Your camera has a fixed semi-transparent mirror. No one I know classes the SLT (not SRT) cameras as mirrorless.
Oh and your SAL 18135 is quite a different lens than the E-mount 18-135.
If you want...

You did see this article's title? "The best lenses for Sony mirrorless cameras" - that excludes SAL lenses, which are for Sony SLRs and SLTs. Considering there will likely be no new lenses for the...

The D500 has a slightly smaller effective viewfinder than the K1, so will appear brighter as same amount of light covers smaller area. You are right though, the D500 has probably the best APS-C...

Considering the sensor sizes, there are space and cost constraints. Maybe we could have sliding lenses where we use one big sensor and slide the desired lens over it. But with the market wanting...

So, does it have no aperture control? Calling it "Ultra Versatile" might be a bit optimistic.
Looking interesting otherwise!

I think 35-150 is great for the people who use a 16-35-ish wide zoom and want to minimise overlap. Not sure it's enough to tempt the 16-35 + 50 + 70-200 crowd, but a great alternative for the 16-35...

samfan, I don't really know what you are talking about. 16-80 on APSC vs 24-240 on FF?
We've already told you that if someone wants a 10x zoom, this one on FF gives them DOF control that a 10x...

As the article says, It captures the same amount of photons as a "15-150mm F2.5-4.0" does on APS-C, so it probably does not defeat the purpose.

And who says it's the "default" lens? It's too...

I didn't comment on price or the third-partiness (which you had not highlighted as a major point before), I just commented on the Nikon not being a direct fit based on technical specs.
And I think...

16-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD - Tamron would be a more direct competitor (for APSC dSLRs). Not sealed, but optical stabilisation and smaller filter.

The Nikon 18-300 is not wider than the...

The magnification stated is the "equivalent" magnification. Still not bad for a superzoom!

"but it has compromises"
So has everything in live!
A 12-100 lens is optically worse than a 25mm lens with less flexibility than the 12-200, so it has compromises as well.

The 14-150 was great - I suggested a friend gets it and one of the Pen cameras and I played around with it and was impressed by the combo.
Superzoom technology has progressed and this looks nice...

But if video features sell more cameras, then the needed R&D to deliver it is not a cost but an investment, so it can help even people who do not use it.

Yes - Or restrict bandwidth or restrict image sizes or anything really that is less disruptive than this.

Cheers - I see that there's no ring now, which means the table is wrong.

I'm curious why the 24-105 doesn't have an aperture ring in contrast to the other two lenses? Not enough space? In general, seeing aperture rings on a modern lens is great, but what made Panasonic...

Bought my 70mm Limted to use on my K1 and my film Pentax. :D

"true artificial intelligence" is a way to refer to AGI and yes, that does not exist yet, as I said. That doesn't mean that no other form of AI exists.

And yes, shifting goal posts it is, which I...

@alexnapierholland Of course AI exists, I think you are suffering from the AI effect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_effect
Or maybe you are conflating AI and Artificial general intelligence...
