Title: P1 IQ3-100 images?
Post by: BernardLanguillier on June 01, 2016, 02:23:23 am
Dear IQ3-100 owners,

The backs have been out for quite some time now.

How about a thread in which you'd share you best images?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Bernard

Pity that web resolution images won't be able to showcase much of a difference between a 5mp cell phone pic, properly edited, and a 100mp(and seriously down-rezzed) web image.

Just saying...

Perhaps using full-mp TIFF files to a dropbox location in addition to a web jpeg? Then we'd be able to assess the full resolution potential

Dan,

I don't care about details or about technical aspecs for that matter, I am just interested in seeing what kind of work is produced by the IQ3-100 owners.

I was in a conversation 2 days ago with a friend who was stressing that second hand backs kept being sold at LL with very low shot count and his claim was that a majority of non pro back owners hardly ever use their cameras. I strongly doubt that and I am convinced that great work is produced with those, but I had to agree that very few images are shown on LL.

Hence the question.

Cheers,
Bernard

Hi Bernard

I use a P1 IQ3 100 and so does my friend Tim Wolcott. We have posted on Luminous before and we make our living selling fine art prints. if you wish, you can check us out online. I just switched from another medium format manufacturer to Phase One.

Please let me know if I can help.

Great, thanks for joining this thread, I was starting to feel a bit alone. ;)

Could you point us to images you have captured with the IQ3-100?

Thanks.

Bernard, I think whats more important is that we make our living selling and exhibiting our photographs.  I have to date more than 400 exhibition images shot with the Phase system.  Since the day I got the new 100mp system its been a game changer from the older systems.  Its a very sweet system.  Will post more computer having issues.

Hi Bernard

I have attached a couple of jpegs that are on my ipad. Three are scenes of trees and a sand dune shot
using the new 35mm lens. I mostly shoot trees and intimate landscapes.  I have posted in the love those trees category and clouds under the forum section user critiques. If you have a look at my website it will give you a sense for the work that I do. I can post more if you want. I am sure Tim will post a bunch of images for you.

If I can suggest you may want to contact a local dealer and try the xf with the iq3 100 back and the new blue ring lenses. You will be able to see for your self how good the system is and get full size images.

 I tend to print large prints and the forest images that I shoot come alive when printed large (recently, we sold 13 ten foot prints). It makes you feel like you are standing in the forest. 

Please let me know if I can help. BTW, I really like your mountain images from Japan. Japan is on my list of places to shoot.

Not always but very often, I can tell an extra quality (drawing power?) from files on the internet in my iPad coming from cameras or backs with that extraordinary mp count. Just today I enjoyed that extra impact from some 5DSr files and that pic in this thread with the enchanted green forest looks luxurious!
Please keep'm coming!

I strongly doubt that and I am convinced that great work is produced with those, but I had to agree that very few images are shown on LL.

Low shot counts on sold backs have been common all the time, so there hasn't been a change from how it was a few years ago. Some are backup backs, some users don't shoot very much. And then occasionally there are those with huge shot counts too.

If the camera is used on a tech cam it can have low shot counts and still be used quite much. When I'm out shooting with my Linhof I make about one image per hour. As I guess exposure and take lots of safety shots it can be quite many exposures still, but it's not like my Canon when one action event can be 500 exposures.

Post by: Christopher on June 02, 2016, 08:03:29 am
Especially since I have moved my IQ180 only to the Arca shot count hasn't moved a lot ;)

It's always clear that a back in fashion or advertising will have 10times more shutter counts compared to a fine art / landscape back.

Yes, beautiful images indeed!

I was in a conversation 2 days ago with a friend who was stressing that second hand backs kept being sold at LL with very low shot count and his claim was that a majority of non pro back owners hardly ever use their cameras.

I don't make my living through photography (except when it involves a microscope ;)). But that's not to say that my MFDB sits around unused. It has and probably always will have a low shot count, even though the Nikon usually stays in the closet. Working more slowly and on a tripod for landscape and still life (vs. shooting a sporting event), aside from some exposure bracketing and framing adjustments, the need/benefit to firing off a ton of shots is not there for me. Perhaps this discipline - if you can call it that - carried over from my days of using film. I was certainly more judicious when shooting a 12-exposure roll of 120 than a roll of 135. But to reiterate: I don't make my living at this...

If someone is looking to evaluate the technical merits of the IQ3 100mp we have something like 30gb of raw files for free download here:
Phase One IQ3 100mp Raw File Download (https://digitaltransitions.com/iq3-100mp-100-megapixel-raw-file-download/)

The purpose of this thread, for the OP, was to see what sorts of images are being made by IQ3 100mp. Of course 99% of our IQ3 100mp owners aren't on forums, but it would be great to see who on the forum is producing what kind of images with the 100mp.

By the way, I think it's a complete misunderstanding to say you can't see the quality of medium format at web res. Most of our clients are buying medium format for reasons other than resolution (or at least that's not their primary goal). The color, tonality, and overall look of medium format is the main driver, and that is visible even at low res.

It's true - some non professionals turn in digital backs with very low shot counts. In our experience, this is the exception. Most units we accept have a reasonable amount of use. But a busy pro might shoot 2000 frames in a day for days on end, while many non professionals might shoot a landscape scene or a studio project and not take anywhere near the same amount of shots. And that might happen twice a month, or as time allows. Certainly many non professional users are not regular shooters, they may have day jobs or other activities and shoot selectively. In any event, there is plenty of quality work we've seen produced by clients, both professional and non professional. In a lot of cases, some of the best work is often not actively shared by non professionals, we almost have to beat it out of our clients to get them to show us what they're doing. Interestingly, these often end up being some of the most compelling images.

In the spirit of your thread topic - how people are using the IQ3 100 - it has unsurprisingly become my favorite digital back model. While I love the images I've captured with 60mp and 80mp CCD sensors, those generally have been static subjects/environments, and while I appreciate that image quality, I have felt hampered in terms of spontaneity. The IQ3 100 has completely changed that. I love the file latitude and the high ISO performance. But we've already seen similar with the 50mp CMOS sensors. For some reason, I never really warmed to the 50mp, I still would take the 60mp/80mp CCD products out. The IQ3 100 changed that. There is something about the amazing file quality, the latitude of the file, the ability to shoot it in any kind of light, combined with that large sensor and all the details 100 megapixels brings. The combination of all that adds up to killer images, but importantly, many more opportunities to shoot in many more situations.

The attached file is one such example that really wasn't possible for me before the IQ3 100. It's nothing special, but the ability to capture it was a unique experience. Just walking around St Louis, in late afternoon/early evening, close to dusk, hand holding a 100mp camera, shooting at 800/1600 ISO and capturing images that retain amazing detail and sharpness. I almost never have any noise reduction applied at all (I have it turned off by default in C1) - because the noise is so minimal, and the grain so nice looking. And I want to extract every possible amount of resolution and detail.

And cropping capabilities are amazing. Sine I love walking/driving around and just shooting whatever looks interesting to me, the ability to crop after the fact even to the point of creating a completely new and different image out of an existing one is a great added benefit. If I crop 50%, I still have a native, non-scaled 24" x 36" print. If I crop 75%, I still have a native 20" x 24" print.

So - for me, what the IQ3 100 really has done is produce image quality never seen in a capture device in this category, while creating much more versatility and spontaneous opportunities in the environments I like to shoot in. I'm not usually such a "fan" of the products we sell and support, I've always liked them and appreciated them, but the IQ3 100 generates real excitement for me when I'm shooting with it.

Word for word, my thoughts on this topic too.

Hell, I don't even know the shot counts of my cameras. Never bothered to check.
All I know is that when I bring the MF kit out, I know exactly what I am shooting. The Fuji and the Nikon kits see more "Let's see what I can bring home" use.

This weekend for example, I am in Vienna with just the MF kit, because I know exactly what images I will be making here.

By the way, incredible images posted in the thread. Thanks for all those who contributed.

It really is. I've done some pretty technically challenging focus stacks (http://www.doug-peterson.com/macro-extreme-technicals/) and the XF focus stacking tool is the real deal.

That's the main reason we are doing a webinar on the tips and techniques of modern focus stacking (https://digitaltransitions.com/events-training/free-webinar-focus-stacking/). Based on the number of people that have signed up so far there is clearly a lot of interest out there. My guess is a lot of them have previously tried it and found it to be a PITA and highly error prone. The XF tool doesn't make it a point-and-shoot experience, but it's about as close as I've ever seen in the world of focus stacking.

First shoot with my IQ3 100, using an arca swiss rm3di.  First image is with the Rodenstock 28mm (using Center filter). Second shot is with the Rodenstock 40mm.  LCC seemed to clean up both files nicely, but it is pretty obvious looking at the LCC shots the sensor has more lens cast than the IQ3 80.  Not sure I can shift the 28mm at all, will have to do some testing.  40mm wasn't nearly as severe, I'll have to test to see how much shift I can get away with.

Post by: dchew on June 29, 2016, 06:26:45 am
E J that is fantastic.

I think there are many obvious reasons for the low-count used backs in the market. Some have already been mentioned. Most amateurs who shoot these backs either have a day job or are retired. Every amateur I know who has a back also has another smaller-format camera system, either DSLR or mirrorless.  All these add up to the back being used less frequently than pro use.

The back I traded in had something like 11k actuations, which is probably in line with most of my other cameras. The difference is I used that back for 5 years! Not many shots per month.

I've had the 3100 now for about a month with zero opportunity to get out and even less confluence of time with good light. So far only one mediocre opportunity, and the light turned out to be a bust.

Photographing that was among the more incredible photo moments I've had.  That one was taken with an a7R Mk II though ;). I don't think I would have wanted to hike into that place with a Phase system :). Or rather, I don't think I would want to make the climb back out with a Phase system.

I believe there are a fair amount of IQ3-100 users on the forum.  I've been shooting with it since it came out earlier this year.  You can see many of my pics using the IQ3-100 on my site:  http://www.gagecaudell.com/category/phase-one-iq3-100/ .  You'll find most of my pics are landscape or of my little girl.  I absolutely love the camera.  Most of the time I keep the 80mm LS attached and use the waist level finder.

Not sure if subtleties are being lost in internet translation but there is an awful lot of over saturated images here, putting it mildly.

If its images from one or two contributors then it simply means you don't care for their images/style. Nothing wrong with that. If its every single image that appears over-saturated then it could be something monitor calibration or monitor color space related.

I would add that those posting on this thread did so at the request of someone wanting to see images from the IQ3 100.  Since it's impossible to judge the quality of the files coming from any digital camera from a few web jpegs, I assume it was simply to see what the back was being used for. But the images are just that and I don't think any of the posters were really looking for a review or critique.  And it certainly doesn't reflect on the back itself.

A few seem  saturated, each to their own.  Sort of remind me of Fuji transparencies, certainly a contrived and artificial saturation but many found it pleasing.

Hi Bernard,

These may not be exactly what you're looking for, but could be close. DM me and I'll send over some EIPs if you'd like. These were taken over the weekend while hosting a workshop with Zach Sutton in Albuquerque. Shot with the IQ3 100MP of course, both with the SK 120mmLS BR at f/4. Image of Lacey is a bit soft in the eyes- but uploaded as an example of oof background highlights.

for those curious about the back, and perhaps the dynamic range.  Pretty average shot, but I did a couple of screen grabs to show how far I can pull up the shadows. The last one is zoomed into 200%.  Not a lot of noise.

Shadow DOF is quite impressive actually, I had been coming at it wrong, using my older CCD workflow, and these files need a different approach.  They have a huge range of color as seen in the sky here, the gold on the left came out wonderfully.  The image is a from a single shot with about a 3.5 stop push in the shadows, mainly in the trees below the bluff and river itself.  Even with this much push, there is still color and saturation to work with.

One more from last spring, 2 part pano 35LS, XF, 4 shots total.  Helicon used to blend foreground and background.  Helicon works great as long as the subject is not moving, so rocks in the foreground were a good fit.

Hi Dave,

Thanks,  the 35LS, can't quite get where I want it most times.  My distance was about 5 feet from the grass, thankfully it wasn't moving and Helicon merged very well.  32mm Rodenstock, would have been perfect here, but I can't carry both and had other spots to hit. 

The 35LS is most impressive.

Hello everyone.

Recently purchased a Cambo WRS-1600 and Rodenstock 32mm f4 HR Digaron-W to use with my P1 IQ3-100. Prior to this I had only used a technical camera as a demo.  So far I really enjoy it.  Also, I've used P1 Electronic shutter for both of these shots.

Correct me if wrong but Phase One DF owners are locked out of the IQ100 backs ????

H owners, any old H, can use the 100 backs.

So Phase One owners are forced to either buy the very expensive XF system, or just switch to Hasselblad.

That has got to be the dumbest move ever!
Title: Re: P1 IQ3-100 images?
Post by: Paul2660 on February 01, 2017, 01:28:43 pm
Or upgrade to the much less expensive DF+, as it is compatible.  It's not sold new anymore but there are a lot in used inventory.

Title: Re: P1 IQ3-100 images?
Post by: Bo_Dez on February 01, 2017, 07:43:29 pm
Is that right?

The Phase One compatibility pdf says the 100 backs are H and XF mount only.

The 50, 60, 80 are H, XF and P (DF and DF+)

Please correct me if I'm wrong!
Title: Re: P1 IQ3-100 images?
Post by: Paul2660 on February 01, 2017, 09:36:58 pm
Under the IQ back compatibility page, it appears XF, stands for DF, DF+ and XF.  It's at the very bottom of the 1st page. Under Mount options, there is an asterisk, which at the bottom shows:

Mount options*
XF: XF, DF+ and DF

I assume this means the IQ3100 works on all of them.

Thanks for the feedback on my aspen images. Aspens grow from the Yukon/Alaska area all the way to New Mexico. Areas that are close to you include the Eastern Sierra and Colorado. Usually at the end of September first week of October is prime Aspen time.

Photographing that was among the more incredible photo moments I've had.  That one was taken with an a7R Mk II though ;). I don't think I would have wanted to hike into that place with a Phase system :). Or rather, I don't think I would want to make the climb back out with a Phase system.

As a fellow medium format user, how do you find the A7RII? Been thinking of getting it as a full frame backup for non-studio/landscape situations like this one...
