IQ2 series digital backs from Phase One
IN ACTION

The long exposure mode of the IQ260 delivers sharp, noise free images of scenes I could previous only ever imagine. It is no exaggeration to say it makes ultra high quality night photography a reality.

The ultimate challenge

The IQ2 backs all offer 13 f-stops dynamic range, which is more than any of the IQ1 digital backs are capable of. With the higher dynamic range you can keep more detail, even in the most demanding scenes.

STUNNING IMAGE QUALITY

Pushes image quality beyond megapixels

IQ2 digital backs offer stunning image quality with up to 80 megapixel captures. At the heart of these digital backs sit some of the largest cutting-edge sensors in the market, more than 2.5 times larger than the sensors found in full-frame 35mm DSLR cameras.

With these sensors, the IQ2 digital backs are capable of reproducing the finest details in one shot, even in scenes with a wide dynamic range, from virtually pitch black to extreme highlights.

There are currently three digital backs in the IQ2 series:

  • IQ280
  • IQ260
  • IQ260 Achromatic
