I suppose I'm mostly curious to learn if Panasonic lenses outsell Olympus by what seems to be a large margin.  And I'm just curious overall how well some lenses like the Pro lenses sell. No worries ...

Lol. Yeah, seems that product is in the wrong group.  However within that group of items, it might still be an accurate list.

According to B&H, the top 7 best sellers for micro 4/3 lenses are all Panasonic.  On Amazon I see that the top 8 micro 4/3 lenses are also Panasonic.  And somewhat surprising to me:  micro 4/3 ...

Not many people have more than three primes.  Personally, I have only one; and I'm I'm very happy with it:  the 20mm 1.7.  It's performance and tiny size and weight make me not miss using my Sigma ...

I also want to mention:  Kudos to you for planning to hike the PCT.  I recently read "Wild" during a 5 day bike tour.  Great novel about a great trail.  I hope I can retire healthy and take a big ...

Personally, if I were hiking that far, I would take a 12-32. I'd lose the fast aperture and a little reach, and also lose 312 grams, and I'm very happy with the 12-32 performance. I'd only second ...

I have the similar GAS itch, and Fuji is very alluring. However, to me, lenses make the picture and the photo taking experience as much as the body.  There are still some lenses which I'd like ...

I struggle with discussion about color because there are so many choices to format photos the way YOU want them. You can format in camera with built in styles and image effects and by adjusting ...

I agree with your assessment that the market can't simply spiral upwards in price. There wont be enough buyers. However, I don't think smaller sensors will necessarily be the answer, or at least ...

I'd vote for the format to be totally open like micro 4/3.  Competition is best for the consumer, but perhaps not the companies.  If I had to choose just a few to join the format, it would be: Olym ...

I'm not an expert and don't have definitive info. I did open a thread in which a few people opined: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4317144 The 2 million phase detect pixels number is from ...

It appears that it is a substantial percentage of pixels. For the Fuji X-T3, it is 2 million out of 26 megapixels, so well over 7%.  I'm not sure how much of an impact that makes on the image, but ...

Happy GH5 user here. I was super excited about all the rumors, but now my enthusiasm has waned.  I expect the bodies to be $2k and $3k+.  I expect the initial lenses to be quite pricy, and there is ...

This might sound petty - but the front dial is in the wrong position. I don't like Nikon because the front dial location is uncomfortable for my index finger. I do like Canon and existing...

I dunno.  I don't really see the advantage to what you are describing.  Surely any mirrorless mount can have an adapter for DSLR lenses.  And any third party lens maker will try to sell the same ...

Soon there will be 4 companies fighting for the same market. All four would love to sell $2000 bodies and lenses. But that is a small part of the market. Always has been, and I think it always ...

Well, then it would be pretty close to the 75 f/1.8. Personally, I think the focal length 56 is just about perfect.  I'd be happy with anything from 50mm to perhaps 60.

I didn't write it here or anywhere, but I was wondering if Sigma would be closely involved. Sigma has consistently created their own cameras with Foveon sensors. They have always had VERY low ...

In the leaked pics, it looks quite a bit smaller than either f1.2 lens: https://www.43rumors.com/ft5-leaked-image-of-the-new-sigma-56mm-f-1-4-mft-lens/ And in previous rumor site postings, the ...

This is the lens I've waiting for. Because of the longer focal length, it actually should give you slightly more separation from the background than the Panasonic / Olympus 1.2 lenses. It also ...
