Why aren't there any compact fullframe zoom cameras?
3 months ago

Hi Folks,

No so long ago, there were a lot of really compact film cameras; complete with zoom lenses. Why aren't there any such cameras anymore?

Think, for example, excellent Olympus Olympus mju II ZOOM that I had (was stolen). It is a full frame camera with a very compact body and tiny (compared to other full frame covering lenses) zoom lens that covers 35-115 mm range. (Note Sony RX-1 does not count as it really is not that compact and does not have a zoom lens).

What am I missing here?

K.
