Looking for a IQ4-150 - Update: On hold

other side of the story is the pleasure derived each day ... As far as I know, we only live once so it’s impossible to depreciate pleasure.

You are absolutely right here; I am just not completely convinced that the IQ4-150 will be such an unabated pleasure (especially since now factory warranties are starting to expire).

Having used a CFV-50c and now using a IQ3-100 already have dealt with my fair share of handling gremlins. Curious to see how the CVF-100c will stand here.

I think the CFV-100c will be around the $8k - $10k mark, depending on exchange rates. IF there's an IQ5 it could only be the same sensor with upgrade electronics - probably related to tighter integration with the XT. That said, is it worth it for P1? Probably not, so I think they'll soldier on with the IQ4 for the foreseeable future, despite it being positively ancient in digital terms. Personally, I'm keen to see the CFV-100c as 100MP is more than enough for me, and the addition of a flip-up screen + X2D style UI + access to the 907X platform + latest electronics would be great.

My person in the know said that it will be less than the HB X2D 100C, which would make sense since a simpler device. The HB X2D 100C now goes for $8K.

I am also looking forward to the CFV-100c. Not sure I will buy, but at least nice to have a sensible alternative to either IQ3 or IQ4.
