Re: Your precious and honest opinions about differences between Fujifilm and others

I would just like to mention that professionals often have very different requirements from non-professionals.

They often value, robustness, professional service support, compatabilty, cost more than hobby/amateur photographers.

Many press photographers, for example, have no interest in pixel count but need something that will work day in, day out in the pouring rain without a hiccup and often only produce Jpegs. I have plenty with very battered equipment no amateur would be seen dead with.

The again, a studio-based pro doesn't care about weather sealing and may only focus on image quality at any price, going for a Phase One.

Almost any modern camera today can produce results we could only dream of 20 years ago, other than LF. They are all good. Have digital images improved much since the Canon 5D MkII? On a computer, yes, in real world use, no.
