ORF at a glance

ORF

ORF belongs to the long Olympus digital-camera story, especially in the Four Thirds and Micro Four Thirds eras where portability and serious editing often coexisted.

IIQ at a glance

IIQ

Phase One positioned IIQ around its medium-format and digital-back workflows, which is why IIQ appears in a very different professional context from ordinary consumer camera raws.
