A new weather term I have learned on this trip to Ireland is unsettled. The weather will be unsettled. This picture defines the term unsettled weather. Rain, sun, clouds and wind all at once. The workshop we are doing is going extremely well. You can follow us at www.podas.info. What an excellent start to the day.
WOW, What a week. The company I work for Phase One has announced a whole new line of game changing digital camera backs. The IQ180 is an 80megapixel capture with a revloutionary interface for working with the camera and has a ton of ultra cool features. I am proud that I have the only one in North America and have had the chance to shoot with it. The results are astounding.
I am now in San Miguel, Mexico visiting Michael Reichmann who is host of one of the web’s most popular photography sites. Michael is field testing the back this week along with a host of other notable reviewers. I head to San Francisco on Wednesday for several days there showing the back to a few VIP photographers. Watch the blog for more information. You can read more about this back on Lumninous-Landscape forum as well as getDPI forum.
Today’s picture was shot with the NEW IQ180 at the Indianapolis Museum of Art on a very cold evening at dusk. This camera back has a huge dynamic range and with a little work I was able to make an image that has a huge range of color and exposure. The file is huge 480 megbytes in size. I look forward to making a print when my travel schedule slows down a bit.
