Absolute and relative values have little to do in discussion about workong tools. You either need and can/can't afford a certain tool. If you can get its value back through work assignments means ...

As I wrote in another thread, people not earning the money for the lenses and the rest of the photo-equipment with photography are having too much money and really not qualified to complain about ...

Still not so cheap, not 1,2. Projecting the same image on smaller area doesn't make it easier to produce lens that take care of light trasmission. If we go back to original question we are ...

I would say it has more to do with manufacturing costs, quality of the components and tolerances/quality thresholds.

Well you still haven't answered my question. Where are those lenses with similar construction and apparent qualities for much lower price? Both you and me are guessing when it comes to qualities of ...

Hmm, where are those "other people" who manage to make 1,2 lens of similar construction and apparent qualities for smaller sensor? There are no reviews, we have no MTF to look at so I find it a ...

End.

The.

Of course you can if you spend far more time running and exercising than taking photos of cats or motorbikes or reading numerous posts on different forums ;-) I guess that one month of healthy ...

Hi Martin! What did you expect? Same people, same behavior. This kind of discussion is way more than "help" to someone that happen to ask some basic technical questions. It always turns into ...

Hmm, you don't say anything about the way the "ultimate knowlegde" was preached by some of "equivalence experts"?! Even if someone was trying to say that a certain photo could have been taken with ...

And you are of course innocent as a lamb?

Hmm, PDAF wasn't exclusive for 4/3 lenses.

Those that claimed that video shooting is easy, either have no clue about what good video is and should look like or have same serious issues of other nature. I can understand that some peoole ...

And why do you drag Nikon in this again? Did someone ask for that kind of input? Are you having some kind of issues that  (apparently) should be dealt with, this is not a right place for that.

You get one body from each and make the decision easier...😉

Thanks for the information. Very useful. I feel good to have used my EM1 instead of my GH4 for a concert this weekend since Panasonic decided to increase the e-shutter readout speed but with a ...

Hi Louis! I know that, I was just confused with wording "set up for portrait". Set up means for me something where you are in controll of things like distance to subject, etc. Interpretation issue ...

So you mean we are done with the application of "equivalency" to lens construction and a term aperture? Are you really sure?! 😎😜

Hmm, what kind of portrait photography are we talking about here? You want very fast lens, but are not able to make a proper positioning of the model. If you can't do the latter, no lens on world ...
