Title: Phocus and Lightroom
Post by: EinstStein on February 02, 2014, 12:14:14 pm

For convenience, I use Lightroom for Hasselblad Digital Back CF-MS 39. The back is capable of MS, but it does not work on Contax 645.
The result is different from Phocus. In the cases I paid attention, the Phocus presents richer colors, but it did not make me to stick with Phocus.
I have not done a systematic comparisons. Maybe I should, maybe I should pay more attention on the advantages.

Anyone did a systematic comparison between LR and Phocus for Hasselblad digital back? What's your observation? Recommandation?

Agreed! I wish LR were better than Phocus but it seems Phocus still is better for files from the HB digital backs.

DR is also about a stop improved… half a stop in the HLs and another half in LLs…
