    Phase One Lenses

    I’d say the Phase One 45mm f/2.8 AF lens does not have a leaf shutter. The first two on the list are not Schneider Kreuznach lenses.

    Phase One Schneider Kreuznach LS 80mm f/2.8 vs NON LS Lens

    They do work on an XF. I’m just saying the old Mamiya 80mm AF lens is soft wide open, and just not sharp. It was designed for film and doesn’t hold up with our higher resolution backs. Also, it has no way to turn off auto focus. It doesn’t have any AF/MF clutch.

    Phase One Schneider Kreuznach LS 80mm f/2.8 vs NON LS Lens

    This was the Mamiya lens before the leaf shutter lens came out. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/182423-REG/Mamiya_210_604_80mm_f_2_8_LENS_for.html What if you buy one of these Mamiya Lenses for the XF? Then you will be angry and throw it away. —Steve.

    Phase One Schneider Kreuznach LS 80mm f/2.8 vs NON LS Lens

    This lens was available with the Mamiya name or the Phase One name. Other than that, they are the same.

    Phase One Schneider Kreuznach LS 80mm f/2.8 vs NON LS Lens

    That’s the DF+, it has autofocus adjust. The DF doesn’t have it. You can buy a LensAlign, or make one yourself, or this one...

    Phase One Schneider Kreuznach LS 80mm f/2.8 vs NON LS Lens

    The Schneider Kreuznach 80mm LS f/2.8 with the silver ring is a perfectly good lens. Be sure to do the focus trim because it will either front focus or back focus due to variation in manufacturing. The blue ring lenses are more consistent regarding that. The 80mm Mamiya lens before this was...

    SK 80mm LS lens

    Martin, The autofocus doesn’t work. The auto exposure doesn’t work. The aperture dial doesn’t work. The stop down button doesn’t work. In manual exposure mode, you can select a shutter speed. The lens will stay wide open. Focus assist works. You can shoot this way. It works. I don’t think you...

    Anybody else here using RZ67 PRO IID?

    In the RZ, one battery lasts all year. For a Phase One digital back, you could go through several batteries in one day. This battery is for all Phase One backs, and Leaf Credo. But not Leaf Aptus...

    Anybody else here using RZ67 PRO IID?

    Marchaers, You would also like the 140mm f/4.5 Macro Z lens. It's not just for macros; it's good for all distances. Including portraits. --Steve.

    Anybody else here using RZ67 PRO IID?

    Phase One is planning to add tethering for the IQ series backs to Capture One for iPad. I would wait for that rather than trying to make FireWire work. —Steve.

    Anybody else here using RZ67 PRO IID?

    Is this the one? https://www.ebay.com/usr/yi12cu?_trksid=p2047675.m145687.l151929 —Steve.

    Anybody else here using RZ67 PRO IID?

    Besides for the 75mm shift lens, there is another 75mm lens with a removeable 27.2mm Spacer. The tilt/shift adapter is also 27.2mm. Then you can shift and tilt at the same time. But with a digital back, 75mm is not wide angle like it was with film. There's a picture of one here: Mamiya...

    For shutter speeds of 1/30 or slower, you should use Mirror lock up. It will make your images sharper. You need to screw a cable release into the lens for that. To be fancy you could get the Mamiya RB/RZ Mirror-Up Double Cable Release. —Steve.

    Phase One Capture Pilot - High Resolution Image Review?

    Due to Wi-Fi being slow, and the file being large, they decided to only send enough pixels to fill the screen. You can choose an area to enlarge using pinch to zoom. Then, only enough pixels are sent to fill in the enlarged area with higher resolution. I think it will only enlarge to 100%...
