All the lenses you mentioned are excellent, especially the 85mm F/1.8g, howevr, the challenge is the aptima sensor, which is just a different creature altogether. Those lenses were designed and...

I've not heard any lens announcements from Nikon, usually 3rd party manufacturers like Sigma, Tokina, Tamron and Samyang, can be counted on to produce an excellent alternatives to brand name...

And 3,189 of your 3,190 posts are worshiping the 1" system, but you don't have an agenda eh? :-)

Adobe .....you so silly!

:-) Yep,unfortunately for me D300s is the Nagging wife

:-) Duck Tacos are tasty!

Cool! So we're officially friends now? :-) I'd order Chinese but today is Taco Tuesday, maybe I'll get duck tacos.

The currnt market price of a V2 is between $750 ~$850 with a single lens kit. The J1 and V1 are discontinued models, I don't think they review discontinued models for any manufacturer. For example...

No worries, my posts are not intended to change your mind, if you're happy with 1" system, that's awesome. My posts are intended for folks who are researching mirrorless systems , and cruising the...

So posting pics of ducks in a pond makes you a more credible source than DxO Labs? Once again, if you can manage to take allyour emotion out of the equation, you will realize that DxO labs, and...

So based on your logic you're a Nikon 1 salesman! :-) How much commission did nikon pay you last month? :-)

I totally understand and that is perfectly fine, I still have fun using an FM2 from time to time, it's a great camera. The DxO tests and rankings are helpful for people who are doing their...

This discussion about lens performance is very intresting, I decided to check out DxO lens database to see how the 1" lenses rank, as we all know DxO is a well respected site and they test lenses...

DxO Labs tested the V2 on Dec-2012, the link to the full review and some of their findings are below: "It seems strange for a newer camera to perform worse in overall score than its predecessor, as...

Back to your name calling Paul? I guess your "word" is only good for 72hrs? Stay classy San Diego! :-)

It's obvious that you don't care, but guess what? other people looking into the system DO CARE, and the fact  that you conveniently point out the 2.7x FoV multiplier, w/o also pointing out the DoF...

:-)  My ribcage is hurting,

The equiv FOV is covered (18-300mm) using the crop multiplier (2.7x) with slow F/5.6 zooms but you also need to account for the DOF and ISO multiplier. An F/5.6 lens on a 1" sensor has the DoF of...

That's a good point you bring up, you're probably right that Nikon has decided to keep the lens mount proprietary, (and Nikon and Sigma are in a legal war over copyright issues with the VR system)...

Really?  Can you explain why all 3rd party manufacturers have decided not to produce any lenses for the Nikon 1 system?  They're happily producing lenses for micro 4/3 mounts and APS-C mirrorless...
