The IQ4 150MP “Creative Control” feature update (aka firmware update, aka FU1) follows in the tradition of many feature updates made to the Phase One XF, adding genuinely useful, and in some cases ground breaking tools, for free, for all existing users. We expect this is the first of many such updates for the IQ4 which has been christened the “infinity platform” because it was specifically designed with a long lifetime of free feature updates in mind.
This specific round of updates includes three major feature groupings (Automatic Frame Averaging, C1 Styles, and New Storage Options) and a couple minor improvements. We’ve written about the first two in other articles, but if you’re in a hurry, we have a full overview article here.
