Hello MF Ambassadors,
I decided once, that if I ever get the chance to make cheap leap into digital MF, I will give it a try. I now have the chance of either the p45+ for 1000€ or the IQ140 back for around 1.600€, which seem fairly reasonable, and with a DF body and 80mm is well in my price range.
Now I made my researches, but as MF is so densely populated, it wasn't always easy to get the information, I was looking for. There are a few last questions I got and possibly a little help regarding the choice between the two backs would be very much appriciated.
First and foremost - the two backs. What would be your choice and why? I read a bit here in forums and the opinions seem to get in either directions between the two, regarding battery lifetime, screen and actual sensor size, where I don't get quite the deal of the benefits.
Second regarding lenses - the newer Phase One lenses have this blue ring around them. However, I couldn't really find detailed information about the changes made to those technically. I guess they are made for this IQ4 100MP+ system and would be over-do to my desired system anyhow (ignoring the pricetag)?
Third and lastly - It would be so super awesome, if someone could provide me a full res jpg for a littel pixelpeeping on either of the backs. <3
Many thanks in advance for any advice and help
