Interesting you bring this up. I jumped on board the phaseone puppy program this past week which allowed me to take home a phase one iq160, 645DF and some lenses. (Courtesy of l&p in Sydney and the phaseone world tour)
The autofocus of the phaseone645 body completely shitted me. It seems to skip around and not consistently hit focus. The whole focus middle point ( centrepoint with a slight bias to the left and right that accompany it) is too big.
In my frustration I gave up using autofocus and manually focused. This also wasn't easy at times at apertures f4 and faster on longer lenses like the 110mm LS I had. (I wish it had a decent split prism focus glass or the like)
The body let the whole experience down for me. The files when in focus were stunning. But too many oof shots for my.liking. I guess that's why there's a lot of p1 users use technical cameras, and it seems portrait and fashion shoots IMHO tend to favour hassy.
Next time I take out an iq again, going to try and get a h4x alongside it. Certainly the truefocus sounds good.
There does seem to be some disadvantages to the hassy, namely a maximum shutterspeed at 1/800 (same as its top xsync) from what I've read.
Phaseone please bring out a better body so I can take you more seriously.
