The IQ 180 currently ranks as the best and the most exciting capture device I have ever tested or owned. This is the highest praise I can bestow on any product, but it is praise that is well deserved.

PhaseOne IQ 180 Field Review

by Mark Dubovoy

I'll simply say that the IQ180 may be the single most remarkable photographic tool that I've ever used. Of course you'll need to add a camera body and lenses to make it into a usable device, and how that all comes together is a variable that you'll have to work out for yourself.

More Than Megapixels Phase One IQ180 in The Field

WIRED Huge, badass 80-megapixel files let you see skin pores from 20 paces. Big touch screen with a simple interface. Solid build. Remarkably easy to use — provided you understand the mechanics of photography, as is the case for any serious camera.
