I'm ok with everything you've written except when it gets to the highlighted comment.  Can you add some specificity to this claim, or is it speculation on your part?

I came across this in the Adorama catalog ... https://www.adorama.com/goml150.html Haven't used it myself, so can't offer a useful opinion, but looks interesting.

Let's see how sad you are after a few days with the new lens. Btw, the 300/4 is another dynamite lens if you need something longer.

So two questions ... 1. Will that market ... high-end FF cameras in the E, F, L, R, Z mounts ... get substantially larger, small, or stay about the same for the next 5-10 years?  (I'm thinking ...

I think you've stated this perfectly, and agree about Panasonic's strategy.  But to take it a step further, I don't see how Panasonic can be successful by competing heads up with Sony, Canon, and ...

They wish. If they could control the market to the extent you suggest, then smartphone cameras would never have happened, and the point-and-shoot market would still exist. These companies are ...

Well said. I share your sentiment that a good share of the apparent enthusiasm for FF is misplaced. The imperative in almost every other area of technology is smaller, faster, cheaper.  The idea ...

Second this.  Got this a few weeks ago and couldn't be more pleased.  It's a no brainer.

Isn't that the Yi mFT camera?  Btw, Yi wouldn't report sales data to CIPA, so hard to know exactly what may be going on in that market.

)You would think. There was a time, years ago, when the Olympus forum was a blast. An unusual cast of characters from around the world trying to understand and make use of this unusual format. ...

My understanding is (1) inventorship goes to the person who conceived at least one specific claim (and therefore not transferable), and (2) filed first.  Prior art can invalidate a claim of ...

If that were true then we wouldn't need first to file laws.

Great point, and nice shots.  Brings back great memories of our kids when they were younger. If I may be so bold, can I offer a suggestion based on shooting innumerable youth games under similar ...

I'm taking a hard look at the Flashpoint version of the gear. They offer various 2 flash kits that look well suited to my needs.  There's also a round head speedlite.  Very rich system with lots ...

Peter, Thanks again for your helpful posts. I have wanted to learn how to better use lighting, and you're providing some excellent pointers. For what it's worth, I see that Adorama has a Godox ...

The other two divisions are scientific instruments (i.e, microscopes), and the medical division which is a market leader in endoscopes. 'scope' is the key word here.  Optics are key to all three ...

Wow .... sometimes one hits the motherlode when seeking advice.  Many thanks! Godox might fit me to a tee.  My typical, but not so frequent, use of flash is as a bounce flash on camera, or one or ...

Indeed.  One of my favorite film cameras was a Minolta XE-7.  Leica sold a version of this same camera as the R-3. The two models shared most components, but with different viewfinder setups. My ...

You're tossing out FUD without any real facts. Ever take a look at how much of an Apple iPhone is actually manufactured by Apple? Or how much of the Google Pixel is manufactured by Google? Do you ...

Huh? Olympus has outsourced lens design in the past ... the 75/1.8 being a great example.  There's nothing to conclude from this report (well, other than being used to generate more FUD, which is ...
