Debankur Mukherjee: It looks like a Leica body.....should be named "Young Copiers".........YC.....

Roland Karlsson: The 85 F1.4 is a massive piece of equipment. How long can this trend last? When do prime lenses go down to reasonable sizes again?

memee_meen: I had the mark one version of it,
Used it only for 2months and the liveview/viewfinder stop working , Sent it in for repair took 3 weeks solid. The camera arrived back for 3 days strap nut loosen itself up and that took another 2 weeks out. Ended up sold it and bought Em10 instead which offer almost the same performance in half price package.
Not that the em1 is bad but it isn't worth the price olympus asking for,

Btw the Af is as fast as anybody mentioned but the accuracy is nowhere near nikon or canon, be it in available light or little dim situation.
I used em10 mainly for my own little trip where i need mobility, But i still mainly using Nikon or Canon for my work, They are a lot more reliable and dependable not to mention the fast return service from both company.

Mr Bolton: Yeah, what happened to eye control AF?

I had a buddy back in 2001 with one of the Canon SLRs which had this feature and, even with my wonky eye, it worked really well.

Do any current Canon models have this feature?

kevindar: agree with a lot of what you say. However, both 5D and 5d2 very revolultionary also. Canon not only offered the first full frame digital camera, it also offered the first full frame prosumer digital camera with 5D.
The the 5d2 take the market by the storm, buy inclusion of video, and changed the whole landscape for DSLR's.
Canon dual pixel AF with touchscreen remains the best and most intuitive system for shooting video and focusing.
However, I do agree lack of 4K makes the camera dated before its release.

Mike FL: So Canon thinks that Olympus putting the On/Off switch on EM5.M2 is the right side? At

I hate my EM5.M2's power switch, the location and the way to turn On and Off.

Stollen1234: it looks very ugly and uncomfotable...

naththo: Back focus issue can be seen in your bokeh real world comparison from Sigma lens. It needs to be sorted out. Sony one is still stable with both back and front focus so it spot on 0. And the Sigma lens still the problem with the severity of aliasing/moire. Something needs to be improved from Sigma lens still though. I like sharpness from Sigma but few problems need to be sorted out though.

aramgrg: I am surprised there are no super teles for pro crop bodies. Why not make the same lens for crop, just one stop brighter, or 1.5 times lighter? That makes more sense to me than a huge FF lens with small aperture.

Bill Ferris: Thank you for taking and sharing sample images from the Canon 5D Mrk IV. Images appear to have the signature Canon warm flesh tones. The samples at ISO 1600, 2000, 3200 and 5000 look clean. If you have - or have an opportunity to make - a larger selection of images between ISO 3200 and ISO 25600, it would be interesting to get a feel for the noise at high ISOs.

Any comments from the photographer(s) on the fit, feel and functionality? For those familiar with the 5D Mrk III, does the Mrk IV feel essentially the same in the hands? Perhaps, you're saving those observations for a more thorough review.

Mike FL: It seems SONY is very happy with RX100s' sales, and has no plan to make:

- 1" longer zoom/travel zoom like Panasonic TZ100, and
- 1" UWA like NIKON DL18-50

We will see.

Canon is on the game of catching up while Olympus and FUJI is kind of gunshy for making 1" P&S.

creepy.sol: this just strikes me as stupid:

"On the bulky side for a Micro Four Thirds camera;"

no, it isn't bulky for a mft camera or, more precisely, camera body. the camera is as big or small as it needs to be. and it is, in fact, an mft camera body. this is a size that mft bodies come in. they come in smaller sizes, too. the whole range represents mft. and why is this a con? for lots of folks it's a nonissue. maybe you should also list as a con that it's unavailable in red.

kadardr: It is not just the look, but more the feel, when you hold it, manipulate with the knobs and wheels, check out the VF and the menu, so try it. And then if the camera and the price fits you, you buy it. Actually, for instance, the Olympus XA was great, because the looks and feel (and size) was all exceptionally good. And it had no weather sealing. This classic look is more a fashion thing though, but it works in sales, so I do not mind. The message is: try before you buy!
