    How well does the SK 47xl perform with the IQ180 back

    I did a search and found an old tread which sort of deals with this but it was 2012. I thought I might ask for an update on the question of how well does the IQ180 play with the 47xl. Had a 35xl and was not happy with the extreme colour casts with that lens, so sold that. Don't want to repeat...

Images come in, initially they look OK but almost immediately the colour is de saturated and the skin tones are slightly grey. The Canon 1D Mk4 files are the real problem - where as...

    Phase One and TTL Flash

    I have a Phase One Camera with an IQ back. Because MF requires a smaller aperture and lower ISO than DSLR adding light during a location portrait shoot is usually necessary. At present I am using either a Pocket Wizard TT5 as a sender unit and a Profoto AcuteB and one or more 580Ex2 flash...
