    Adapt Canon TSE lenses to X2D II

    The same applies to the Nikon PC-E 19 mm. I think it's field curvature.

    The demise of medium format

    More and more photos are being taken. That's why there are also more and more bad photos. This is completely independent of the format. I was already doing street photography with Hasselblad and Rolleiflex in the 90s. I don't understand what the problem is. I've also taken many, many bad...

    180 MPX Sony sensor 44x33 - massive shift in MFD

    In 2002, I attended a workshop with a very well-known photographer. For me, he is one of the most important photographers. He wrote an essential sentence about photography on the blackboard. I photographed him with my Contax T2. R.I.P. Martin Parr

    Private Equity Auction Reported as Proceeding for Capture One

    Finally, I just wanted to say that I'm not particularly enthusiastic about the trend toward cloud-based storage. But it can't be stopped. I think it's only a matter of time before image editing programs force us to do it. Then the time will have come to use a Quantel Paintbox again...:LOL:

    Private Equity Auction Reported as Proceeding for Capture One

    I don't think that I have wrong settings. The question arises, for example, when you open/create a new blank document and want to save it....

    Private Equity Auction Reported as Proceeding for Capture One

    I understand that; being forced to subscribe also annoys me. Meanwhile, we are also slowly, step by step, being forced to store our data in the cloud in order to process it. Photoshop constantly asks me if I want to save the images in the cloud. I don't want to! At some point, I'm sure I'll have...

    180 MPX Sony sensor 44x33 - massive shift in MFD

    True, but a bit strange. If I want to buy a studio apartment, I don't buy a single-family home, even though the studio apartment is included.

    Private Equity Auction Reported as Proceeding for Capture One

    I always wonder why $250 per year is so important in a forum where many people use cameras and lenses costing $30,000 and much more. For me, the software costs for C1 and Adobe etc. are not insignificant, but in relation to the added value, they are absolutely worthwhile. Good software is...

    Cambo Ultima D Tripod Mounting Block - How do I attach?

    That's the right movement. That's how you have to open it. If it's stuck, I would try using penetrating oil. (WD-40) That's what works for my Ultima mount, anyway.

    180 MPX Sony sensor 44x33 - massive shift in MFD

    Phase One's departure from the 44 x 33 format has always bothered me. I have long wanted a 44 x 33 BSI back from Phase One. I only use my IQ3 100 because of the electronic shutter and the better lens cast behavior than my IQ1 50. I don't care about the number of pixels as long as it's over 40...

    Cambo Ultima to Actus-XL?

    I have decided to stick with the Ultima. I couldn't see any significant advantages to the Artus XL. It's not worth the investment for me. However, I don't use a smaller Actus, but a WRS.

    looking for Hasselblad digital back adapter for Rolleiflex 6008i2

    The Rolleiflex 6008 I is a wonderful camera. I worked with it for a long time and then reluctantly switched to Hasselblad for digital. I hope you find what you're looking for. I loved the 6008......

    GFX100RF for Fine Art, tripod work - first look

    Jost, I've never had this effect with a Phase One back, only with my Nikons and Fujis. I am annoyed by these rainbow patterns, but I know that PDAF has a price, but also many, many advantages. Are you sure you had that with a Phase One back too?

    Would a women ever say "i have enough shoes!"?

    I have a lot of cameras with hot shoes and cold shoes.

    Adapter for Phase One Blue Ring lenses

    Thanks for the inputs. I have already electronics-free adapters for the Cambo WRS and Fuji GFX. Is there no option to use the leaf shutter without an XF camera? The electronic shutter is a pain to work with and very limited when using flash.

    Adapter for Phase One Blue Ring lenses

    Is there an adapter that can exploit the potential of Phase One Schneider Blue Ring lenses on Fuji or Hasselblad bodies? Preferably an adapter with aperture control, autofocus and leaf shutter control. I assume that doesn't exist. But it would certainly be wonderful if there were one.... with...

    Martin Parr dies

    Oh dear, that's very sad. I'm an admirer of his work and attended one of his workshops in the early 2000s. A great loss to photography. R.I.P.

    Hasselblad X2D or Phase One IQ180?

    Buy some very good glass, or very good flashlights. You don‘t need another camera. IQ350 and GFX 100s are still top.

    Schneider Digitar 5.6 47mm - Different Versions?

    Good idea, I own this lens in T/S mount. It's very useful. I hardly ever use the CF.

    WRS mounts

    I practically never use the CF on the 47. The negative influence of backlighting (ghosting) with Schneider CFs is too strong and unpredictable. A window or a lamp in the picture is often enough to severely impair the image and weaken the contrast. A compendium is of no use here. The mirrored...
