The light source needs to be in the shot for it to happen. Thanks, Jeff Derek,

Thanks,

Nice clean backlit scenes, with any visible artifacts attributable to the lenses rather than the back. Some examples can be seen at: http://www.derekshapton.com/recent.html the first 5 shots were with the p45+ -- the first 2 are significantly backlit. Derek hi jeff

Both with sun in frame, as well as sun peeking out from behind trees, etc, no vertical lines such as yours. No such problem seen with my P30+.

But my eos 5d seemed to handle the light no problem. Not great for something so expensive! Anyway would be interested if you get to test out a leaf. Mark. P.S. congrats on getting nominated for the APE photo consultation demo! Hi Jeff,

The P30+ is a different sensor, so it may not have the issue. However, I was never interested in the P30+ because of the crop factor. I want a sensor that is as close to full frame as possible.

These backs have smaller pixel wells which handle the overload of analog light it a better fashion. Run a comparison test and let us know! Hi,
