The youngsters are buying the Fujifilm X100V like hotcakes now, but who knows how long these TikTok crazes last...

A good focal length for APS-C, but a bit odd for FX, since they already have 28mm. A 24mm would complement the 28, but 26mm is almost a duplicate lens.

The question is not only how committed they are to staying in the camera business, but also will the product line stagnate due to under-investment. Like Sony's moribund APS-C line.

Looks like a competitive feature set, but Panasonic's market share for mirrorless FF is tiny. Doesn't look like this model has enough wow factor to move the needle much.

I loved those Yes album covers (but in graphic art form, not as a photograph)

I like No.9 too. An ethereal quality without being over-the-top artificial and stylized.

They sure had interesting and funky looking designs back then.

One thing going for OM System: they're pretty much the only game in town for MFT stills shooters. Looks like Panasonic has abandoned MFT, other than for video.

Fuji raw images do tend to have a bit less contrast (or I should say micro-contrast), perhaps due to the X-trans processing. On the other hand, they do sharpen up quite nicely with post-processing....

I meant almost no difference in downsampled RAW, but JPEG image does have more detail and sharpness.

Maybe Sigma's excellent 18-50mm f2.8 DC DN will be released later for Fuji mount? I hope so...

From the recently published DPReview studio scene for the X-H2, I see almost no difference between downsampled X-T5 and X-T4.

Subtract one stop from the rating, and that should be pretty close.

I like the rangefinder form factor, and apparently many others do too. But all the manufacturers are putting their product development to SLR-style bodies. Other than the X-Pro3, Fuji makes their...

I would rather have a good zoom with paired with the X-T4 than the current zooms paired with the X-T5

In the past Fuji released many models using the same sensor, with fairly minor differences between them. Looks like they are continuing this pattern with the X-H2 and X-T5. X-pro4 will certainly...

The name is a big deal for marketing; 'brand value' is measured in billions. In my opinion, it seems like they got it reversed - OM System sounds like the 'right' name for the medical equipment...

I like the PEN_F too but it looks like the model has been dropped from development plans. They never updated it since releasing in 2016.

From a business perspective, this is perplexing. JIP bought the camera division from Olympus knowing that it was losing money. They must have had a strategy to turn the business around, beyond...

It will be a race with Pentax to see who crosses the river first.
