Phase One Industrial, a manufacturer of medium format aerial photography equipment and software solutions, has released Phase One iX Capture 2.0, a control, capture and RAW conversion application designed specifically for aerial photography.

Features include:

  • Support for up to six cameras. iX Capture 2.0 can support full oblique/nadir arrays with multiple Phase One aerial cameras or dual-camera arrays, such as RGB/NIR or arrays to capture wide swaths.
  • Auto Exposure mode. After a user selects a priority with specific ranges set for each parameter, the camera can evaluate the current image and adjust the ISO, aperture and shutter speed for subsequent captures. Auto exposure mode helps operators avoid post flight adjustments in exposure when light conditions change.
  • Offline processing of files and complete folders. iX Capture can now process images post flight, enabling users to process files previously captured or even process the same files, but with different settings applied. With a choice of three offline processing recipes, individual images or folders can be processed individually or simultaneously.
