Looks to be a wonderful body.
I´d buy it in a heartbeat if it weren´t for the L-shaped battery grip.
I can´t understand why Canon insists on this moronic design.

Hey DPR, what were you thinking?
Comparing Canon with an aging old $350 lens vs Sony with a recent $1800 lens.

Why do you do these things?

Is it the pandemic that makes a more than five years old thread about a topic that was dead more than a decade ago resurrect? But sure, here´s the solution: you need an old Nikon F and a Dremel tool. ...

What an elegant solution :D

Polish, inspred from you know who... made 1962 :)

Have a beer!

Smartphones are boring (even more so since Google decided that the on/off button should move from top to the side years ago) and are only good for making phone calls. Of course, I have to admit I...

Right, but visible specks in DSLR:s often sits on the focussing screen and can mostly be easily blown off. If dust gets into optical path in the EVF it might be hard(er) to get it cleaned.

They are different. Type II has 5 elements, type III has 7 elements.

Where are the f/7,1 lenses? Nikon will lose out to Canon!

I´ve never understood why Canon can´t put the on-off switch close to the shitter button, like Nikon and several others.
And where is the print button?

So, I was right. :)

That B is the "real thing", that is original from IR without manipulations. A and, especially, C show typical artifacts from upsampling algorithms. (Gigapixel?). IMO a bad choice of target for ...

@ Bill: N, C, S and F has no lenses the same size and weight as these Leica´s, that come even close to the same image quality.

As I said, you don´t have to buy it. That doesn´t mean your opinion determines whether there is a market for it.

Exactly, that´s why my proposal would be a good idea.

They haven´t put any long Z tele´s either.

Maybe. But I was thinking more like the 70-200s and the long F mount tele´s. The 300 PF, the 500 PF and so on.

Not at all. It would be the same length as the FTZ (duh!) What makes you think Nikon shares your suspicion? Could you share your Nippon insights?
