It does appear that P1 has one part time college student working on IQ4 firmware after dinner and a few drinks.
Fixes that should take a few hours take weeks and add embarrassing bugs that could easily be unearthed by even the most rudimentary testing. Most companies have a testing protocol and fleet of beta testers with nightly firmware feeds to work through issues before the public ever sees them.
I’ve been a phase customer for more than ten years and this is NOT business as usual for them. Release issues have been minor up to this camera with most issues resolved in a couple of months from release.
Fortunately for Phase the results with the IQ4150 are substantially better than anything else available. I, for one, still love the camera, deal with the frustration and hope for the best.
And yes it does appear my hair is falling out just look at my profile shots over the past ten years.

Am I the only one who somewhat loses the will to live when reading this list? I’d quite like to concentrate on the creative process and the usual technical challenges without having to remember that the back only does colour images when set to IQ23LS mode provided that it’s not a Tuesday unless it’s the third Tuesday of the month (other than June) in which case you have to use it upside down.
Get real Phase.
