    Newly purchased GFX100S has red tint

    Nevermind, that's not IR contamination. Honestly it is very slight.

    Newly purchased GFX100S has red tint

    This really sounds like the IR filter was removed… Was this a used camera or brand new? Maybe someone returned an Ir converted camera to B&H? (Why?)

    Newly purchased GFX100S has red tint

    That doesn’t effect the failure curve. It could have been made a week ago or last year, and still have been broken out of the box. Maybe it got dropped after being tested in the factory or an unlucky bump in shipping. Lots of reasons why stuff fails early.

    Newly purchased GFX100S has red tint

    How red/pink? Maybe you got a GFX100s without an IR filter/the IR pass version somehow? If so I’d trade you!!! Haha.

    More on Diffraction - Why is it There?

    If you do lots of clever math under specific conditions, you can use diffraction to store information! https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0030401807004555

    How to implement the one-shot wake up and release with phaseone digital back on Sinar M body？？

    Wow, I'm surprised someone else thought of this/actually tried this on an IQ4 platform. I have a Sinar M, in the process of getting the rest of the bits I need still... Could you link the video? Just for curiosities sake. I don't know of any solution to wakeup the back, but the sync in should...

    Hasselblad XV Lens Adapter Questions

    I think a lot of people don’t use the cameras that much. When I first got this camera, Hans asked me if I was a professional photographer, collector, or amateur. I told him I was partially a collector but did intend to shoot with the camera, he didn’t really respond to that… The endeavor is...

    Hasselblad XV Lens Adapter Questions

    I'm no longer interested at all in the Rollei/Hy6 system. DW Photo defrauded me, claiming that a camera I sent in for repair worked fine, sending back the unfixed camera (conveniently now past the warranty date). I sent it to Key camera, who broke my 6060 back, and didn't fix my Hy6, after...

    Fungus in my sensor

    Yep! It's a bit of pain to always have filters, but worth it IMO.

    Fungus in my sensor

    Yay, glad they can help! Half the cost of Phase One (~?), not bad! The shipping you could save on if you get your own insurance, their price for that is a bit high haha. Could convert it to full spectrum too!

    [Found] WTB: Digital Back in AFI/HY6 Mount

    Excellent, thank you. Hopefully I can get my camera back from Key Camera to try this person, they seem very competent (swapping in new chips is not easy!).

    [Found] WTB: Digital Back in AFI/HY6 Mount

    Extreme emphasis on this. I tried to call key camera today, line was busy. Sent them an email. Are they still in business even? I miss my Hy6 and 6060 back... The Leaf AFi/Hy6 system was the first medium format system I got into, but sadly the current ownership really sucks. Perhaps there are...

    [Found] WTB: Digital Back in AFI/HY6 Mount

    Maybe, I had/have a hybrid Mod 2/1 that works with all backs. Typical Mod2s don't work with Sinar due to licensing is what I heard? You can clean up the stickiness via baking powder, it will polish off the rubber coating and leave the underlying plastic looking great.
