Amidst the other testing we are performing with the Phase One IQ4 150 digital back, we now have completed an ISO run comparison between IQ4 150 and IQ3 100 Trichromatic. We have learned that no test is perfect, there will always be second guessing (both internally and externally), so we treat any test as a data point. Does this test tell us something important about the product being tested? Can it tell us more? Perhaps, but there will always be more tests. Here then, below is the link to one such test:

IQ4 150 vs IQ3 100 Trichromatic ISO Run


In this case, I think it does tell us something about how the IQ4 150 handles noise, and in a comparative environment to the previous best.

I don't really like to project future delivery times, but we have received our demo unit as of November 6 (10 days ago). It will clearly need some firmware updating to get to a state that is up to speed for end user orders, and I expect we will see a flurry of those in the next 2 weeks. We have been performing comprehensive testing and been in touch with Phase One regarding what is working well, what is not working well, and what is not working at all.

Optimistically, we hope these upcoming firmware updates are close to the mark, and that final end user orders will commence sometime in mid December. If you already have an IQ4 150 on order, depending on when you ordered and how many orders your dealer has in place, you may see yours in 2018. If you've ordered through Capture Integration, you should check with your account representative to get a more precise estimate.

Thanks for the update.  Better they take their time than rush deliveries.
