respectively. This series sets new standards for medium format camera system handling and performance.

World leading image quality
The Phase One IQ series digital backs offers 80, 60.5 and 40 megapixels resolution respectively. IQ180 and IQ160 both capture in
full-frame 645 format. With these backs you can capture images of stunning quality with extreme detail reproduction. The high
resolution gives you maximum versatility with your images, ensuring high quality and usage, even when you work with cropped
images. The full-frame capture format ensures the best wide angle performance with your lenses.
Touch screen display
The touch screen lets you zoom, pan and browse through images fast and it is easy to navigate between different menus and
features. IQ180 digital back is designed with invisible controls that are context sensitive and appear only when specific areas of the
screen are touched. One example of this is the unique instant zoom function, which allows you to zoom just by using just one finger.
Small histograms and highlight warnings can be enlarged to full screen view by simply touching them.
Wide format display allows for a full 4:3 aspect ratio VGA resolution image next to histogram, highlight warning, focus mask, EXIF
data, and touch controls. It is possible to operate the IQ180 using the touch screen display or the well-known and intuitive 4-button
navigation.
Highest resolution camera display with vibrant colors
The IQ180 features a large 3.2" high resolution touch display. With the 1.15 megapixel resolution display very fine details can be
checked instantly. With a very high pixel pitch of 290 ppi (dpi) most people can't distinguish between the individual pixels at a normal
viewing distance. The automatic adjustment of brightness and contrast ensures that the display is visible in various light scenarios.
The display also has an extreme viewing angle of 170 degrees, so images easily can be validated at a glance. It has extremely good
color rendition and color gradations with 16 million colors.
Fastest tethered capture
With the IQ180 you are sure to have consistent fast capture rates when photographing. The digital back features a FireWire 800
connection, ensuring the fastest tethered capture speeds possible today.
A new optimized hardware feature is the integrated battery charger which charges the battery from the FireWire 800 connection.
This ensures that the battery is charged when you’re shooting tethered, and your back is always ready for untethered use offering
you more versatility in your creative work.
Sensor+ for high ISO captures
The IQ180 can support your photography in a variety of work conditions. The digital back features the patented Sensor+ technology
making it a highly versatile tool that helps you capture beautiful images in a variety of working conditions. You can choose to shoot
in full resolution – up to 80 megapixel - or you can use the Sensor+ technology and go for a faster workflow, capturing images with
up to 20 megapixel resolution at 4 times higher ISO speeds, up to ISO 3200.
Capturing in Sensor+ mode is especially well suited for shooting in low light conditions and the technology enables you to capture
sharper images with less moiré. With Sensor+ there are no crop or lens factors; you get the maximum wide angle performance with
your lenses.
With the Focus Mask tool, known from Capture One, you no longer need to zoom to validate your focus. When the Focus Mask is
turned on, the IQ180 automatically displays a colored semi-transparent mask on top of the preview to show which parts of the
image are in focus. It's extremely useful to validate depth-of-field and get instant feedback about whether a shot is perfectly
focused or not.
The IQ180 has memory card interface capable of moving data faster than any current memory cards can deliver. In practice this
means that with the fastest CompactFlash cards you can continue to capture images until your card is full without experiencing any
slowdown in performance.
12.5 f-stops dynamic range
Reproduce scenes with extreme tonal differences and details in one shot from the 12.5 f-stops dynamic range.
Vertical and horizontal capture guidance
The IQ180 has vertical and horizontal capture guidance available to help you align your shots perfectly. Like a virtual horizon in an
aircraft, it meassures the roll and pitch of the camera, and in Capture One the data from the tool can be used to rotate or perform
keystone correction.
With the IQ180 digital back you can now personalize your camera with your own background image, splash screen, or logo.
Entirely built of 100% machined aircraft grade aluminum for highest quality black chrome finish. Stronger than any other digital back.
Black Anodizing surface and LCD cover glass are extremely scratch resistant. All electronic connectors and ports are protected with
automatic retracting hatches or rubber covers.
Compatibility with the Phase One 645DF camera has been improved over previous digital backs. For instance the power state of the
back can now be controlled directly from the camera.
Capture One has been optimized for shooting with Phase One IQ digital backs. Together with the digital back this professional RAW
converter and image editing software deliver the world’s highest image quality withexcellent color and detail. It contains all the
essential tools and high-end performance in one package to enable you to capture, organize, edit, share and print images in a fast,
flexible and efficient workflow.
You can choose various service levels for the IQ180, e.g. a value-added option which includes a life-time (5 year) warranty, a free
loaner unit during repair and other options. Phase One offers 365 days round the clock support.
