Replied in Zeiss lenses for Pany G3?
I'm an old Contax fan as well. As others have mentioned, the focusing is the issue with the G Lenses. I have not picked-up a G adapter. However, I did get the Novoflex C/Y adapter which has been...

Replied in So, who's buying the SLR Magic 12mm F1.6?
I'll be proceeding with my plan to purchase the Oly 12mm 2.0. As silly as this may sound, I simply can't imagine a scenario where I purchase a lens from a company called 'SLR Magic' – I don't care...

Commented on Video Interview: Samsung at PPE 2011 news story
You guys talk as if being "first" has anything to do with being creative or original. Of course Sony didn't invent the TV and of course Apple didn't invent the MP3 player. The difference is, they...

Replied in What Leica should do with the X2
An EVF would be a bit of a let-down, in my opinion. Fujufilm raised the bar with the X100, which has a bright optical finder at about $700 less than the X1. Personally, I'd like an optical finder...

Replied in It would be better if they
"Making lenses for it" probably doesn't accurately represent the situation, but neither does "allowing Panasonic to put the Leica Name on Panasonic lenses". These are Leica lens designs, licensed...

Commented on Video Interview: Samsung at PPE 2011 news story
Samsung will never be Sony. Sony is actually a creative company with original ideas. Every single Samsung product was ripped-off a competitor and only sometimes tweaked just enough to avoid...

Replied in It would be better if they
M43 may have low IQ for a "large sensor" camera but I'd make the argument that it's not a large sensor. With that in mind, those words from Leica – "It's too small for a large sensor" – may have...

Commented on Panasonic DMC GX1 Preview preview
No, the real shame is that they didn't introduce another Leica prime. We need a wide-angle to complement the 25mm Summilux and Macro-Elmarit. Ideally, we could get this paired with a 10 or 12mm...

Commented on Just Posted: Panasonic Lumix DMC GX1 hands-on preview and video news story
Good observation. The interface on Lumix has always been really crappy, and it's my only real complaint about my G3 (others include the plastic body and low res display). And while the GX-1 does...

Commented on Panasonic unveils DMC-GX1 Micro Four Thirds camera news story
Metal body and ergonomic access to AE-Lock. I love my G3, and I just got it, but the GX-1 will be the camera I carry around. The G3 will basically be there for when I need the flip-out display...

Commented on Panasonic unveils DMC-GX1 Micro Four Thirds camera news story
Metal body and ergonomic access to AE-Lock. I love my G3, and I just got it, but the GX-1 will be the camera I carry around. There's just something much more intimate about a slim, metal body. I...

Commented on Nikon 1 System Preview Preview preview
The camera you describe exists. It's called the M9. If only you didn't have to sell your children into slavery to afford one only to wait 4 months for your lenses to ship...

Commented on Nikon 1 System Preview Preview preview
Funny, the only thing I like about this new system are the austere aesthetics. If it was a m43 body, I would have per-ordered ASAP. I love the portability of the m43, but the Panasonic bodies are...

Commented on Carl Zeiss announces Distagon T* 2/25 for Canon and Nikon news story
Here, here. The only thing that still has me lamenting over the transition to digital is the fact that my trusty RTS II and Zeiss primes sit in their bag more than anything else. The Contax bodies...
