Funny the range of responses I got from this thread, all the way from 1) It works, 2) People do this all the time, no big deal, 3) What you're describing is way to complicated, 4) It will break...

nfpotter, why are you being so mean and argumentative with me? If the technique isn't valuable to you, then don't use it. I thought it was kinda cool that you could do this, and I thought I'd...

Oh, one other thing I forgot to mention, is that this technique also works great if your lens supports instant MF override. In that case, you can leave both the camera on lens on AF, and then turn...

I realize you can switch to manual focus. Some people on the Internet are saying the only way to do this is with MF, but I found a way to do it with AF, so it's another technique you can use. ...

This is mainly for tripod shooters using the D7000 and ML-20 remote who desire to have a custom focus point (for example, if you're trying to do hyper focal length to keep everything in focus), and...

The main point I was trying to make is that no matter what option camera makers choose, people complain about it. Option 1: The camera body is too big and thick. Option 2: Bad crop factor, bokeh...

Yep, you're right, if you have Sony legacy lenses. Originally I was assuming Canon or Nikon legacy lenses, because between the 2 of them they own the lion's share of the DSLR market.

Every logical option for ILC has now been explored. There are only so many things camera makers can do.

You can stick with an APS-C sensor and keep the same lens mount for legacy lenses. That's...

Cameras like this make sense for APS-C landscape shooters who want something lighter and smaller than a DSLR for backpacking. I own a Nikon D7000 with 5 lenses, and have an OM-D on order, but I...

Hey Dennis, thanks for the advice. Actually I already have 2 Nikon FE's but the shutter is stuck on one and the camera store wants more than the camera is worth to fix it. The second one still...

Well, landscape photographers are always looking for the best IQ they can get, thus the allure of FF. Presumably any serious attempt at landscape photography will involve backpacking, thus the...

Crazy thought ... Get this lens and a Nikon FM10 and you'd have a very light weight full frame camera for under $1K. Of course, it wouldn't be digital, but it would be a small, light kit for...

Oh boy. Here we go. Get ready for the "knowingly selling defective equipment" deluge from this forum. In this case, however, no one probably cares since Olympus can't seem to be able to ship the...
