estorm was trying to be funny... ;-)

I hope soon Zenit will become "Z-Da" (referring to the Nikon Z-mount).

Considering my experience with other f/0.95 and f/1.0 lenses, the performance seems quite competitive. Especially for that price and assuming the build quality is as expected. The Noct better be...

@Janne: ah, "false color" is indeed what I had in mind. There seems to be no smoothing though (it's a pixel-by-pixel representation), making it too detailed to use during live shooting in my...

Of course this has a drawback: due to the smoothing, you lose information on small parts. So if you would have tiny lights, the heat map would take the average of the nearby area meaning that you...

Didn't know about those waveforms. But it also aggregates the vertical axis, meaning that if you have the sun and right below a house in the shadows on the left border of your frame, the waveform...

The USB 4 sounds like good news. And since it's probably meant to be used by most people, I guess the price will be acceptable too. The same cannot be said about the current Thunderbolt cables.

Don't forget that this is still in beta! :)

I agree with goactive -- I don't care much either. But it is a nice feature for other people and if you hand your camera to someone who is less experienced.

Absolutely perfect lens for 95% of landscape photos!

I hope they start releasing the f/1.2 or f/1.4 range soon too, I love the combination of these f/4 zooms and fast primes.

I could understand that the underlying technology is has not evolved significantly to start naming them USB 4, USB 5, etc. But changing names...? Changing the name of a single protocol twice (3.0...

A dedicated remote with physical buttons is much easier to use, especially if you're outdoors and/or with gloves. But I agree that for most people such remote is unnecessary.

@Dan Bracaglia: what a horrible photo shoot! I was distracted by the actual content, enjoyed the pictures and before I knew it I watched them all, before I realised I didn't pixel peep the lens'...

Also, Nikon's 105/1.4 is €2500, it would have been very challenging releasing a longer focal length at f/1.4 for a lower price.

Awesome, my favourite type of lens!

Efficient way of getting into the L-mount market!

The fact that they are designed for SLR and now have a "built-in converter" makes them (unnecessary) large however. But not everybody cares, and...

Will a "yes" or "no" of a random internet guy/gal impact your buying behaviour? :)

Haha!

Or it will finally force (the few that will own this phone) to make regular horizontal videos

People who do not care about those four points, but care about the camera and watching photos/movies.

I only care about the OS for my phone, so I'm not in either groups. :)

There's a difference between "being the first to release" and "being first to release it right". Not saying that this is always the case for Apple vs the rest (Apple is sometimes "first" and...

Hear, hear!

BTW, I love Affinity, hope they will come up with an alternative soon.
