    Phocus Mobile 2 v3.0.0

    Can't you use Phocus mobile to capture your raws in the field, then go home, and transfer the raws to a folder on your desktop, applying the new NR to any of the raws you select? I would hope that those raws with the new NR applied can be imported into desktop Phocus and LR and the NR is...

    New Hasselblad XCD 3,4/75P

    I see that Capture Integration also has stock of the 90mm f/2.5 V lens, which I have never seen in stock. (Steve, please don't call and tempt me!)

    Thanks for the update! Old expectations die hard.

    Hasselblad quality

    So strange. Germany is widely viewed as the model of efficiency on so many levels, yet it seems like the worst customer service stories about delays in Hasselblad service involve Hasselblad products sent in for service through German dealers. In the US, we can deal directly with the Hasselblad...

    Hasselblad quality

    The issue with the weather sealing ring happened to me as well several years ago with my 90mm f/3.2, but it was my fault. At least with the original XCD lenses, you have to be careful with how you attach the lens to the camera bodies. If the lens is not properly aligned with the lens mount and...

    MF Gear for Antarctica and Patagonia Trip

    Where did you do most of your shooting? From the vessel, the Zodiac or land? Why did you never bring your Hasselblad on the Zodiac so that you could shoot with it on land?

    MF Gear for Antarctica and Patagonia Trip

    I am used to shooting in horrific weather conditions and can deal with that. I have used Hasselblad X1D and X2D cameras in sub-zero snowstorms in Vermont and Iceland. As you suggest, it may make sense for me to rent a second Sony body so that I can switch between the two zooms without changing...

    MF Gear for Antarctica and Patagonia Trip

    I don't shoot with the GFX system. I do have a Hasselblad HC 300mm lens and a TC for it, but there is no way that is being schlepped to Antarctica, so I will have to make do with the Sony for longer reach. I am flying over the Drake Passage, so I will need to check on the weight restrictions...

    New Hasselblad XCD 3,4/75P

    And, after we buy all three, they will release a 35-75P zoom. I love the current 35-75 zoom, but not as a a walk around lens.

    MF Gear for Antarctica and Patagonia Trip

    I am heading to Antarctica and Patagonia (Chile) in late January. I would appreciate hearing advice from those with experience photographing in those locations what cameras and lenses I should bring. I have a Sony A7RV and the Sony 24-120 and 100-400 zooms, which I don't enjoy using but I was...

    Hasselblad XCD 20mm-35mm Zoom Now Supported in Latest LR/CR Update

    A quick fyi that the Hasselblad XCD 20mm-35mm XCD zoom is now supported in LR Classic 14.0 and Camera Raw 17.0. Nonetheless, the Lens Corrections in Phocus for the XCD lenses are reported to be more "comprehensive" than those in LR and CR. For extreme wide angle lenses like the 20-35 zoom at the...

    How many of you are focus stacking?

    Yes, but I think that's what Paul and others were lacking in their workflow with an X2D. A way to organize into a separate folder a sequence of exposures that were made as part of a focus stack. The stacking feature in LR provides an alternative to having the camera putting the exposures into a...

    How many of you are focus stacking?

    In the Library Module in Lightroom Classic, you can auto-stack a focus stack sequence based upon the time interval between exposures.

    Which XCD lenses would you bring to Venice / Lake Como?

    This would be my kit. These three lenses would give you a nice spread of focal lengths and are quite manageable weight and size wise. I have the 35-75 zoom and use it regularly, but I wouldn't want to deal with the weight.

    How successful have recent Hasselblad product introductions been?

    My experience is that if I do a very basic set of global adjustments on a file in both Phocus and LR, I may see a slight advantage with Phocus. However, as soon as I expand the scope of my adjustments to include local adjustments, LR is vastly superior in terms of the ultimate look of the file...

    How successful have recent Hasselblad product introductions been?

    Some of the R&D may be related to development work that Hasselblad does on products that will be sold by DJI. Higher end drones, as an example.

    New Phase One Camera Arrives.

    I don't know. If I had spent $60k on an XC23 and that's a representative photo that I took with it, I wouldn't be very happy.

    Phase One IQ5 – Sony 247 MPX – 3:2 – will you get it?

    One BIG question with a new mirrorless S4 is this....does Leica know how to put the S4 on a diet? An S4 that weighs 50% more than an X2D and a line of f/2 APO lenses that are big and heavy will be a nonstarter for many photographers that might be open to a possible alternative to Fuji and Hassy...

    Phase One IQ5 – Sony 247 MPX – 3:2 – will you get it?

    180MP is very close to 200. That is truly negligible. The historic MP advantage enjoyed by Phase would have disappeared. Phase would have to offer some powerful other features unique to its IQ5. Even then, it's only for tech cameras and a legacy DSLR from 2015. A very niche market. I have no...

    Phase One IQ5 – Sony 247 MPX – 3:2 – will you get it?

    I read it differently. It looks nobody is all in with purchasing the new back if it Is 3:2. Only one person would buy if it's 3:2 but only if they could get a "good deal." Moreover, if the back is 3:2 and 200MP when cropped to 4:5, how many will buy it if Fuji and Hasselblad offer a 4:5 GFX and...
