All the manipulation was only working around technical limitations of the equipment. The end result is what a future camera would produce automatically, so yes, it's a photograph.

I love the idea of focus stacked macros!

I think it's worth clarifying that with native lenses, mirrorless still photography is very competitive with DSLR for focus speed. The weaknesses are in continuous AF and also legacy lenses.

Live view is always going to use more battery, but I agree it should have improved on the em5, which is not even good by mirrorless standards. 5-axis IBIS and wifi would play a part too.

Did you overlook the $250 version?

I honestly believe this *conceptually* is the future. But this first implementation is not that exciting.

What would excite me is a range of pancake primes with larger sensors.

LF1 sensor is only half the size though.

LF1 sensor is only half the size though (of the $500 version).

You can't assess it visually though. Measurements have indicated HK being many times the WHO acceptable limits, due to pollution from Pearl River Delta.

never mind that, those gators are in f#&*ing formation!

@mpgxsvcd probably because the firmware decided the scene had "depth" so stopped down to get it in focus.

I had a look at the EXIF data, and it looks like those shots were taken in iAuto mode, so it was the firmware selecting those apertures.

I think these images were just supposed to show what to...

I had high hopes, but I wasn't expecting them to look this good.

Nikon 1 is a great mirrorless, but targets a niche smaller than they'd hoped. I agree their compacts aren't as good as Canon and Panasonic.
