Need help to acquire Image Transmitter 2 Software

Hello out there,

I got a 2-day shoot on next Thursday/Friday (short notice) and would like to use my 645Z for it.
It is a high quality production for an international campaign, and so far I used my 800E (which I just sold) and PhaseOne rentals for things like that.
Would like to give the Pentax a shot on this one, but was a bit hesitant so far because of the comments on Image Transmitter 2.
Talked to Pentax (Europe) on last Thursday and they cannot supply the software until the shooting. Looks ilke they need to order it and in Europe there is only a Disc-Version...

Does anyone here know if it can be bought somewere as a downloadable version?


Many thanks in advance!
Chris

645Z and Hasselblad V Lenses

Hi bileu, thanks I'm really excited about it. Hope you'll also get them eventually. In my research I saw a 110mm FE on ebay, but it was aroud 2000$. FE seems to be rare.
I bought the 150mm today, the 110 I'll get on the weekend. They were both from a private owner who, for reasons of age, bought himself a mirrorless system (Olympus OM-D, which is also my backup).
Have to wait for the adapter (Fotodixo Pro) until Saturday.
Made my decision after I talked to a friend. He's got the one for the biggest Rollei collections in Germany and has got the two lenses (with Rollei mount).
According to him they are the same construction, only different mounts.
He highly praised the 110mm and the 150mm is also a good one according to hin.
Looking forward to test the lenses and will upload some samples.

645Z and Hasselblad V Lenses

Back in December I got a 645Z and I think about adapting V-Lenses onto it.

I now have the opportunity to get the following two lenses:

Hasselblad Zeiss Planar F 2/110 mm
Hasselblad Zeiss Sonnar F 2,8/150 mm
They are in excellent condition, prices are 500€ for the 150mm and 900€ for the 110mm.
From research on the net I think the prices are okay, but I would like to know if any of you have experiences with the quality of those lenses on a 645Z?

Many thanks!
Chris

I would also consider the FA 75mm/2.8.
It's pretty cheap, bright and very sharp (sharper than my FA 120mm Macro) with good bokeh.

The 55-110mm 5.6 Lens, any user views?

I used the 645 FA 55-110 in a testrun end of last year, before I bought the 645Z.
Out of the four lenses I got (28-45, 55, 75 and mentioned 55-110) this was the only one disappointing.
Even with higher aperture >f8 the sharpness and contrast was very poor. But maybe I had just a bad sample.
Another test on the Lens-Database here, rated it poor as well.
The other three were all fantastic, bought them right away.
