    Profoto D1/B1 glass domes

    Looking at this image of the D1 with the dome attached brings back memories and reminded me of of why I disliked my B1's and the reason why I ultimately sold all mine. I was never impressed with how the domes attached but found it a pain to keep putting the standard flat cover glass back in...

    Hasselblad X1D

    The 30mm and 45mm lenses announced so far sound great but a dedicated X1D HTS with lower magnification along with a 120mm/150mm lens (perhaps macro) would make be buy this tomorrow.

    Big Hasselblad anouncement on the 22nd.

    Seems like a resounding response that "Game Changer" better be price if it really is a mirrorless camera for the prosumer. Hasselblad should take a leaf out of Sony's book and release a fantastic feature rich mirrorless MF camera at a price point that makes it a must have for any serious...

    Big Hasselblad anouncement on the 22nd.

    Looks like and Alpa FPS but will hopefully be more advanced in the same way as a Sony A7..... Now that would be a camera I'd be interested in purchasing, especially if they released lens adapters for anything from Canon lenses upto modern Rodenstock's.

    Big Hasselblad anouncement on the 22nd.

    I'll be so disappointed if its a digital x-pan or square format only camera as I imagine only a small select group of photographers would actually buy one and I'd hardly call that game changing. I hope its something that builds on HB's heritage and in the vein of the CFV backs that looks...

    iPad for MFD

    I had a feeling you were going to say that. :( The Sony app is terrible, are there no apps that do a similar thing that allows some more control of the image. An iOS version of Capture One would be excellent (working without a laptop running) so is there something like that for the iPad Pro??

    iPad for MFD

    Thanks for the explanation and sounds like just what I'm looking for. What software (app) allows file transfer from the Sony A7 (or any wifi enabled camera) camera to the iPad for instant preview?

    iPad for MFD

    I light my interior shots so live view is not quite the final result so can an iPad Pro in any way be used like a laptop to rewiew images (not just live view) on its nice big screen?

    iPad for MFD

    Which is great for working on images after the event but during (tethered) its a no show for all formats. I'd love an iPad Pro for my architectural photography rather than using a laptop on a tripod table or squinting at the tiny camera screen. :( Additionally how do you get your worked on...

    iPad for MFD

    I was hoping when rumours of the iPad Pro started, Apple were finally realising professionals (as they named it) need to plug things into their tablets and have access to local storage. However, alas the iPad Pro was much the same as all the other (useless for photographers) iPads that are...

    Hasselblad Teaser

    Now this new camera looks truly sensational and gets me interested in getting back into MFD in so many ways that the Phase XF/IQ hasn't! So, any ideas of the price of the 100MP version yet?

    Profoto Pro8a vs ProB4

    The Pulso heads are zoomable so haven't really missed the Profoto at all and the zoom range on the B heads was very small anyway. The Profoto adapted sure is a work of genius but the bayonet on the bron just works and I've never had any issues with mounting or breaking Pyrex domes. The...

    Profoto Pro8a vs ProB4

    Yes, think most people jump between LL and getdpi. :) Now fully bron with Move and Scoro packs. Cost me a lot to switch from Profoto and ultimately lost money in the process but have no regrets making the switch as the bron gear is just out of this world good. Might add a couple of Siros mono's...

    Profoto Pro8a vs ProB4

    Pretty sure Don has jumped ship and is now fully broncolor.

    Capture One Catalogs or Session based workflow

    Sessions is how Capture One started off and back in the early days was mostly aimed at commercial studios who created a new session for each new job which I suppose was similar to how most shot film. The session could then be stored on HD, CD, DVD and invoiced in pretty much the same way as its...

    Phase pricing moving in the right direction!

    Or you are buying a back at a cut price that is fully capable but purposefully crippled to distinguish it as a cheaper alternative to the IQ backs. While the XF is brand new for the future, Phase Ones last camera came from the 1980's so criticising one designed in 2002 is rich. Who knows what...

    A7RII + Cambo Actus

    I'd be all in on the Arca if it wasn't for the strange L-bracket camera mounting that seems overly fussy to me and now the Actus offers the Canon auto lens mount its by far the moat rounded system of all these mini vies cameras. I'm very tempted and hope to have a good look at one very soon.

    A7RII + Cambo Actus

    Thats how all large format function so hardly a recipe for failure considering the period of time these cameras have been used by photographers without incident. Using the 17TSE and 24TSE on the Actus would sure alleviate having to use annoying diagonal movements and the older 45mmTSE and...

    GM Lenses

    Its not about the initial cost or resale value because as a full time working photographer, my equipment is quickly paid for and I'm all too familiar photography equipment is no investment having shot MFD/tech camera for 10 years and recently sold it all. I'm not a big fan of buying/swapping kit...

    GM Lenses

    My A7R II is constantly attached to a tripod so the size of the camera or lenses attached is of little importance and if the A7 had been the size of my 1DS3 or Olympus Pen I'd still buy any lens regardless of size or weight as long as it was as good as I hope all the GM glass will be. I regard...
