Not so. Smartphone imagery is thin and stilted, hardly capable of printing beyond 5 x 7. What good is that? Can you hang them in a museum (assuming you are the next Ansel Adams)? Why not try to be...

Well, that's why Nikon covered both ends.

Somebody below says we are at peak "smartphone" imaging, starting to edge into gimmicks mimicking genuine post-processing capabilities of real cameras. When people fall in love with the depth of...

Canon "EOS R" event rumored to be tomorrow (5 Sep 18). Panasonic "mirrorless" event 20 days out, say rumor mills.

They are still TOO LARGE. Compare the Olympus SLR of the 1970s to the BRICKS that are necessary today to do the same or less in imaging output. Digital mirrorless STILL has not caught up to...

Smartphone imagery is less than it appears to be. Later, when decent prints are desired, there is hardly anything there. I have post-processed the iPhone 6 JPG output and it is limited to 5 x 7...

For what you get, the new Nikon D3500 (which includes a $250 kit zoom lens) for less than $500 is absolutely the best value in modern digital cameras. It isn't mirrorless and isn't full-frame but...

I take that back. The "picture" is actually of an EOS M5 top view misleadingly running next to the EOS R headline. That camera from this aspect is impressive, especially the controls.

There are lots of pictures of it online. Why not show one here, DP?

The camera is ugly and this something these smart "editors" should have noticed. Let's get away from the passe 20th century "pentaprism" look. It is not necessary and only persists because of a...

I say again, it's ugly.

It's ugly.

The fake pentaprism is ugly, no question. There is nothing ugly about the Fuji X-Pro 2, which shows that integration of an EVF can be done in a handsome mirrorless design. But not by Nikon,...

Agreed. The teaser is a vapid nothing burger.

Imagine how junky and scratched the silver plastic will look after a year or so usage. In any case, with lack of RAW capacity, it is hardly more than a glorified smartphone camera, though much...

What about beauty? As stated elsewhere, all cameras with pentaprisms (or pentaprism-like housings) are ugly. This feature is a passé relic of the late 20th century reflex film cameras because it...

It's ugly. You know?

Beautiful design is NOT "irrelevant." Far from it, for those not trampled down by their own ennui. The very fact this has to be said and upheld is a sad eventuality these days of ugliness and cant....

It's mirrorless with a pentaprism (housing) and it's ugly. Period. All cameras with pentaprisms (or pentaprism-like housings) are ugly. Anyone with an aesthetic sense for sleek beauty in machines...

If it has a pentaprism (as it appears) then it will be ugly.
