The Phase One IQ140 uses the Mamiya 645 mount with a 0.79× crop factor (about 45.6 × 30.4 mm sensor). Below: equivalent focal lengths, maximum shutter speeds for sharp stars, a hyperfocal distance chart, compatible lenses and how to check the shutter count.

Milky Way exposure: NPF and 500 rule
| Focal length | NPF @ f/1.8 | NPF @ f/2.8 | Strict NPF @ f/2.8 | 500 rule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14 mm | 17.1 s | 19.6 s | 10.6 s | 45.3 s |
| 16 mm | 15.0 s | 17.2 s | 9.3 s | 39.6 s |
| 18 mm | 13.3 s | 15.3 s | 8.3 s | 35.2 s |
| 20 mm | 12.0 s | 13.8 s | 7.4 s | 31.7 s |
| 24 mm | 10.0 s | 11.5 s | 6.2 s | 26.4 s |

NPF = (35 × f-number + 30 × pixel pitch) ÷ focal length, with a pixel pitch of 5.9 µm (typical for this format — exact resolution not in our database). The strict version (Michaud's detailed NPF for the galactic core) gives pin-point stars at 100% view; the 500 rule is a loose rule of thumb that shows trailing on modern sensors.
Hyperfocal distance chart
| Focal length | f/2.8 | f/5.6 | f/8 | f/11 | f/16 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16 mm | 2.4 m | 1.2 m | 0.9 m | 0.6 m | 0.4 m |
| 18 mm | 3.1 m | 1.5 m | 1.1 m | 0.8 m | 0.6 m |
| 20 mm | 3.8 m | 1.9 m | 1.3 m | 1.0 m | 0.7 m |
| 24 mm | 5.4 m | 2.7 m | 1.9 m | 1.4 m | 1.0 m |
| 28 mm | 7.4 m | 3.7 m | 2.6 m | 1.9 m | 1.3 m |
| 35 mm | 12 m | 5.8 m | 4.1 m | 3.0 m | 2.0 m |
| 50 mm | 24 m | 12 m | 8.3 m | 6.0 m | 4.2 m |
Focus at the hyperfocal distance and everything from half that distance to infinity is acceptably sharp (circle of confusion 0.038 mm). Use the hyperfocal calculator for other settings.

How to check the Phase One IQ140 shutter count
Not every maker writes a shutter count into image files. Try `exiftool -a -G1 -s image` on an unedited original and look for a tag containing "Shutter" or "Count".
ExifTool tag: (varies). Always test an original, unedited file straight from the card.
