    Sensor size and Hyperfocal range (with the same lens)

    Hi all, I've a question about Hyperfocal distance as I'm seeing all sorts of cross talk involving actual focus, perceived focus and so on. If shooting a scene with a lens at say, 35mm focal length on a full frame sensor (could be medium format 6x7, 35mm FF or 6x4.5) at F8 would the area of...

    I just found a burning desire for a feature on the 5ds

    6:4.5 and 8:10 crop modes. Currently the 5dsr has an overlay for 1.6x and 1.3x but it would be really nice to have 1:1 and several other crop modes. I didn't think much of them at first but load the raws into Lightroom and the crop setting goes with it and the ovf has an overlay to assist with...

    I just wrote up my experiences with the Pentax 645z

    Hi everyone, for any that are interested I just published a series of posts on the Pentax 645z. It isn't hugely technical but covers weddings and portraiture, CCD vs CMOS, Dynamic range, Image quality, Weatherproofing and the Flash solutions. If after reading you want to know anything else...

    The Sigma DP cameras

    Possibly the wrong forum section I know, but this is more related to Medium format in direction. I love my H4D50, LOVE it. But I usually use it for personal projects and travel stuff. But now, I'm thinking about taking something much much lighter. The Sigma DP system seems interesting. High...

    Hasselblad HC 35mm lens, minty mint

    I recently purchased a H4D50 kit used and have a duplicate lens I want to sell. This is the newer of the two, with 3242 actuations on it, a perfect lens hood and spotless body. This lens is super for landscapes, I don't like going much wider. Comes as pictured, no box (but will be packaged...

    Stock agencies, image sales

    Guys, I couldn't think of where to ask this on the forum, but for those who license / sell their images online digitally where do you do it? I've signed up to Alamy but not really done anything about it as I've heard stock sites and microstock is well, 'not worth the effort'.

    H series to RZ adapter plates

    I've a leaf 22 on it's way in H mount, at last. I miss the leaf look and as it's not a locked back I'm considering putting it on a RZ67. Question is, is there anything I need to know about this. Are there many differing types of adapter for the RZ pro, Pro ii and Pro iiD? Thanks! Chris

    Is the P45+ back now over rated / over hyped?

    I'm still seeing crazy, crazy prices for these and in many places the Leaf backs also. You can buy a H3DII 39 for around the 4-5K GBP mark here in the UK yet I'm seeing the asking prices of the Phase backs in the 6-8k mark. I bought my H3DII 39 for £4500 and sure, it's fixed to this one body...

    Difference between the 39II and 50II

    Hi guys, can anyone tell me if there is much of an IQ difference between the sensors, ISO performance relative to each other etc? I have the 39II but am considering a jump up.

    FS UK - Hasselblad H1 + P25 Back + Film Back + Extra grip and film

    For sale is my Hasselblad H1 Series camera which was purchased as a demo model earlier this year. (Which is why the shutter count is so very low at 3836, it's hardly been used). Also included is a Phase One P25 back which I purchased used at the same time, this has 21667 actuations on it...

    So I went for pancakes...

    Here in the UK the 40mm 2.8 Pancake lens showed up today and all over the place. A main dealer local to me had 2 arrive so I snapped one up. Currently I'm going to be too busy to put it through any proper tests but a few things have occured to me: 1: The AF motor isn't silent like I expected...

    Blurred images on the 39mp back

    I'm at 39mp now and I did the usual comparison to my 22mp back. I was a little surprised how soft the 39 looked in comparison but have nailed it down to the shutter not being fast enough. With 35mm you'd match the shutter speed (or greater) to eliminate handshake. With the smaller pixels of the...

    The P45+ back, what's so special?

    I've been looking at 39mp backs for the H series and what constantly surprises me is the price of the P45+ Why is it so high relative to an entire H3DII 39 system? Especially as they are the same sensor. Based on used prices the H3DII is 30% less. Has lens corrections and enhancements via...

    What's the best colour landscape film?

    That's still available that is? When I shoot landscapes I often shoot digital first to gauge exposure and then pop the film back on and take the shot, often braketting the shots. (In medium format). I'd like low noise negative film. Currently I use Ektar. Something that is correct for it's ISO...

    For those who moves from the P25 to the H3d 39...

    Other than the files size, what were your observations? I love my P25 but I put it head to head with the 5D3 today and found the 5D3 files were more maleable to editing yet the P25 files were much much sharper and had better colour. Without brazenly going out and buying one, has anyone before...
