Send us an email and we'll get you some pricing for Phase One H5, H10, and H20 backs which are in this approximate category.

These backs are fully compatible with Capture One 4.8.1 and use firewire, so you can use a fully modern software suite and don't have to worry about proprietary interfaces.

does AU $4,000 translate into next to nothing in USD? Cause that looks like a number that is not next to nothing. Not at all.  With the number of magazines I shoot for that are folding, a $4K investment would be a lot more than next to nothing.

Hello,

$4,000 AUS = $3,175.00 US

Cheers

back to the OP, I think the AA makes a good amount of difference.  I used to use the Kodak 14mp SLRc, and that gave more 3d like images, it just had problems with overexposures, and quirky lens settings, software was very powerful, but had its own issues. I have yet to see some of the inovative features the Processing SW had (I hope a C1 dev team takes a look, and licenses some of the features out).
It also had ISO 6 setting, but it was not fully manual when changin ISO, the shutter speed would have a minimum # of seconds.  Interesting camera, but had a small window of "WoW" quality to its use. I don't remember the pixel microns, but likely 9? Never had a moire issue, but I didn't shoot much fabric with it.

Quote from: James R Russell
Today I have 19 photographs going out for mounting for a show, from projects shot in 2008.

Now as a photographer, I used each camera for a reason.  
I believe with all my heart and soul that in a few years that photographers will look back on this time and asked "why did photographer care about this stuff?"


JR

I think the importance is ergonomics and handling flash synch etc

My D3 is impossible outside on a sunny day with flash

My D3 is impossible with studio flash

My H1 is impossible to focus quickly on anything that is not a bowl of fruit or F8

My H1 is (22mpback) is sometimes impossible to photograph a shirt

I spose I need a D3x and some ND filters

We care because sometimes a camera just doesnt work

Everyone else doesnt care as long as you pick one that does work !
