"For Panasonic L-mount users, at the time of this writing, this Sigma lens is the only 35mm game in town unless you're looking to shell out more than $5,000 for the Leica SL 35mm F2" Not true....

Agreed. It’s the most similar camera to it by far..maybe that’s why they didn’t compare them.

@its just a tool - Im not making anything up. I owned Olympus products and have an affinity for them. It doesn't benefit any of us to have one less player in the game. Here are the quotes from the...

@its just a tool. I’m not referring to this press release. There was an interview with JIP in which they said they planned to release products already in development but beyond that were likely to...
-
They’ve already announced that beyond the short term they plan to focus on consumer video and surveillance products. This will be nothing more than using the Olympus name on a bunch of crap.

@Mikho. I wouldn’t say they didn’t think it was worth much. It was in the 1970’s. I doubt anybody or company at the time really had the foresight to think what digital would or could become. By the...

@urbex mark. Exactly. Photography was still the end result but the way of achieving it was now completely different. This wasn’t so much Kodak’s fault. It was always going to be pretty difficult...
-
Only partially true. In the early days of digital Kodak was the number one selling brand of digital cameras in the world (if iirc, definitely one of the top). The notion the they ignored digital...
-
A bigger problem is that digital cameras were never a mature product. Now they are. Up until a few years ago each new generation made pretty substantial improvements which made it very appealing to...

And at $4000 im going to by a Leica lens. (Not me personally, thats way out of my budget)

As someone who buys and sells these as a business, here’s some advice for the current market 1) Don’t bother with advanced Or trendy point and shoots. MJU II’s were great for under $100 not now ....

Why does anyone who likes film automatically have to be a “young retro hipster”. I own an amazing digital camera (A7R3) and film cameras and I enjoy both. However, I work in the tech industry and...
-
Bingo. This is how I approach almost all of my purchases. I don’t care about the physical appearance and actually prefer scratched up cameras. I bought my Leica M2 which had a broken shutter for ...

Not sure what the exact situation is with the manufacturing but according to serial numbers from 2015 to the end of 2019 a whopping 1019 cameras were sold - approx 250 a year. I'm guessing with ...
-
Uhhh. I don’t think you understand how economies of scale work... your comment explains exactly why it wouldn’t work but for the exact opposite reason of your argument. In order to sell something ...

The FM10 also wasn't really a Nikon. It was made by Cosina on a chassis that was rebranded and used for other manufacturers as well. People seem to forget that the high-end cameras you can buy now ...
-
I'm not going to argue about it. The realities remain either way. I'm a manufacturing engineer and have worked in automotive, aerospace, medical, food/beverage, and more. I own a company that ...

It may increase the number of people wanting to buy a film camera but it still doesn't automatically create market conditions that make developing and manufacturing a new film camera a viable ...

If you already own a digital camera look into software called Negative Lab Pro. You can pick up the peripherals needed to scan film with a digital camera pretty cheaply. If you already own a ...

I bet they don't sell that many to make it overly profitable and all the parts are mostly off the shelf. As I stated earlier, optimistic estimates put the whole film community at 3 million people, ...
