Title: WTB : Phase One P30 to P45+ V Mount
Post by: J. D. F. L. on June 24, 2012, 11:12:15 am: Hi there,

I'm looking for a new digital back for my 503 CW in perfect cosmetic and mechanical conditions.
I'm in Paris FR, but i'll be in NY for business at the beginning of September, so a hand delivery can be done.
So i'm waiting for some offers on my mail: [email protected]

Regards

JDFL

My P45+ images are the best I have ever seen. I use it on my SWC/M and my 503CW. I have a regular CF 250 5.6 and I am shocked at how well it can resolve while using the P45+. I will be in Paris in 2 weeks. My P45+ back maybe has around only 3000 actuations. It is worth around US$19k. I have 5 batteries, Manual and all the cables. If I sell it I also want to sell both Hasselblad cameras and my CF 100mm 3.5 lens, but not necessarily with the P45+.

Price from a reputable dealer for a used P45+ is around US $12k + tax (if applicable). For a private sale, somewhere in the $8k - $10k range, depending on age, actuations, fit, warranty etc.

@algrove: $19k (or was that $16k a couple of hours ago ;D) - sorry my friend, for just the P45+ back ... you're way off the mark.

Post by: algrove on June 29, 2012, 09:49:36 pm: Good luck getting one with 3000 actuations from any dealer for less than $20k. I was offered one with 200,000 actuations for $15k. To me that does not fit your "perfect cosmetic and mechanical conditions". Anyway good luck.

Hell, you can get an IQ180 for $29k from dtek and digitalfusion (http://blog.phaseonesc.com/blog/2012/05/special-p65-price-save-over-10000-00/) are still selling used P65+s with 1 year warranty for $20k. If memory serves me correctly, the last P45+ dtek sold had 345 activations on it, and came with a one year warranty and new accessories.

It's a buyer's market right now in MF, and will probably continue that way for some time to come.

Post by: algrove on June 30, 2012, 06:24:11 pm: Buckshot- You know better than I. This guy wants one and I am heading to Paris in 2 weeks. I had no intention in selling mine, but thought, what the heck. There must be some value in free delivery to Europe where prices are 30-50% more than here. By the way, you are quoting V mounts? Since I see P40's are selling at dealers for $12-13k with 10,000 actuations, i.e., 7000 actuations or 3 times more than mine and they are not P45+ models.

Perhaps a mute point here since the guy who started the post is a ghost.
