That's kind of what I'm talking about Steve - Live View is being touted as the second coming of Christ for digital backs and yet it sounds like they don't have any idea if it will even work as advertised or not (I'm not talking about "stunning" - only to work as advertised). I do expect it to work and work well - especially since I am paying so much for this feature and it is one of the main selling points of this new series of backs. If they were not sure if it would work as advertised or not then why did they hype it so much? (To sell backs of course, ha, ha!)
I'm confident that Phase will get it right, I just hope it doesn't take them too long to deliver, or wait until the next version of IQ backs to get it right with some lame-duck version on this most expensive back in the world this time around. Lots of crossed fingers I'm sure - on both sides of the room.
I don't know who is touting it quite that passionately. Oddly, I tripped over to Phase One's website and could hardly find a mention of it. I'm guardedly optimistic - it would be a huge faux pas to have the Live View not work better than it does today on the computer. I just haven't really seen much hype about Live View - especially compared to the Retina-type screen itself, which is bearing most of the marketing department's heavy lifting.
