And all this problems are the same that Cloud providers face every day.
The solution is the same for all of us: add redundancy (aka RAID) and remote synchronization.
Drives fail and then get "hot"...

I solved the dilema with a small raspberry unit connected via USB to three SSD in RAID 5 configuration for hi availability. On this raspberry unit runs a full featured open source cloud software...

BBQue you said it! Film has something special: it's organic, it's not perfect, it is made like we are made, thus the emotional feedback. :)
By the way, I also lissen to vinyls, and they sounds...

The cost for producing a sensor grows exponentially with its size. A 55x55 sensor would cost tens thousands dollars, and there's almost no market, with the exception of some old lover of the V...

On the V system the film frame size is 55x55mm, on the X1D the digital sensor size is 44x33mm.
So, the FOV equivalence factor is:

- 1.41 if you consider the two diagonals
- 1.25 if you consider...

I suspect it's a camera...

@JACS >> "If I am on the market for an MF system, I would get Fuji without hesitating."
So you judged the camera, otherwise you would have said "If I am on the market for an MF system, I would look...

Never judge a camera only from photos made by bare testing sites. Go find and check the images produced by a professional photographer who uses the camera at its best. This is true for the X1D as...

As for the DOF, f2 on MF is equivalent to f1.4 on FF, which is equivalent to an f1 on APS-C, and so on.
If it's for shooting in low light, then the ISO invariance of the current MF CMOS sensors...

Hasselblad X1D 50c, Fujifilm GFX-50S and soon Fujifilm GFX 50R. The sector of crop-medium-format sensors (44x33mm) is evolving fast. In the next year the 100mpx version of those cameras will come...

Meh, when the future clearly moves towards medium format mirrorless, Canikon still invests in full-frame. That's a move!

It's never going to be only a matter of performance and cost, it will also be a matter of taste, ergonomics, aesthetics and holistic experience.
Nerds see more the former, creatives see more the...

If only it had IBIS...

Be aware of the fact that the Patonas have no real temperature meter inside. Instead of having a Thermistor like the original 126S, Patonas have a real resistor with a fixed value set to room ...

@ecka84
That's it, if the sensor's technology and the lenses' quality are comparable, your cameras will perform as well or better than my MF back. Congrats!
But I give up, anyone is free to think...

Take the Sony A7S versus the A7R, for example. Why the hell should Sony produce an 12mpx FF camera in addition to the 42mpx FF one? Why is the A7S marketed with quotes like "Ultra-high sensitivity...

If you count out any noise reduction algorithm, yes, the sensor's pixel size is the only thing that matters when we talk about SNR. The fact that larger sensors usually happen to have bigger pixel...

Wrong. You would be right if the sensor would have been made of a single pixel having the size of APS-C or FF. SNR doesn't depend on the whole sensor size, it depends on the sensor's pixel size,...

"and it's usually easier to give a large sensor more light since it has a larger area to capture light."
What counts is the size of each single sensor's pixel, not the size of the sensor as a...

I think it could be some advanced form of image stacking with ghosts removal. Waves move (the ghosts), rocks behind them don't. Who knows...
