The newest Sony back is now available from Hasselblad for $13K-$15K. Still
more than the Pentax 645Z which uses the same back of course, but much
cheaper than what Phase One charges. Great way to get your Hasselblad
systems to state of art 2015.

This also means that older backs like the P45 will be dropping to around
$8000-$10000 mark.
