    Linhof Technorama 612 PCII

    Also I guess they no longer want to sell anything here either. In my opinion ban/delete the account. Even when people have bought things from me to use as a rental for a month before returning because of some alleged issue (on ebay), I accept the return. It’s just better customer service and...

    X2D Firmware 4.0 Multi shot 4x added

    Yeah, I would imagine the voice coil based image stabilizers are less accurate for shifting the the peizo actuators in Sinar and Hasselblad multi shot backs too. Maybe that’s untrue? Another one is the entire house/apartment/building vibrating… Someone using their washing machine near our unit...

    IR sensitivity of old digital backs

    Full datasheet for those interested: https://www.teledynedalsa.com/download/85b355e5-c8ba-4772-b81b-f5a7ee5c07d1/ They very nicely keep all this info available I think technically, the CCD in the IQ2 is different slightly than the public version- sensor plus + the long exposure mode.

    Live view support for Capture One for iPad / iPhone Version 2.3.0

    I’ve tried, it does not work :( The reasoning being it’s not “possible” to convert the custom USB implementation in the IQ series into something that ipad can connect with. Personally I think that’s sorta a BS answer, given the numerous other attachable cameras and gadgets out there that...

    custom CCD camera

    I understand it's not plug and play - I've actually helped reverse engineer the command bitstream for a prototype pixel sensor before and built a simple FPGA based setup for it. Which is why I used the same words you did: Of course you'd have to customize the driving electronics, ADC, firmware...

    custom CCD camera

    Extremely cool, I’ve been watching this project for a bit! They’ve open sourced everything here: https://gitlab.com/zephray/sitina1 Which is amazing. They’ve also used a kodak ccd sensor of a the same/similar generation to the 22 megapixel kodak medium format sensor. So this project could be...

    Adapting / converting a P1 digital back on a Sinar P3

    I have used xometry & a few others, so far they've done pretty well! Though setting tolerances does increase cost a lot!

    Adapting / converting a P1 digital back on a Sinar P3

    No promises, but I did just buy a medium high end 3d scanner with the idea to finally make some progress on getting my Bronica SQ -> IQ adapter (the geometry is complex enough that I kept making mistakes measuring with calipers). Next will be a P3 -> IQ adapter, so I can use my IQ backs with my...

    Anyone backing Intrepid Electronic Shutter?

    Looks very cool, and the design is something very interesting - I think they are using PCB based coils to drive the shutter blades:

    Adapting / converting a P1 digital back on a Sinar P3

    Really? I bought one and it didn't mount to my P3 Repro, and it left a pretty big gap between the back and the plate... That was what actually pushed me to start trying to make my own adapter plates.

    New Hasselblad XCD 20-35/3.2-4.5

    Sigma & Ziess do this: https://www.dpreview.com/articles/5410838737/go-inside-sigma-s-factory-to-see-how-lenses-are-made?slide=26 https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2016/02/optical-quality-assurance/ I think it would cost a fair bit extra - It's a scale thing probably. Both Phase One and...

    Phase One IQ3 100 Achromatic versus IQ4 150 Achromatic

    No PowerShare with the IQ4+XF, if that matters to you. I keep thinking about an IQ4 (normal or achro) but can’t justify it really 😒

    are they serious? tether options capture one ipad

    Is it the USB-C power cable? Those are USB2 and very slow (480Mbs) Sounds like that's working at USB3 speeds, 5-10Gb/s (IDK what a GFX supports, the MacBook will do 20Gb/s USB3, 40Gb/s USB4)

    are they serious? tether options capture one ipad

    Oh! My mistake. That I think was a limitation of iOS/lightning is what I've heard. IDK if that is the case with modern USB-C iPads and iPhones. No incentive for C1 to update to supporting the IQ1/2/3 gen USB mode really, since they are different companies now.

    Avoiding a USB to ethernet adapter dongle? You bring up good points though. (Anyone want donate 17K for one?)

    are they serious? tether options capture one ipad

    I don't have an IQ4, but I agree, it's kinda a joke. The IQ4 is a full on linux computer, they can write software to emulate a network over USB if it's an Apple limitation around USB device types allowed. Linux has the CDC (NCM) USB Device class built in, which allows TCP/IP over USB. Someone...

    Cube care and Lubrication

    Exactly - It is hard to tell the ground isn’t straight (typically), from a photo. It’s really clear if the trees all all misaligned or your horizon is. And sometimes, level for a horizon line or a feature is quite a bit away from what true level might be!

    If only you had 247 MP... What could you have done?

    I feel the same. I'm more interested at this point in using older sensors with way more advanced processing than what was around when they were released - give us a CCD back with excellent thermoelectric cooling, advanced ADCs, high res touch screen, EVF out, Wifi 7, etc. Phase One has a patent...
