
