    COPENHAGEN, Aug. 28, 2018 – Phase One today announced a giant leap forward in photography: Phase One XF IQ4 Camera Systems are built upon the new and expandable Infinity Platform. Three full frame medium format camera systems, based on the Infinity Platform, include the IQ4 150MP (151-megapixels), the IQ4 100MP Trichromatic (101-megapixels), and the IQ4 150MP Achromatic (151-megapixels). Each delivers a flexible and customizable photographic solution designed to evolve and adapt over time. The IQ4 features a new level of workflow optimization, integration and support for all photographic applications.

    With the Infinity Platform, Phase One has moved the core of Capture One’s imaging processor into the IQ4 itself. ‘Capture One Inside’ offers unprecedented RAW file control. Image editing and processing – once possible only in the Capture One software application – can now be controlled within the IQ4. The Infinity Platform also allows Phase One to challenge fundamental imaging concepts, such as the limitations of dynamic range. Additionally, the IQ4 delivers new tethering and storage options, wireless integration, and performance improvements.

    “Our customers drive us to break down barriers and keep pushing forward,” said Henrik O. Håkonsson, CEO & President, Phase One, A/S. “With the Infinity Platform we are completely dedicated to grow the IQ4, adapting and expanding incrementally to match the pace of technology – making it unique in the photographic world – a camera investment that pays back with years of cutting-edge operation. We dedicate the new XF IQ4 Camera System to these individuals whose passion for perfection is unlimited.”

    Phase One is widely known for its modular, open-platform approach. Like the Phase One XF camera body, introduced in 2015, the Infinity Platform of the IQ4 has been engineered to anticipate developments in technology, and expand functionality to support customers’ changing workflow demands.

    Key Features and Future-Forward Innovations

    Building on 25 years of digital imaging innovation and the success of the XF Camera System, the IQ4 introduces:

    151-Megapixel Backside Illuminated (BSI) Sensor

    The IQ4 150MP and IQ4 150MP Achromatic models feature an ultra-efficient pixel design that delivers unprecedented image quality and detail. A world first in full frame medium format photography.

    ‘Capture One Inside’

    The core of Capture One’s RAW imaging processor has been integrated into the Infinity Platform, opening a multitude of customizations and imaging possibilities. Key for expanding workflow efficiency, images can now be processed by the camera itself. ‘Capture One Inside’ enables:

    • Improved preview quality
    • JPEG processing
    • IIQ Style integration
    • Improved live view, faster frame rate, and new tools

    Three New Tethering Options

    Wireless, USB-C, and Ethernet offer greater control of connectivity and workflow. In addition, users will be able to interface directly with accessories such as hard drives, NAS storage, network solutions, mobile devices, etc. New ports (Ethernet and USB-C) can offer charging capabilities of the camera system or sustained power from compatible devices. Each tethering option brings its own unique workflow benefit, such as speed, extended cable length, evolving camera control and freedom from cabling.

    Dual Storage

    Support for both XQD and SD memory cards can be combined with the above tethering options to provide a multitude of workflow solutions.

    Open Platform

    Time-lapse and bracketing tools now operate independently of the camera body, enabling sequencing options across other camera bodies such as technical cameras.

      Phase One XF is really nice camera but what the problem with the AF and LCD screen on it? Do they use technologies from the 00s? I hope LCD screen on IQ4 is much better then on IQ3 and live-view now can show something better then slide show.

      60% of Phase One is owned by British VC "Silverfleet Capital". The other 40% is split among employees and founders. Mamiya & Leaf are part of the group. Gross turnover $64.6M, profit $ 6.57M. Sensors made by Sony. The Chinese are the major shareholder in Hasselblad its main competitor and I suspect Phase One are doing better than Hasselblad. Its a niche market mainly fashion photographers as clients so not likely a take-over target.

      I have a friend landscape photographer, prints LARGE and switched from Hasselblad to Phase one several years ago. Has yet to look back. IN fact he is trying (teasing) me to switch. Phase One at ~1 FPS is not a great wildlife camera
