Disclaimer:

I tried my best to be unbiased. Still, the opinions and suggestions here are based strictly on my own experience and on the kind of photography I do: demanding, all-weather, all-terrain wilderness landscape work. Also, I insist on uncompromised image quality, since I often print my work to huge sizes. As a result, the suggestions may or may not suit your unique needs.

I have a very good relationship with my ALPA/Phase One dealers (this is a small and tight-knit community!) and Phase One A/S. They have provided excellent professional service and have sponsored some of my art exhibitions. However, all the cameras, lenses, and other accessories are my own. They are not provided or loaned by the manufacturers or dealers. The only "sponsored" products listed on this page are the FLM tripod and Kase filters. FLM sent me the tripod before it went on the market and I did provide real-world feedback and suggestions to them. I am the Global Image Ambassador of Kase Filters. I was not paid for the comments on this page, nor have I ever told these companies or dealers that I wrote these opinions. In any case, I am trying very hard to give unbiased information. The sole purpose of this page is to help other digital medium format photographers.

I regularly use every single product listed here myself for my own images, and I consider uncompromised image quality paramount. If you use the best camera body, the best digital back, and the best lenses in the world, you want to use the best filters and the best supporting systems in the world too.
