I thought this might be good but it just has too many things that are massive problems.

1. The inconvenience of having to use your phone to view images.
2. No memory card.
3. Built-in...

It's of limited use as each size still only takes one size of filters, so if that size isn't what you already have then it's no good. It needs to be able to take several sizes if it's to achieve...

I'm not sure that anyone has done a comprehensive survey of which has the greater environmental impact - development and manufacturing chemicals of film or mining and manufacturing impact of...

Though it's far, far too expensive for me, in a world where people will pay 250 GBP (that $310) for a used K1000 with very basic 50mm f/2, I can absolutely see these lenses selling quite well.

Of the three MXs I have, I think only one has a working meter and that one has developed a mechanical fault whereby sometimes the mechanism jams and the shutter can't be fired. It's a shame as it...

A very good article setting out the advantages of both types and I heartily agree with all of it. I use electronic cameras (1/8000s - yes please!) and mechanical cameras (mmm, smooth wind-on)...

I remember seeing one of these in a shop a while back and being shocked by how massive it is - it's gigantic. The review doesn't seem to mention this and and also doesn't show it in the hand (not...

My SRT cameras are among my favourite for their beautiful solid feel and smooth functioning.  My black SR-T101 is probably my favourite 35mm camera for when I have time to really enjoy the ...

But I think with each release it becomes more and more possible to use the Pentax system for professional work.

I think there are a LOT more 28-80mm lenses out there than 24-70mm ones, especially with a slow variable aperture like this one.

Anything wider than 28mm, or even 35mm, is wide angle. This is 4mm wider than any other lens that even comes close to being comparable and you don't even consider it a wide angle?

With the rumoured price of the new Pentax 85/1.4 said to be $2000 or more, A more solid offering from Samyang could be a good seller.

I think it's just optically not very good, certainly not up to the usual * level of quality.

Better late than never. I've been calling for this since I bought my first Pentax in 2009!

That's all good except for #10. If you want to protect your lens then use a decent hood on it. Rubber ones are usually even better at protection than the hood that comes with a lens (if any). ...

If they want it to be pronounced 'Nye-con' instead of 'Nick-on' then they should have spelled it Nikkon instead of Nikon. They are "Nye-con" cameras, "Nick-or" lenses.

Nice video and all the best to the new addition to the family (& parents). Enjoy.

Availability dates?

Until they find a way to do this using a real FF sensor such projects are doomed to failure. I don't believe they'll ever do so because it's very unlikely that they'd be able to offer it at a...

Why, when most people who are shooting film won't be using either of those things?
