Question: Can I Use ISO 200 on a Phase one IQ 1 60 Back

[rollsman44]

I only need ISO 200 with my strobes. Will the IQ be good and will there by Noise?
Its a CCD and I prefer that. I will use it on P1 XF body. Thank you

The reason I am asking: I had a H5D-40 and the IQ was Excellent and no noise. This is a CCD Sensor.

Hi Dennis,
The IQ150 has a CMOS sensor.

IQ4 150 is different from IQ1 50 that OP is inquiring about.

IQ4 150 is different from IQ1 50 that OP is inquiring about.

The IQ1 50 is a CMOS sensor, though. ISO 200 should be well within its range.

The IQ140 , 60, and 80 are CCD. The 60 may be my favorite sensor of all time. Low ISO only.

there will be no real difference if you take 100, 200 or 400 iso on this back. CMos with 50 MP are great for low light, even with 1600-3200 iso you get very good results. This is the main difference to CCD backs, where only low iso are usefull.

I meant to ask about IQ 1 40 or IQ 1 60 CCD Backs for ISO 200 With No problem with noise. TY I appreciate all the Comments

You can double up your strobes output, if they are powerful enough, and use ISO 100 too

I’m not sure about the IQ 160, but the 260 and 280 do pixel binning (Sensor+). The resulting images are 15MP and 20MP, but the base iso goes from 50 to 200.

I forgot all about Sensor+. I used it on the IQ180 and found it worthwhile. I'll place bets Sensor+ technology is on the IQ160.

I was always amazed by the image quality of the 260 with sensor +. The file size suffers but you gained so much. The "regular" 200 iso was very noisy in a not nice looking way.

I had the IQ1 40. You can shoot ISO 200, but I think it's the same as pushing ISO 100 a stop. I have some ISO 800 Sensor+ shots from a wedding at night. Noise in the shadows, but the look is gorgeous. (Apologies if I've posted this too many times. Mine was not the silliest wedding camera there. The groom is examining polaroids from his Graflex!)

That's a beautiful photograph. I love the gestures, color... everything, and the motion blur adds to the drama. Nice work!

Thank you Matt. It looks ok to me. I just need ISO 200 NO more with Strobes. Thanks Dennis

OK, I just purchased a Phase One IQ2 60 Back. Will get it this week. Looking forward to a NEW Experience with Phase One. Thank you all for your input.

Congratulations! I look forward to the results.

Thank you Matt. I hope to use it soon. I am looking for a wider Lens. I have the P1 SK 80.LS and want wider for group shots. I dont want to buy a BR lens.
How is the P1 55 LS ? They seem to vary in price quite a bit. Ty
