FlashGordonPhotography Posted January 28, 2018 Share #41 Posted January 28, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) As I mentioned, In my experience with the Leica Cameras, they all performed above the written megapixels. That’s why I’m considering the S even its only 37MPx The IQ of the GFX/X1D is better than the S007, even in its current form. The S lenses have a look (one I love) but the files....?

Advertisement Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Hi FlashGordonPhotography, Take a look here Leica S or Phase One. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
mgrayson3 Posted January 28, 2018 Share #42 Posted January 28, 2018 Obviously, you should keep a complete set of lenses in Hassy, Fuji, Phase, and Leica, as well as SK and Rodie tech cam, in case a slightly better sensor comes out for one of those systems. If any customer demands more MP and you can't stitch, get an IQ3100 or an 8x10 LF. Otherwise, get what you like and ignore the noise. Of course, if you like using the IQ3100 and associated lenses, then you're all set. My 2p, Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrayson3 Posted January 29, 2018 Share #43 Posted January 29, 2018 I already have all the S lenses I want, or I'd take you up on it. Glad you're liking the Hassy! Best, Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgrayson3 Posted January 29, 2018 Share #46 Posted January 29, 2018 S lenses won't fit on P1 because the S flange distance is shorter and its image circle is smaller. It's a different format. --Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBart Posted February 1, 2018 Share #48 Posted February 1, 2018 Since you already have Leica cameras and familiar with the menu layouts and functions, the S System would be a good option. I switch between my SL and S Systems and like the familiar setups. I also have my custom settings as similar as possible between the 2 cameras. You can also use the S System lenses on the SL w/ adapter so there can be some reduction of redundancy with lenses. Example, I have the S 120mm CS lens and can use it on my SL when I need a macro. I would like to see 50+ MP sensors for the S System and I think it's coming in the next generation ...... I hope. The optics can't be beat and do offer extra beyond the megapixels on the spec sheet. You can increase the file sizes nicely because the files are very clean and sharp. My only big negative is the lack of perspective control at wide angle. A 30mm PC or TS lens would make the S System almost perfect. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruz Posted March 3, 2018 Author Share #49 Posted March 3, 2018 Thanks Everyone! Decided to get the IQ180 instead of the Leica S! I hate that I need to choose something other than Leica, but again it has a better sensor than the current S007. anyway, who got the P1 IQ1 series? is the live view working fine? tried the demo in the showroom it doesn't work/really slow, was wondering if its just the demo set or it is a glitch from the system itself.

mgrayson3 Posted March 3, 2018 Share #50 Posted March 3, 2018 IQ1 live view is useless (I had the 140). The 180 sensor is, indeed, wonderful. If that were the only consideration, I’d still be using Phase One gear. But enjoy the stunning output! Best, Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted March 4, 2018 Share #51 Posted March 4, 2018 "Live view" from the CCD backs is not really live view and yes, it is mostly unusable in everything except still life. The 50 and 100 CMOS backs are another thing though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruz Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share #52 Posted March 11, 2018 Yeah Live View dont really work, its green everywhere. Im loving my Phase One with IQ180, but detail no one can fight leica. My 24MP SL takes a sharper detail compared to the IQ180 with blue rings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertknappmd Posted March 12, 2018 Share #54 Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) The S can be used in studio and on the road. Just came back from the Antarctic and the S did not disappoint..
