I wonder how many professional photographers use Olympus cameras and the "Pro" lenses on their assignments.
-
OM Digital Solutions is a funny name, because it is a solution looking for a problem. New 4/3 lenses solve no problem.

I hope that this camera will force FF camera makers into lowering FF prices. Right now the APS-C format camera market is saturated but FF prices are too expensive for most people to be able to...

Hopefully other medium format camera makers will follow Fuji and go mirrorless.
-
The sensor market is small for medium format cameras because the medium format market is small. The cameras are just too expensive, and only well heeled amateurs and successful pros can afford them.

There is a market for a lens adapter. Imagine putting used Zeiss lenses or Pentax 6x7 lenses on this camera with a lens adapter. Medium format is great for macro photography and for landscape...

Mirrorless makes sense for medium format cameras because the mirror makes the camera a lot bigger and it also creates lots of vibration and noise when it flaps around. Kudos to Fuji for doing away...

Inflation is a mind set. If consumers refuse to buy or buy less, inflation will disappear.

Just look at the buying guide for cameras under $1,000. Not a single one of them is a full frame camera. All of them are APS-C or m4/3, and almost 20 years have passed since the Nikon D70 took the...

I blame oil companies for the high price of gasoline, averaging over $4 in Northern California. They do this by shutting down oil refineries for "maintenance." When there is not much demand for...

Businesses are racing to gouge consumers. To protect themselves, they should stop buying stuff that they do not need and also look for cheaper alternatives if they really need something urgently....

Used film cameras have been dirt cheap for the past 2 decades, and they are still dirt cheap in most cases in spite of the current fad of using film. Manual focus lenses are also widely available...

Camera makers used to hire automobile stylists from Porsche and VW to design their camera bodies. This camera appears to be antithetical to that philosophy It looks the exact opposite of the...

I prefer cameras with moderate number of pixels. It makes for snappier pictures with higher contrast. That is what the brain perceives as a sharper image.
-
People want more pixels. They equate more pixels with sharper images. Things are not that simple. More pixels means smaller pixels and that means lower S/N ratio or more noise. More pixels also...

The point is forcing people to pay tons of money for an accessory that can only be bought from the camera makers. People used to need to buy a $1000 wireless file transfer accessory unit before...

Film and vinyl records are making a comeback because there is a whole generation who is born after both of them have croaked. People who are 21 years old grew up without even knowing what vinyl...

Medium format film was so expensive that it died even before 35mm film cameras did. Professionals who shot medium format can justify the high price of medium format cameras because of the high...

Medium format was an easy upgrade for film shooters who wanted better image quality than 35mm film cameras. Sadly, it will not be as easy for DSLR users to move up to medium format. There is a...

Full frame cameras and lenses are moving upmarket, and it is little wonder that the camera sales in 2020 is down 40% from the year before. A declining camera market is also why used lenses are...
