IQ4 with Capture One mobile app

Is there any meaningful improvement for tethered shooting over Cascable? I had pretty much given up on this and have been shooting tethered into my MacBook Air.

Phase has been saying for months that it will come … but clearly implementing the complex protocol of P1 backs on the mobile architecture is not a priority for them given they added almost everything under the sun except Phase backs … and it is a money thing: better to let the programmers implement something related to Sony, Canon, etc. then to have them working on making sure there is seamless tethering with Phase gear …

The app is also primitive, last time I checked it didn’t even have camera control features; it will take a long time to have the same functionality with mobile then you have with the native app…

Is there a small non Apple tablet that is able to run the full version of Capture One, so that live view is enabled? Am mainly looking to be able to correct perspective of buildings whilst in the field, as well as having access to stitching images.

Would rather stick to Apple but curious to know what the other options are? Does anybody use a Macbook Air, the one with the new M2 chip? I assume this has the appropriate connections to make Capture One work without issue...

The layout of even the smallest laptop still seems extremely bulky somehow..

Yes, Microsoft Surface ... is not as energy efficient and Windows :(

Yep, lots of options in this space - most recent would be any Microsoft surface. MacBooks of course work, but they are indeed bulky. You can get really small, for example https://gpd.hk/gpdpocket3

Things like this should be seamless from the get go, I think P1 concentrate too much on non P1 while Hasselblad with their 'Phocus' concentrate on their platform 1st.

Thanks for the replies!

The Microsoft surface works with live view in Capture One?

Can you do a live view "perspective" manipulation of a scene? Am looking to use non tilt shift lenses on the GFX 100S and would like to see the result straight away?

Possible?

Thanks! :)

If you go the Surface route, be sure that it uses a stylus. The Capture One sliders and buttons are too small to accurately control with fingertips.

Technically, Capture One is now a separate company and P1 has no say in what they do. Interestingly, they offer SDK tools themselves to process IIQ images into other formats now:

Yeah it does on my (old, work) surface book 3 at least, they should all be somewhat comparable.


I could not find a way to at least.

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated!

That is a shame with regards to altering the perspective... Will have to think of a way around it..

Thanks again! :)

I would imagine this was driven by the needs of the B2B division which is selling inspection solutions. Without knowing the industry, I would assume making sure the files coming out of their reconnaissance drones can be fed into other pre-existing software packages drove the need to open up the format – ie not really about helping third-party raw developers from the photo world ...

Off-topic, I know---but wow these are small pocket PCs. Has anyone pulled the trigger on one of these? Compatible to be coaxed into tethering an IQ series MFDB?

You can get smaller with just single board computers, just add your own battery and display: https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1404.html

Probably! I tested it on my IQ3 Achro files for fun, seems to work at least. Which is neat because it has native multispectral support.

....except that thanks to Buildbot, I'm now looking at the GPD Pocket 3 and maybe even back to a Surface Pro tablet (after all those years of exploring options with the original Surface Pro 2 and IQ180!). Ouch, things have gotten expensive. Yolo?

Other than the nice and pretty form factor of the iPad (and wireless potential), I'm thinking the GPD Pocket 3 tethered option avoids the foibles of the C1 App, while maintaining full capabilities of the Capture One software. Am I missing something?

The GPD pocket 3 does look very interesting. Fortunately, it’s out of stock with the UK distributor.

Ken, I’d love to hear your experience with it.
