absolutely - even full frame system cameras

shadows. you can see in them and there's a smoother graduation to light

completely agree. you're left with the maximum size image the lens can provide and you crop to heart's desire. but we look for 'normal' and we're just too used to 3x2 - even to the state where some...

i have often wondered why modern day sensors aren't square or round, as the image circle of most lenses are round. you could crop the image how you would like then and still maximise the size (and...

just checked with the bank; computer says no

this would be it. how it's shown or with a 503 for carry around; with a swc or flex body for architecture, or even with a film cartridge full of infrared

i think it's more of a 'wonderment' of the cost benefit equation

where's the architectural jobs that pay for this?

like what you like and spend your money on what you like, bth i'd expect less distortion and better bokeh from a 35mm lens

very nice, and i've always liked how the controls are set out an pentax. can they focus yet?

that's very true stevo; recognising a 2d image as a real life 3d experience is in our heads. we can't have our eyes tell us the distances objects are from us, so with photos we only have shadow...

yes - lovely colours, sharp, good bokeh etc etc, but it does have the sigma 'cardboard cutout' look

sorry - not for me. my dog doesn't fit in my handbag

that would be worth putting up with the ''is that a camera?!?!'' questions

but why? google isn't keeping track of us are they? i'm sure they always respect our privacy

i also wondered about that. so; with a lens that is only 75mm in focal length, you can't see a large portion of your image. you could be taking the 'one chance only' family photo and don't (can't)...

why not just use the phone?

i bought another a year later

don't tell me that; i'm thinking of selling my 20 f3.5. i like getting (limited) 3d pop from an ultrawide, but it usually isn't seen by those approving my photos

not regretting selling, but not buying. a few years ago i want a 617 camera. they were $500-1000 then. my want for single shot panoramas has dissolved with the trend lead market. *sad noises
