I don't think I explained what I meant very well. Perspective depends entirely on the position of the photographer/camera/observer. It does not depend on the type of camera or the lens used. A ...

And who knew that the Irish Border "backstop" or "safety net" would be such a problem?

Focus shift and front/back focus are two different and unrelated problems. Focus shift is a problem of lens design; altering the aperture changes where the exact focus is. As above, some Zeiss and ...

A four-thirds sensor is about a quarter of the area of a full frame one; but sensors are three dimensional, so the mass of a ff one is likely to be more than four times. To get IBIS in a full frame...

True; I was thinking of the principle, not the particular market.

Leica have a full frame mirrorless camera, the SL. There are adaptors for almost every Leica lens ever made, and adaptors for lenses from other manufacturers. It has an excellent viewfinder. What...

There is one point missing from this demonstration; the viewing distance between the eyes and the final image or computer screen. This is usually reckoned to be about 20" for normal sized...
