After visiting the focus show today im thinking about getting a digital back for my Hasselblad. I tried the 16 megapixel Hasselblad one on their stand and was really impressed but i know that Leaf and Phase One also do backs for Hasselblads as well.
Can anybody give me any advice as to which is the best to go for etc...
What budget do you have? As some of the newer, high resolution ones will cost a bomb. Not sure if this helps, but I have started compiling a list of all digital backs avaialble at the moment, with their respective sensor sizes and resolutions. The sensor size is something worth keeping in mind, as it will give you a crop factor on your existing blad lenses.
PhaseOne P 25 48.9 x 36.7 mm 22 MP
PhaseOne P 21 44.2 x 33.1 mm 18 MP
PhaseOne P 20+ 36.9 x 36.9 mm 16 MP
PhaseOne P 21+ 44.2 x 33.1 mm 18 MP
PhaseOne P 25+ 48.9 x 36.7 mm 22 MP
PhaseOne P 30+ 44.2 x 33.1 mm 31.6 MP
PhaseOne P 45+ 49.1 x 36.8 mm 39 MP
PhaseOne P 65+ 53.9 x 40.4 mm 60.5 MP
Leaf Aptus-II 6 44.0 x 33.0 mm 28 MP
Leaf Aptus-II 7 48.0 x 36.0 mm 33 MP
Leaf Aptus-II 10 56.0 x 36.0 mm 56 MP
Mamiya ZD Digital Back 36.0 x 48.0 mm 22 MP
Hasselblad CF-22 36.7 x 49.0 mm 22 MP
Hasselblad CF-22MS 36.7 x 49.0 mm 22 MP
Hasselblad CF-39 36.7 x 49.0 mm 39 MP
Hasselblad CF-39MS 36.7 x 49.0 mm 39 MP
