what are the best MF for landscape and architecture (with tilt/shift but also Autofocus when not using TS lenses ) ?
thank you

Doug, if I may ask you directly, what would you do if the only IQ back you could afford for your tech cam was the IQ140? I'm going back and forth and still can't make up my mind. The promise of being able to use the back without thethering, a great user interface but the 1.3 crop factor versus the P45+, more than 60 seconds exposure time and a larger sensor. (If Phase comes up with slightly extended exposure times, the former might be a non-issue.)My (heavily biased) opinion is a Phase One P45+ [...] or an IQ160/180 [..] with a Tech camera and also a Phase One DF is the most versatile and high quality kit available.
Thanks Guy, I never thought about it this way! Ok, one step closer to hell.Frankly if you can find a P30+ or P25+ that can go 30 minutes i would buy that as a backup /long exp. back.
That's my plan. I'm shooting P40+ & Alpa right now and I don't feel pixel challenged. The downside with the crop sensor is that you need wider glass for the same FoV and these get very expensive as you reach 28/24/23mm.the IQ 180 is very expensive and I don't need so many pixels, 40 pixels are enough for A2 prints
IQ140 and Alpa ? or P45+ / P25+ and Alpa ?
thanks
Not sure I'd call it a "typo" given that the top half of that page is meant to be a generic breakdown of the arguments of tech cameras vs. SLRs. We've been working to add the RM3Di to that page to show the other major tech camera option we endorse, but are just so darn busy. However, reading your comment I realize it could have been more clear and so have revised the wording a bit. Thanks for the feedback.doug:
bit of a typo on your tech camera article for the cambo wrs: tilt and swing are listed
cambo wrs is a great product by the way, but you need to use lenses with a tilt/swing mount for each lens
Slightly extended is always a realistic hope. But the Dalsa architecture is not a long-exposure architecture, and I would not buy an IQ140 if a limitation of one minute at ambient temperatures of 70ish degrees is going to significantly reduce your commercial or creative use of the camera.Doug, if I may ask you directly, what would you do if the only IQ back you could afford for your tech cam was the IQ140?
