God help us!"Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter (sold separately, available July)"...
The H series (released 2003) and the P20 non plus and P25 non plus (released 2004) require a certain amount of firewire power to (consistently) work correctly.I wonder if it will be enough to power a Phase back?
but what about my leaf aptus II 7... ;-(The H series (released 2003) and the P20 non plus and P25 non plus (released 2004) require a certain amount of firewire power to (consistently) work correctly.
All P1 backs released between 2005 and 2011 allow the user to change [Menu > Configuration > Power Source] to [Battery] in which case the back ignores the firewire power and just draws power from the battery.
The IQ series backs always use the battery to power the back and only use the tethered power to recharge the battery.
For the P20 non plus and P25 non plus there is a dongle Capture Integration sells which tricks/forces the back to use battery power.
So I don't see this being a big issue.
yes and did you see - only ssd´s inside, max 768GB. No more 17 " and the "upgrade" of the MacPro´s is a lukewarm "tuneup" which if the firmware wouldn´t be closed could have been done by any dealer with spare parts.
I already said it, but after using my 17" for some months I will get a desktop replacement Notebook with "hairs on the chest" e.g. this one:
ASUS 18,4", 32 GB ram,3,5TB Storage (3 GB HD + 512GBSSD) and best : 2000 € !!!!
18.4" ASUS K95V ~ 512GB SSD + 3000GB ~ 32GB RAM ~ WINDOWS 7 PROF ~ NVIDIA GT 630 | eBay
Sorry Apple, too much is too much !

Yes, I am aware of that.The H series (released 2003) and the P20 non plus and P25 non plus (released 2004) require a certain amount of firewire power to (consistently) work correctly.

This is where you need to watch the video...yes, I know "marketing" but the cooling is discussed and you can see just how much inside is battery.Hmm 2.5x the pixels of a FHD display, That's quite a load on the GPU which equals battery drain. I think that panel could draw quite a bit of battery juice, regardless if NVidia or Intel is doing the rendering. That said, it is an IPS panel, FINALLY, so there is a good probability that it profiles well.
Specs make me wonder what the target market is - surely not primarily imaging professionals.
Also curious about the cooling, a powerful GPU and a quadcore CPU in an even thinner metal case is a tricky concept.
