When you see it, you'll believe it (new P1 body?)

Joke alert!

Looks like PhaseON1E is bringing out a stretched-bonnet Model T!
They're right, I won't believe it until I see it.

It looks more like a Model A.

A dig at 'Blad, perhaps?

Sure, but I bet it's not the new Phase camera. It's the new CMOS back on the old DF+. Unfortunate pairing. Sort of like pairing Gisele Bundchen with the creepiest guy you can think of.

The new Cmos has great ISO i heard but almost the same price as IQ 260.

No one will buy it just because better ISO with similar price as 260!

The new body has been announced secretly among dealer I bet some people in this forum know.

I like many others, would like to see a genuine new SLR body for Phase One - however a 645++ or 645+++ could easily be an insult if it is not a really NEW from the ground up camera body.

The problem is in my opinion is the company Mamiya. They have the tooling for the AFXXXX bodies and make the cameras. If they can't make profit from cameras and the cooperation with Leaf then they have no money for tooling up for a new camera. Phase certainly has no experience in making cameras.

I would like to see Phase but this new CMOS sensor (better full frame) in a Mamiya 7 body (which they already own) of course with live veiw:angel:

I think the body is fine IF they

1. Gave us an auto focus point that can move around the frame (and the exposure following the point ) like Canon D series.

2. Dampen the mirror slap and shutter movement.

3 Allowed LS lens to not have to fire the FP shutter

I think that would be great

Where's all the P1 dealers like Lance and Doug to espouse the merits of this new camera so long in the making?

Actually, I was ready to purchase this new camera years ago.
