Archive: January 2014. Phase One announced the IQ250, a 50-megapixel CMOS digital back for medium-format cameras. Its sensor was 44 by 33 mm, and the company promoted improved live view, higher ISO settings and longer exposures. Its $34,990 U.S. launch price is historical, not a current offer. CNET’s announcement-era report distinguishes the digital back from a complete camera. Of the three original embedded videos, one now requires login; the two playable Tim Kemple/Phase One videos are retained below as related examples, not IQ250 specification demonstrations.
