mr.izo: wow. this is how it's done, no bs..
edit: didnt catch manual only, but still very nice.
I prefer TTL when working in field, manual flashes are too much of hassle and butterflies dont stay for more than 2-3 secs in one place. While shooting in more controlled environment with dead specimen manual flashes are the best bet.
Adobe has shown a middle finger to loyal LR users wanting a perpetual licence. Guess will move on to On1 or MacPhun when I upgrade my camera in few years time.
Atleast its weather sealed and has DPAF, now will wait for the heavy discounts to start as that price is just too stupid.
jyw5: This is a stupid idea. Could have had all the settings of the 'film' down to a single dial or switch. What happens when you lose or drop your 'film'??
I understand the traditional feel that the camera replicates, but if you want a real film camera, but one on ebay. otherwise, use one of many amazing p/s cameras available for the same price...without the hassle of carrying a digifilm...especially in this day and age where you already have a keyring full of keys, an oversized cellphone, a giant wallet full of credit cards.
Weird. kickstarter really sucks...
They have already reached approx 50% of their goal. That is a sad state of photo industry today.
tabloid: I will be glad when all external (and internal) mechanical hard drives are no longer, and change over to SSD.
Been done in the camera industry (like the new SanDiscs's). Should be able to buy a 8TB SSD drive for a few hundred/dollars by now. A SSD is far less complicated to make than a mechanical drive. If they (SanDisc) can do a micro card for cameras, then the sky should be the limit with external SSD drives.
Most industrial and automotive applications were already using flash storage for a long time now. Hard Drives(microdrives) have been out of use since flash capacities crossed 16GB/card.
Chaitanya S: seriously WTH over the lowepro news, considering lowepro has really good range of bags and seeing what Manfrotto did with Kata range of bags not a good sign.
I didnt know Miggo was started by team from Kata. I was tempted to get their stormproof bags but they aren't easily available in india.
fireplace33: The previous gen 7 is not completely compatible with windows 7 !
The IT department in the company whete I work forbids the gen 7chip until windows 10 can be used. But that is delayed because of security and spyware type issues with win 10 :-(
So is this new gen 8 chip completly compatible with win 7 ?
Same as before, Win7 support is iffy.

Best part of this lens is atleast it can accept lens collars unlike Sigma which even though not as heavy as Nikon/Canon offerings is still marginal in terms of easy use on tripod/monopods.
Meh, Fuji should have released that 120mm Macro that was shown off before it would have been more attractive choice than this 80mm macro lens.
Seems like US is worse to live than some Mid-east countries.
Chaitanya S: Photographer was putting a lot of trust in those animals. Hyenas have very strong jaws and they can easily break the camera out of curiosity.
@Saurat: I never mentioned hyenas attacking(viciously), what I talked about was curiosity of hyenas. In general Hyenas are very curious animals and they will check out anything new in their territory. One of the ways of checking out new things for them is biting and even with casual bite these animals can easily break a camera.

I just hope quality doesnt take a beating after this.
onemoreguy: I wonder why no 4k. Don't all Sony 1 inch cameras now include 4k?
It indeed does 1080p internally and 4k available via external recorder.

This is a perfect action camera. Seems quite reasonable as most other action cameras come in around 700$ and have tiny sensor with fisheye lens.
Edit: B&H has listed the camera for 699$ which certainly is more aggressive than Europe pricing.
BigBen08: Still no VF. Bummer.
Its a entry level MILC, even Sony/Fuji/Olympus/Panasonic dont offer EVF on their respective entry level MILCs.
A whole lot of Niche lenses to be announced, but pretty sure there are photographers who will put these to good use.
Too expensive.
Impressive beast, I would like to see how that focus stacking works in real life.
