I need to see one or two before I totally rule out the idea of just shooting film and non-IS lenses. I have yet to get a roll of ISO800 film back from CVS. And ultimately a VR lens can't replace a tripod. The Nikon gear is easier to use to get handheld shots in low light (obviously even 1 extra stop can be the difference between a good shot and a bad one) but by the same token it leads me to take shots that I shouldn't take. The highlights are not going to get blown-out or not depending on the exact exposure, like with a digital camera. That's not hard to do and there's no real advantage in bracketing film, it's either well-exposed or overexposed or underexposed. Nice, light, and effectively just as good as the N80, even if it doesn't support bracketing and the timer has to be reset after every shot. My big problem with the 500si is the lack of a light on the LED. And the N80, while an excellent full-featured "camera", shoots film just like the 500si and I think that it has a slight metering problem in low light. In other news I'm thinking seriously about selling all my Nikon gear and just shooting the 500si and the Tamron 28-300 and 19-35 for a while.maybe I'll trade up to the 17-35, maybe not.I doubt that there is much difference between the two of them.but the VR lens is heavy, the VR is no real advantage in good light, I already have the same focal-length range on the 500si, I have no real urge to shoot the D70 instead of film, and there's no way that I'm buying a D700 or another NIkon subframe anytime soon. On my little one the sky is a nice blue :(Ĭalibrated them both with the same spyder3, of course they don't look the same with the same image For ~$570, you can select two adapters ~$710 will get you three adapters and for ~$770 you can put your name down for two complete I’m Back MF kits.Flickr is actually earning its money here.I have 15 shots or so that came out green from cross-processing or underexposure or something and I'm trying to fix the tint.much easier to see how it "really" looks in small format against a white background.Īnd obviously it doesn't look the same on my other monitor For now, a pledge of ~$400 will put you down for one I’m Back MF digital back, and one adapter of your choice. With 51 days to go, the Kickstarter campaign has already raised nearly $19,000 of the $51,000 it needs to be fully funded and sold out of its $300 early-bird deal. The answer from at least 56 backers as of this writing is “yes.” Knowing all this, the only remaining question is: will the I’m Back digital back for medium format cameras be worth it to you.
#LEAF APTUS II 6 DIGITAL BACK PROFESSIONAL#
In the company’s defense, they’re not shy about the fact that you won’t be pixel peeping these shots, writing that, “I’m Back was intended for those who want to have fun and are tired to discuss about high resolutions and megapixels!!!” and “may not be suitable for professional photographers who wish to maximize the number of pixels in an image.” There’s no denying it: this digital back will not be able to compete with a proper digital back from the likes of Hasselblad. Given enough interest, the company is hoping to fund a total of 10 different adapters, making this a very versatile option for turning old medium format bodies into functioning digital cameras. I’m Back, on the other hand, is trying to fund a low-res, small-sensor digital back that will work with most old medium format cameras and only cost you $400 for the digital back and a camera adapter of your choice.
But while pricing hasn’t been announced for the CFV II 50c, you can bet it’s going to cost thousands. Hasselblad released its CFV-50c back for V-System cameras back in 2014, and it just updated it last month, releasing a version 2 alongside a new 907X camera body. Slapping a digital back onto older medium format bodies isn’t a new idea. And this time they’re funding an affordable digital back that seeks to breathe new life into old medium format cameras from Hasselblad, Bronica, Pentax, Mamiya and more. I’m Back, the company behind the popular Digital Back for old 35mm SLRs, is… well… back.
