Title: A couple of P1 questions
Post by: BernardLanguillier on October 09, 2020, 09:07:39 am

Hi Team,

A couple of question for P1 100mp back users (in particular trichromatic):
- what sharpening settings are you using in C1 to optimize fine detail sharpening without artifacts?
- have you ever experienced a problem with the trigger not working after switching from AF/Mirror down to MF/MLU?
- Is there a way to groups combinations of body/back settings in storable banks that can be recalled easily?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Bernard

For C1 and sharpening, my understanding is that the defaults shown are specific to the lens and camera combo, so that a "sharpening amount" of 185 for an IQ3100T+35mm would be different under the covers than a 185 for the IQ3100T+150mm combo. For that reason, I tend to leave it at the defaults and then evaluate image by image and change if needed.

For custom settings, it's limited to 3 custom banks and only for settings that can be done in the XF itself. I've not found a way to store back+XF combinations, for example if I wanted to use a particular file type or ISO setting. For the IQ3/XF, this information is here (https://downloads.phaseone.com/9fdf902f-7824-4693-aed5-f89a46e8ae78/English/XF%20Manual%20v1.95%20(Interactive).pdf) if you haven't already found it. (Search on Save Custom Presets in the doc)

Unfortunately, nothing to add on the trigger issue you're seeing.

Cheers,
Ray

One follow up question regarding the custom banks.

I was able to save a custom config and to apply it, but is there a way to create a shortcut to accelerate the access to the selection of a custom bank?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Bernard

Hi Bernard,
Interestingly enough, I haven’t been able to find such a capability, but like yourself, I’m relatively new to the platform. Perhaps others can add their views.

Cheers,
Ray
