It would increase size/weight.
Unless they'd shrink zoom ratio.

I wonder if the lens has faster f-stop at same FLs than p900, or not. Somehow I think it's slower...

what about autofocus, stabilization and physical shutter?
Q has rolling shutter about 1/13 second -- long!

and btw locating target would be difficult with a prime... with a zoom you can point...

@mosc
Red herrings. Nikon P900/P1000 use CDAF only are therefore there is no limit of f-stop they can focus at.

Lol, Android was originally intended for cameras not phones.

40/2.8 is pretty awkward on aps-c. 30 f/2 pancake would be much better.

You're flattering me; I'm just a broken person with too much free time. I don't really understand it myself; I can't understand related question -- would a light field camera ('Lytro') give more ...

Does conventional color film with primary colors but layers which are transparent lose light? If Lippmann method doesn't lose light why it requires long exposures?

Unfortunately, it doesn't explain angular response of AF pixels, esp. in real cameras. It probably has to be measured. Many cameras don't even give real values of these pixels in RAW files. I don't ...

@BlueBomberTurbo
do they say 6 elements in 5 groups? looks like Planar.

So that would be a sensor with 42*3 = 126 million photodetectors? The problem with bayer per se is not that demosaic needed but loss of light. You can always go away from demosaic by making pixels ...

It appears that talking about baseline actually moves you away from understanding how OSPDAF works. Is there is none, how else would you get left-looking and right-looking pixels? It's imperfect ...

@Ergo607
True but that's not reason to pretend that APS required new lenses.

@Ergo607
It shows this particular point is invalid. And now many people use FF lenses on 1.6 crop cameras despite larger size discrepancy. CaNikon didn't even care to make a complete EF-S/DX lenses...

Didn't Nikon Pronea and Canon IX used standard F & EF mounts? Nikon Pronea lenses have reduced back focus and don't work on standard SLRs but Pronea bodies can accept any conventional F lenses.

Funny this is, modern Nikon aps-c DSLRs don't accept Pronea lenses despite pronea lenses having even somewhat wider coverage than digital aps-c

This would be great! But brands are reluctant even to add simple focus stacking.

This Yongnuo has more complex optical formula.
Yes in-camera correction has correct some things but it won't fix blurry corners which is a problem with nifty fifties.

Doesn't Faststone display only embedded jpegs and not actual RAW data?

The Oly has a slower f-stop and smaller sensor and thefore suffers diffraction blur, so its 12 mp are more like 6 mp of this camera. The sealife easily wins.
