  • Kevin Raber takes you for a tour of the Phase One XT 150mp camera system. This is an amazing camera and in a class by itself. It's expensive and it's for a certain kind of photography as well as photographer. Even if you will never purchase a camera system like this I hope you'll find this video a good introduction to its capabilities. The image quality from this camera must be seen to be appreciated.

    Good presentation Kevin. I appreciate the quality in Phase One gear. Your comment about frame averaging has peaked my curiosity. I would like to know more about that feature. I always enjoy your reviews. It is also good to see Michael working his video magic.

    A really useful overview, than you so much! I own an XF camera and attended a live presentation of the XT when it came out; but yours is excellent, professional and detailed. I lived in Indy for a number of years, but now in Europe haven’t been there since 2019. It was also lovely to see the downtown area too. Best wishes

    As a forest landscaper I took serious consideration over this - but lack of weather proofing made me pass - I had to go Fuji GFX 100 and whilst i feel compromised after spending 40yrs + as a commercial photographer - I just can't risk foggy, misty drizzly mornings with this - Hasselblad 907x was passed over for the same reasons

      @@tjmanou6422 Same story - brilliant camera - but no weather sealing - I used to have the X1D - it is a better camera all round for me - lighter than the GFX, simpler, more portable and better colours out of the box onto the computer - but any moisture and its a no-no - so I feel a little let down having been a studio commercial tog for so long and Hass all the way through with a bit of foray into 10x8/5x4/Fuji GX680 III (sublime) and a touch of RZ6x7

    very nice review. I love to take time to shoot photos. This camera is perfect to slow down and think about your composition. The price is big point, but you get a lot of camera for a lot of money. Thanks for sharing your thoughts

    Luv the Phase One IQ4 and XT/XF cameras -- one wonders when/if the XFG will be updated to "today's" AF - so no more lift focus and dipping.

    I don't think one buy's a Ferrari to slow down, but I get the metaphor. It's a modern day viewfinder camera for high commission commercial photographers.

  • @johnkasianowicz6536
    @johnkasianowicz6536 8 місяців тому +1

    The two rotary adjustments look like they control view camera-like rise/fall and slide movements, but not tilt. Thus, the existing adjustments shouldn’t have much control over keystone correction, correct?

    This camera is ideally for intense studio work with a distant break even horizon. Buying it for anything else is for people, who don't know where their money come from. No auto focus, no video, no removable cards, these are insane limitations considering the price. No image resolution is worth that investment. You can get close with Hasselblad for a fraction of the price, if you need to photograph critical products. But of course - I have witnessed loaded idiots buy a Lamborghini, just to show off, and trash it within a week. This camera serves the same category of brand-Brians.

      The majority of the Market of the Phase One shoot Tethered , so its connected to a Laptop/Monitor. 150 megapixel you need Tack Sharpness something a EVF will not display until 2050, so who is "VERY Stupid".
