SupremeWideAngle: I just got the Novoflex TrioBalance Q6/9, I think that it is the best and most versatile you can get for your money, I was very lucky to find it, because unfortunally it is no longer in production ? Though Novoflex still have it in a picture on their homepage, the one to the left in the upper photo here...

I can see it is still listed in some photoshop dealers...

entoman: There is no mention of this on the Iford website (I checked the press releases page), which seems very strange if the product is to start shipping next month.
Is this really an Ilford product, or is it an Asian manufacturer that has done a deal to use the Ilford name?
Ilford do have an empty web site for it with passwod protection !?

I think you can find a lot of much better quality second hand cameras for $35 !
:D I have never ever before heard the expression "half macro" :D
Keep coming with high resolution compact lenses, get going with compact long tele prime lenses, 300, 400, 500...
THAT is a very hefty price for a MTF zoom lens, especially considering the uncertain future of Olympus cameras !
The most safe storage are several different types of external hard drives of your own.

SupremeWideAngle: No thanx, a macro lens shold NOT have autofocus !
Most modern autofocus lenses are too complitated designed and vulnable, I like a simple and rugged lens that can stand some beating, Yes I have allways used mine macro lenses as allround for people, portrait, landscape, arcitecture, street and every thing else. My modern autofucus lenses that are not macro lenses is at manual focus most of the time, in many cases autofocus are much too overrated and I love to know that the focus are exatly where I want it to be and not where the camera/lens algoritme gets it...
No thanx, a macro lens shold NOT have autofocus !
A comparison review to the Sony 35mm 1.8 will be very nice.
But the cameras and cameraback needs an upgrade to 100(+) megapixels !
I think the most versatile tripod system are made by Novoflex

Olympus peaked with the OM-3 Ti.
I do not hope that it will affect more cameras for still photography, because then I will stop photographing or go back to analog camaras !!!
I regret selling my Hasselblad 2000F that was custimized at the Hasselblad factory one of many times I visited the factory, I also regret selling Hasselblad lenses Distagon 50mm 2.8, Planar 110mm 2.0, Tele-Tessar 350mm 4.0 and Zeiss Mutar 2x, it was a great set !

To make good quality pictures, use a real camera, not a smartphone, the same with recording sound, to make good quality sound use a sound recorder !
Very good comment at the end of the video about the price ! I own a Hasselblad analog camera (and have owned more) , but I do think that the prices of the small (and larger) sensor digital Hasselblad cameras are much too high ! Come again Hasselblad when you can make a sensor in 55x55mm at a much more lower price setting !
To Hasselblad, where are the aperture ring and why autofocus !? If you think autofocus is needed, then you forgot to make a button for on/off on the Lens ! I am still very dissapointed that the Hasselblad X1D II not have a 100 megapixels sensor...
