Hrannar, I have had the Canon 1DsMKII, and now the 1DsMKIII. In no way does either compare to even my 16 meg MF back, let alone a 22 meg or 39 meg version.fotografz:
Are you sure the resolution increase would be noticable by significant margin? The long side of my 1DsII is 4992 pixels and the long side of Phase One P25+ is 5436 pixels, only 444 pixels more. That would make 388dpi for the P25 at 14" print and 356dpi for the 1DsII. If we look at what size we get if we print at 200dpi 1DsII gives you 25" print and the P25 would print 27". I know the gap is wider for the short side but to me it's still doubful if this is really significant, right? MF has a lot more to offer than sheer resolution but resolution is of course important to us landscape photographers. A lot of my prints go up to 40-50 inches but that's usually on canvas witch is easier on resolution.
Is there any direct comparison of the 28mm Hasselblad and 28mm Mamiya? If you have any liks to comparisons/reviews I'd be very thankful.
Best, Hrannar
I took a printing class from Charlie last year and he is a genius! He did the most rigorous analysis of MFDB in conjunction with Bill Atkinson and they both ended up with 645/P45 rigs as a result. Charlie's conclusion was that film trannies may still be a hair better than the p45 (not the plus) but the immediacy and simplicity of dealing with digital files compare to scanning trannies pushed him over the edge. I had the opportunity to compare prints he made from both media and for some I preferred the film but for most there were little differences. JMHOCharlie Cramer (http://www.charlescramer.com/ ) has been using his P45+ for quite a bit now, with no problems.
another one with the P45+.. Elizabeth Carmel ( http://www.elizabethcarmel.com/ )
Not as cool as this one, an 18X12" of it hangs above my desk, I find it calming! Have to admit that all my pics from Iceland that made it were shot with the 70-200, just my way of shooting landscape I guess.Now that is one very cool shot!

... never liked enough to do anything with it but I tried cropping it to 2:1 this morning and I think it works.
