obsolescence

Certainly a better value IMO. Use the money saved on lenses for lighting, grip, transportation, computer, printing, etc.

And no dark slide :)

They use the terms "for promotional reasons" and "distribute" and "redistribute" and "fully or partially" which are not defined in the T&C. Whenever I see such terms in a competition, I wonder...

This is extraordinary technology, but it depends on having your eye at the camera. I imagine an external viewfinder in the form of lightweight goggles or a monocular viewer connected to the camera...

This could be considered a collector's camera which likely will maintain its value or increase in value if kept in a locked case. Or else, a piece of jewelry for rich people. They should design a...

My hat is off to him for his commendable work and advocacy that have benefited UAS pilots as well as the industry.

What a wonderful treat! Thank you for a lovely travel album, Mr. Butler.

Billingham -- yeah, nice.

Canvas has a 'feel' that appeals to me. My Billingham shoulder bag is beautifully made, too. Both brands are very durable.

WHY no L-Mount for Magic Shift Converter? If Laowa can make L-Mount lenses, why not on the shift converter??? I have asked for this over and over and over. So we could use the 12mm Zero-D as a 17mm...

"Let sleeping dogs lie" is my title entry :)

Re: detail, would interpolation have made any difference in the large print comparisons (upsampling as opposed to lowered ppi)? Some of the current algorithms for upsampling are pretty amazing.

In that genre, Adams's skill with an 8x10" film view camera and premium lenses combined with his absolute precision in the darkroom probably produced higher IQ than what most of us could do with...

Why limit yourself to 4:3 lenses from Oly/Pana? MFT lenses are excellent and the Pana Lumix 20mm f/1.7 pancake is prized. The Olympus M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 is excellent. If you're looking for a cheap ...

@Floodblue -- Have you experienced extreme deterioration of synthetic rubber objects (e.g. lens grip rings, coiled flash cables, bike handlebar grips) as I have? I don't mean wear, but an...

Among other concerns mentioned here, I wonder if the silicone material would turn to sticky "goo" in a place like L.A. where it would be attacked by ozone pollution. I've had many synthetic rubber...

Sure it is useful. I don't use 28mm as much as 24mm or 20mm equiv, but it has its place esp for detail shots and the shift feature would enable precise composition. I'm using a Rokinon 10mm f/2.8...

The fact that many (perhaps all) of those DSLR lenses are adaptable to mirrorless cameras makes them attractive to even more consumers. IMO Laowa really needs to make a Magic Shift Adapter for...

I'm thinking this could work well as a 28mm equiv. shift lens for MFT when used with a Shift Adapter (or T-S Adapter). Perfect for interiors. The same goes for the 12mm Zero-D, however the focus...

Darkroom color chemicals can be far worse. I remember Cibachrome Bleach-Fix (for printing) – extremely acidic and smelled like a skunk.
