Wait a few months and see if there are some competition, like Hasselblad, Pentax or a version from Leaf.

Best regards

what do you think guys, is there any hope that some day older leaf back like Aptus II would also be suppoted by XF system?

Post by: Transposure on March 01, 2016, 04:03:16 pm: So, question....
I recall seeing that the IQ3 series backs can mimic the display of the small top screen of the XF. Will the Credo have that capability as well?
I am referring to the attached photo of the menu on the top of the XF being displayed on the digital back as well, as in the second photo. Is that a strictly IQ3 series feature?

Only competition will come only if Pentax will offer LS lenses for 645Z. Without descent lenses this system isn't in good shape. Don't know what's taking them so long.

The IQ3 series has 2 pins more I think on the right site..

Post by: Ken Doo on March 02, 2016, 03:54:48 pm: Understandably being the most recently released Phase MFDB, the IQ3 should have the most capability with the XF camera body. But the two extra pins (I believe) are to facilitate power sharing between the MFDB and the XF.

Post by: DeckardTrinity on March 04, 2016, 09:23:28 pm: Any chance that a Hy6 mount Credo will work with XF?
Title: Re: Leaf credo compatible with XF body now
Post by: cyron123 on March 05, 2016, 03:26:55 am: The XF has only a mamiya/ phase one mount. Only credo with this mount are compatible of course.

No H, No V or something else mount is compatible..
