> Canon have the smallest DSLR but got no small lens that goes with it.

Well, they do have that 40mm (64mm on APS) f2.8 pancake

Ok, so to get similar image quality as a $1000 425g camera + $250 100g lens you need a $1650 770g camera + $140 130g lens?

> The Touit lenses are going to be slightly different in Sony and Fuji mounts. The Sony’s have electronic apertures, the Fuji’s mechanical. The optics may vary a bit, too. Differences in...

@yabokkie Where are you getting your performance data for the zeiss from?

@yabokkie First of all the 50mm 1.8 only sharpens up in the corners from F4 or (ideally f5.6) so that's pretty poor "total light" as some people here like to quote, and how exactly is a $100 lens...

@yabokkie First of all the 50mm 1.8 only sharpens up in the corners from around F4 (ideally f5.6) so that's pretty poor "total light" as some people here like to quote, and how exactly is a $100...

> 32/1.8 is useless no matter how good is the quality unless << USD 100.

Show me a single ~35mm ~f1.8 lens that is less than $100. Just because you can get cheap crappy 50mm f1.8 lenses for FF...

peevee1 : And how does the sharpness of this lens compare with the Sony or Fuji?

These lenses aren't for m4/3.

What's the benefit of mirroring if both mirrors are on the same device? It's like having a "backup" partition on the same hard drive; sure in the event that part of the data becomes corrupt you'll...

Ahem, if you read down a bit "Of course being rumours they may be making up the highest resolution claim themselves but at this point we can't know one way or the other." Actually it's a full...

According to mirrorlessrumours "The Leica Mini M is an APS-C sensor camera with fixed [28-70mm f3.5-6.3] zoom lens". Lens spec seem a bit pedestrian if it is fixed (rather than a new lens mount)....

Looks like the very bottom of the image has been double exposed, probably a shutter glitch where the shutter partially opened at the bottom of the image (top of sensor) before the image was read...

It doesn't look like a jpeg or data glitch as the shifted area is blended into the non-shifted area unlike a corrupt jpeg that would produce a sharp contrast between the glitched and non-glitched...

> It is time to make a FF MILC

Technically the M8 and above are FF MILCs. If you mean modern system with autofocus then the Sony E mount physically supports a FF sensor (see their FF E-mount video...

Rangefinder != viewfinder.

Those clip-on viewfinders are not rangefinders as they have no kind of focus coupling with the lens.

The expensive part of the rangedfinder is the very exact...

> In lack of AF lenses it would be like focusing with the ground glass of a view camera

I'd think it work the same way as the M module for the Ricoh GXR and include various focus peaking options,...

Have you actually tried to use a Leica M in the dark? I borrowed a friend's with the 50mm f0.95 lens, tried to use...

The GH2 sensor has never been advertised as 18mp (you could only ever get 16mp images out of it), so if it's true that the GX2 has the "highest resolution 4/3rds sensor yet" then it must be a new...
