Full-Frame

means that for the rst time on medium format, your lens has the actual
focal length that is intended. Using the P 65+ you do not need a mask
to show the crop of your view that actually is your capture area.
Sensor+

les will need longer time to move from the buffer to the card. If you
prefer smaller les Sensor+ will create les sized app. 25% of the

offer signicantly more sensitive ISO settings, lower noise ratio and an
signicantly increased speed.
