The Sensor
Like the P65+ the P40+ is the result of direct cooperation of a digital back manufacturer and a sensor manufacturer. Phase One worked closely with Dalsa to develop the technology that makes these two backs the most advanced digital backs in the world. The sensor measures 43.9mm x 32.9mm producing a 7320 x 5484 pixel file with true 16 bit depth.
Speed
At 40 megapixels the P40+ can shoot a blazing 1.4 frames per second. Need to shoot faster? Turn on Sensor+ and the P40+ can capture 1.8 frames per second at 10 megapixels. Just as important, this speed is maintained without a buffer, so unlike a dSLR the shooting does slow down during heavy continuous shooting.
Resolution
At 40 megapixels the P40+ provides enough resolution to print nearly any size and to crop heavily and still produce high quality images.
The Best Dynamic Range
The P40+ packs the same jaw dropping 12.5 stops of dynamic range as the flagship P65+, the highest dynamic range in medium format digital (and light years ahead of any dSLRs). This is perhaps the greatest accomplishment of the technology behind the the new Dalsa produced, Phase One patented sensors.
ISO
In full resolution mode the P40+ offers ISO 50-800 with results at ISO 800 that you have to see to believe. Shooting with Sensor+ mode enabled increases the back’s sensitivity two stops without increasing noise to an ISO range of 200-3200. Furthermore the type of noise from this back is more akin to film grain than the ugly noise from many dSLRs. Head over to our Tests page to see a full resolution ISO800 image to judge for yourself.
Open Platform
The P40+ is a continuation of Phase One’s commitment to keep medium format solutions open rather than closed. The P40+ will be produced in all of the current mounts including Contax, Hasselblad V, Hasselblad H, Rollei 6000, and Mamiya/Phase-One, and solutions will be provided for nearly all view cameras and technical cameras (see next paragraph).
Less Prone to Lens Cast and Moire
Using the same 6 micron technology as the the P65+ the P40+ decreases the effect of lens cast even at extreme lens angles and greatly reduces the occurrence of moire. This makes it the ideal flexible solution for photographers using view cameras, technical cameras, or tilt/shift lenses._
Pricing
Prices start at $19,990, call for details. Upgrade pricing is available from any Phase One product and trade-ups are available from dSLRs and competitors’ digital backs.
Availability
The P40+ is already shipping! However, demand is expected to be strong, so order before the first batch is sold out.
