how do u like it ?  | Phase One P 30 is a digital module than can be adapted to different medium format camera like Mamiya , Hasselblad, Contax and other.This module replace the well known film casette from the camera.BUT nice part is that you can use the back like a polaroid and then load the film holder and feel alive again.Digital will never beat analog.In musical instruments is the same. |

| | | Re: free to use 5 digital back raws!!! I have been looking your pictures (CMS) and is a very good result.
I donīt like the battle between digital and analogic, but I think that, in most situations and jobs, digital backs has high end enough quality.
I am a still life photographer and work with Imacon Digital Back. I work with four shots technology, getting incredible results (perfect textures) and have the posibility to work with 16 shots technology, getting a 384 16 bit file without interpolation.
Never heard from a client saying: " Ohhhh, sorry, but we donīt have enough quality". Normally they said to me things like: "384 mb? Please, next time give me a smaller file, my computer canīt work quickly with that kind of files".
About using a P30 like Polaroid....... Wow, I am sure you have a lot of work and high rate per day to do that, LOL. Digital backs are expensive and with very short life if your clients wants always "The last" ( Crazy Megapixel race: more megapixels-better pics)
Cms, I am busy this week, but next week I will try another pic. Thanks a lot, again. |

| | | Re: free to use 5 digital back raws!!! Tip:
next time you may want to use either http://www.podmailing.com/ (FREE, no size limits), or http://www.pando.com (FREE, 1GB size limit), to make large files available to others on the web without the nags, the confusion, and the waiting times of RapidShare.
Also, you can zip TIFF files before uploading to shrink the file size without image quality loss. |

| | | Re: free to use 5 digital back raws!!! I haven't seen any digital shots (overall) beat out or match film yet. there's just something about film. it's just more natural. and captures greater details and color gradations in my opinion. |

| | | Re: free to use 5 digital back raws!!! what bothers me with digital backs, is that they're slow, compared to the 20MP eos 1ds mark III, even though it's another type of camera, and a different way of working.
1,5 image/s, then wait for the transfert to computer, then load up images into the software for preview; lightroom or capture one for most.
can't wait for the 40/50 mp reflex.. |

Even with this type of performance digital will never be able to compete with gorgeus, aleatoire way of silver chemicals.NEVER.NEVER <NEVER. Digital is for making money.Just that. |
