Today, Phase One announced an overpriced $65,000 for a camera with a 150-megapixel medium format sensor made by Sony and a 23mm F5.6 (14.9mm, F3.6 equiv.) fixed lens. If the sensor was made by Phase One and was exclusive to that camera, even in that particular situation the $60k+ isn’t justified for a camera body with a lens.
However, we all know that after a while, the same sensor will arrive inside the body of a Hasselblad X2D 150c or X3D 150c camera or the Fuji medium format camera under the Fuji GFX 150 series. So there is a high probability that we will see that particular sensor in upcoming years in many different cameras.
These camera makers like Fuji and Hasselblad will hardly ask you for $10,000 or even less. So the big question is: who will pay that much amount to Phase One? This is the right time for them to learn from others like Fuji and Hasselblad to introduce a stripped-down line of their exclusive series in the competition.
Camera with Higher Price tag NEVER SALES Well, their CONSUMER BASE IS VERY LIMITED to FEW People
Some Budget Medium Format Cameras
But, one Camera maker shows some effort like Hasselblad did with their X Series, and puts the same sensor under an affordable Mirrorless body, and it goes in the TOP seller chart
Fuji GFX 100S is more popular among users and among the TOP selling camera @ B&H Store
