I am a photographer specialising in high end jewellery. The subject matter tests the equipment & optics to their limits.
Six
years ago, I was asked to shoot a major catalogue digitally and I
investigated all the major vendors of digital systems. Phase One stood
out as the only one that combined quality, workflow and flexibility
with future-proof upgrade path and Flash centre delivered peace of
mind. When it’s your business and livelihood you want to know that
you’ve got back up when things go wrong. The Flash centre provided a
replacement back within two hours when mine was damaged and Phase One
have consistently upgraded the backs and software providing image
quality second to none.
Since then I’ve never looked back and I’m
now the proud owner of four Phase One systems and wouldn’t trust my
business with any other.

Why use a medium format back at all? Its a question I'm often asked as the range of DSLR's constantly grows.
My answer is always the same: quality, plain and simple.
When I shoot a job on both systems I'm always drawn to the Phase for its superior colours and shadow detail. The pace of development has been startling, from the original Phase I've moved to a P25, P30 and now P30+ back.
Five years ago I had to convince clients to go digital, now they expect it to work flawlessly.
With the new P series backs, coupled with an eight gig card, I have a portable platform that is second to none.
For The Apprentice I had to cover individuals, groups and press images within a very tight time frame. The P30+ was the best choice as it allowed me to work quickly and not be tied to a tripod. Another big bonus is its ability to operate at high ISO without noise. It also deals with the issue of moire once and for all, cheap suits are no longer a problem.
The controls are simple and allow you to check exposure and sharpness instantly, which in turn allows you to focus on your subject without distraction.
The speed of workflow is complimented by the Capture One software which has evolved constantly with the backs. Its so useful to able to put all your images, whether from a Phase or DSLR, into one pot. The key ingredient though is its simplicity. I have never read the manual and yet find it completely intuitive to use.
Its this combination of chip technology and software that makes it a very exciting time to be a photographer. We now sadly have few excuses for doing a duff job when the kit available is this good !

As I regularly shoot advertising, editorial and commercial photography for UK and international clients, I turned to digital at a very early stage in 2001 and took to it straight away. Image production time was reduced dramatically and I was able to assess what I was shooting and make decisions very quickly. I no longer had to rely on the lab and could leave at the end of the day knowing I had the pictures in the bag. I was also able to involve my clients more showing them exactly what I was doing on my laptop as I went along which they loved. However there were evident quality issues that meant certain jobs still had to be shot on film. The two main problems being lack of detail in the shadow and highlight areas, and overall image quality still didn't match film. These problems did improve as the leading manufacturers introduced new cameras year by year.
Mid 2006 I started shooting for Getty Images. The quality guidelines were very strict and my concern was that a 35mm based SLR would have a higher risk of rejection, so self funded shoots could potentially go to waste. I looked at all medium format digital options and the Phase One series seemed to be the best option for me by far, marrying quality with usability. The quality of the images was stunning; eliminating all the digital issues I had had previously with 35mm based digital equipment. The software was very easy and simple to use and had some excellent features, which I now use all the time, such as the image overlay facility and the custom effects, giving you various traditional film looks. Phase One also offer a replacement loan back within 24 hours worldwide.
The Flash Centre staff offer excellent friendly support and have answered any queries I have had quickly and accurately. What’s more, since using the Phase One, I am yet to have an image rejected by Getty due to quality issues.
