The D700 was it for me in a similar way. That camera that did everything I wanted it to to the best of its abilities with no hang ups or complaints... Even though I bought mine with over 125K...

I disagree… even when digitized. Film has a unique set of characteristics that digital cannot replicate. In many situations digital makes sense, but thats not to say film doesn’t have a place:

Can’t wait to see the comments calling on the death of the pro SLR. Can’t wait to see how many mirrorless cameras will NOT be in use at the next Olympics.

These cameras are for real pros, not the...

Wouldn't, say, a d850 be a better choice for nature photographers?

Some are much better than others. The Nikon Zs and the Panasonic SL's are rather nice.

A bad EVF, however, feels like a crappy tv pressed to your eye. Totally unpleasant and does account for much...

This is what happens when half the cameras out today are labelled "professional". People assume because their $150 point and and shoot has the word pro in the name that anything more advanced must...

Photography? Cameras? I'm lost here...

I don’t blame the features, I blame poor implementation of them.

Nikon seems to have this down IMO. The menus are not endless, always seems offer what I want, and there are custom features for the...

How much larger is this than the XT-3? Looks like the controls and whatnot are pretty similar in size.

Also, why couldn't the X-Pro3 have a screen like this? Would've made a lot more sense IMO...

None of the modern flat front camera are particularly comfortable IMO.

I had one of the Fuji XE series and, while I love the camera I ended up selling it because it was not really comfortable for...

What denotes what is a G lens and what isn’t?

Within Sony’s lens lineup we have the regular Sony, regular Zeiss, Batis, Loxia, G, and G Master lenses. I’ll be dammed if I can tell them apart...

Even as a Nikon fan, who will love just about anything they do, I don’t quite see how how this is a mirrorless/SLR crossover. It seems likes an SLR with well executed live view and video...

"Or is it that DSLR cameras are being built by raiding the parts bin?"

If this is true then mirrorless camera updates are nothing but big ol' firmware updates.

From someone who doesn’t mind slow lenses and even wishes there were a few more reasonably-sized slow lenses than massive fast lenses on the market: This is one sloooow lens.

When did it become the accepted norm that evert photographer wants the largest aperture possible?

Price of a lens has never gone by its 35mm aperture equivalent...

Its an interesting thought… its true that photographers shoot stopped down pretty often and we often have fast primes to cover a few of our favorite focal lengths. I for one would love a small,...

How did photography forums turn into this sort of talk? Remember when it was considered an art form?

I think the same thing about pretty much every fast lens for sub full frame systems.

You can get a used full frame body and 50mm 1.8 for the price of the 50mm 1.2 Oly alone. Weight of the system...

I could be speaking from an older model with old firmware, but AF did indeed suffer when I used AF-ON in manual mode. It was pretty noticeable, it hunted much more and the motor even made a...
