Both have started to sell better since the entry price has fallen under that of top compact cameras with the clearance sales. But the original idea of the mirrorless seems to have been to squeeze...

Same size, but Nikon 1 sensors are from Aptina...

I think pancakes are more relevant on small mirrorless bodies. I'd be interested in one if they also have a Nikon 2 counterpart of the NEX-6 or X-E1 and the collapsible 16-50 or PZ X 14-42.
Nikon 1...

AFAIK since the D7000 or so no more mirror flapping and the remaining shake is due to shutter+aperture actuation. But the electronic shutter option would be welcome, is even available on V1 I...

and why one can't buy a single electrified Nikon extension tube? Well, they are known to be better made mechanically with metal construction and steel mounts, so better suited with heavy...

Huge focus breathing is common among macro lenses incl Sigmas and some other lenses too.

See loCA ("bokeh fringing") samples at the bottom of the page:

(move mouse over different apertures)
Notice the focus shift - the point...

Yes, but... there should be no tint with sharp focus... loCA purple/green tint appears outside the plane of sharp focus

TCs are one of the perfectly standard options, in fact the only macro workaround option recently supported by Nikon (they quit selling achromats and they only sell non-electrified legacy extension...

Depends on the distance. At very close range it works fine; a bit further away helps but just a little bit and you'd need a bigger card; some more distance and you'd need an umbrella to soften the...

Tnx, this was my recollection of the issue too. I've also seen comments, I think also samples, that debanding helps. But I don't recall any relevant evaluation of debanding efficiency. I mean, does...

No more macro test shots with compacts on DPR unfortunately. They seem to have stopped testing DR of compacts too.
Lensmate has some sample currency images, both macro mode and with several...

I'm sorry I don't recall one example that would compare shadows lifting of the two sensors (and perhaps one Canon for a good measure) thoroughly, w/wo debanding, in a "normal" sample vs and a...

Happens in raw too.
This is one silly reality of the DPR forums. A problem is pointed out, usually exaggerated, then a bunch of forum lizards starts "defending" the camera, "stopping bad press",...

Some dumb adapters for F-mount lenses have manual aperture adjustment (usually without a scale). This lets one use G type lenses. I don't know if the available dumb FT-1 surrogates have this.
-
Reversing is obviously more hassle, but works for higher magnifications where the MPE goes but the 100 on tubes does not.
-
I wouldn't buy this ;-) The banding/streaking starts showing up when lifting shadows more than five stops, which is not unusual when doing quick pseudo-HDR in LR4 (for instance, like exposure +5,...

Nice to see someone post actual and detailed data.
I'm not familiar with Oly, but can't you make the camera aim with the lens wide-open but shoot at a chosen narrower aperture? The preview may...

According to the same formula one could add 250mm bellows extension to a 50mm lens, with magnification gain 5x, then the new magnification would be 5.15x. The problem is that this is likely to...
