Medium format back prices ludicrous

The price of an entry-level car? 4000lbs of steel, plastic, aluminum, electronics, base metals, rubber, etc., the same as a 1.5lb piece of electronics?. Pure insanity. Those things aren't radiation-hardened and going into space, so is it solely the R&D and the sensor being paid for here? It certainly isn't the $10-$20 worth of electronics or the LCD screen... Luminous Landscape Pricing, Availability and Other News Phase 80MP back. The IQ180 back will start to ship in late April, 2011. The IQ160 and IQ140 will become available over the following couple of months. The IQ180 will be priced at US $43,990. Yes, you are right it is a very high price. Every vendor has the right to set his own prices. The Phase One folks knows this market segment better than anybody, so I'm sure they will sell well. After some time the price goes down. It's the same with high-end DSLR's. -- Med venlig hilsen/With Kind Regards, Hans Kruse www.hanskrusephotography.com, www.hanskruse.com, http://www.facebook.com/pages/Hans-K...y/271477435625 |
