So while the Leica S offers a 1.6-fold larger sensor over 35-mm systems, and the Fuji GFX and Hasselblad X1D offer a 1.7-fold larger sensor over 35-mm systems, the Phase One IQ3 and IQ4 sensor area is 2.5-fold larger than that of 35-mm sensors. mm, while the Leica S medium format system offers a sensor size that is 45 x 30 mm = 1,350 sq.

For example, the Fuji GFX and Hasselblad X1D medium format systems both have a sensor size that is 43.8 x 32.9 mm = 1,441 sq. Note that “medium format” has come to mean any film or sensor size between 35 mm (36 x 24 mm) and “large format” (approximately 125 mm x 100 mm), so, confusingly, medium format offerings from different manufacturers use different sensor sizes. mm 151 MP BSI sensor, MF or AF, 152 x 120 x 108 mm size (with the smaller waist-level viewfinder), ~2,000 g weight, ~$50,000 with body and lens, $52,000 as tested mm 101 MP FSI sensor, MF or AF, 152 x 120 x 108 mm size (with the smaller waist-level viewfinder), ~2,000 g weight, ~$30,000 with body and lens $32,000 as tested

The Sony and Leica systems are “35 mm full-frame” (36 x 24 mm = 864 sq. Three of the most remarkable camera and lens systems currently available are the third-generation Sony alpha full-frame family (a7riii, a7iii, a9), the eighth(ish)-generation Leica M (M10, M10-P), and the seventh(ish)-generation Phase One digital backs (IQ3 and IQ4).

Sensor resolution and high-ISO performance have never been better, and I still smile when I remember a time-not that long ago-when ISO 1,000 was considered ultra-fast.Įach manufacturer has begun to define its own niche, and to excel within that niche. Current camera and lens lineups from many manufacturers offer outstanding performance and value. It’s an amazing time to be a photographer.
