Writing with light
As photographers we instinctively understand
the importance of light to bring
images dramatically to life.
As photographers we instinctively understand the importance of light in bringing images dramatically to life.<\/p>\n
Just as the sun is indispensable to life on our planet, so its light rays are critical to create stunning landscape photography. While we cannot control the weather, the XT\u2019s 15 stop dynamic range, along with supportive tools such as ETTR, Dual Exposure+, are designed to record and maximize the full potential of any and all available light.<\/p>\n
By coaxing out detail in the brightest of highlights and the deepest of shadows, the XT faithfully matches what your eyes see, supporting your mission to make great art.<\/p>\n","image":"https:\/\/www.phaseone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IQ4-150MP-XT-32mm-Heritage-BTS-iPhone-Shot-Tripod-1.jpg","image_position":"left"}]})' href="javascript:;" class="button primary">Learn more
The art of composition
Every photograph tells a story. Every story involves choices, what you decide to leave out of the frame is just as important as what you keep in.

Decoupling time and light
One of the XT’s most groundbreaking features is Frame Averaging
One of the XT\u2019s most groundbreaking features is Frame Averaging: a whole new way of thinking about the effect of time within photography.<\/p>\n
By decoupling the two primary elements of exposure\u2014time and light\u2014FA essentially avoids the need for cumbersome ND filters. In practical terms, this integrated process helps achieve the flowing, milky waterfalls and streaking silky clouds that will lend your photographs a painterly quality.<\/p>\n","image":"https:\/\/www.phaseone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/XT_Bridge-1-scaled-1.jpg","image_position":"right"}]})' href="javascript:;" class="button primary">Frame Averaging
Peace of mind in the field is essential. When you’re in a once-in-a-lifetime location capturing unique images, you’ll want to be sure you have captured the best image possible. Immediately review your work on your iPhone or iPad and back your files up securely.
