Almost any of the Phase One P20, P21, P25, P30 or equivalent Leaf Aptus and Hasselblad backs can be found for very good/low prices now Dave. They will certainly not perform like your H5D-50c, but at low ISOs, they can still produce excellent images, as you've seen here.Well, you guys certainly caught my attention with this older thread. Since I am new to MFD, and waiting for delivery of my H5D-50c, I had no idea that an older H body could be a backup camera to my primary camera.
I see some very (VERY) good work posted here, so any recommendations on a backup rig would be greatly appreciated... especially if the price is low!
Beautiful building (a church I presume) and image! May I enquire where this is?DF P25
Thanks Gary, the location is in far north Queensland, near Cairns called Yungaburra, a small town in Atherton Tableland.Beautiful building (a church I presume) and image! May I enquire where this is?
I have very fond memories of the two years I lived in Brisbane and of my travels in Australia (1975-77).

<sigh>... I keep coming back to this thread... the images are magnetic as they draw me back frequently. Nick, you have to help me here... is it magic? The sensor? Settings? Post processing? What am I missing?Having had the Mamiya 645 df and P21+ for a few weeks what a change its made to my photography. Such a joy to be using a analogue camera with a digital back. Operation is so simple, I praised Fuji when I started to use their cameras x100, Xpro 1, and the Xt1 but alas the latest cameras are becoming much more menu driven, which I tend to dislike. I always liked the Fuji colour and the files were outstanding. However since using the 645 the simplicity is wonderful. The whole image taking experience is a joy. The back delivers incredible colour although limited in ISO performance means the tripod is now in full time use.
Working on the files takes little or no time to render something printable. I'm using Lightroom and Adobe raw, not quite got into the whole Capture scene. The only thing on my mind is the wide angle I need something wider than 45mm. So either the 35mm or the 28mm, the 28mm seems the better bet but i've heard this is quite a marmite lens? I thought about picking up a manual 35mm as the AF on wide angle isn't that much of an issue for me. Any thoughts from anyone? Lastly I am in love with the 210mm this is a fine lens, but carting it around on the 645 body has made me think i need invest in a gun bearer
Heres a few more images, the top one is a 3 image pano shot on the 210mm, images below shot on the 80mm and 45mm.
Hi JanKinderdijk | NL
SWC/M | Phase One P21
Sorry for the late reply since now only I noticed your posting. It is indeed about the mount, Phase One has backs for several mounts and Hasselblad is the V-mount indeed. Files can be processed in C1 but are also accepted by other software programs such as Photoshop and Lightroom.Hi Jan
Wonderful pictures from all of you!
Can I ask you, while you got it, is it just pure and simple to put on a Phase One P21 back on a SWC903?
But it has to be for Hassy V-mount I assume.
And while I'm a digital-zombie (not sufficient computer-skilled) is it just simple, when I PP in C1pro10?
Best Thorkil
Ps and the iso range is just and only 100-200 I guess then, or?
Hi Jan. Thank you for your answer. And me too : rather late answer while my eyes didn't caught it before now. Best ThorkilSorry for the late reply since now only I noticed your posting.

This image is quite a few years ago since I own a P25+ already for several years, which I am willing to part with. Together with the SWC/M is an option.
I love this one, thanks, Dez!The Griffith Observatory

Thank you so much!I love this one, thanks, Dez!
As I keep looking at ''this image, I find it stunning, and I cannot imagine how anything could make it better. Would a contemporary 50mp back make it better? If so, in what way?
