Because big lenses are cool and $$$ so people want them. I would love some more compact lenses but there doesn't seem to be a lot of others who would. Seriously how many people would be excited by...

Being smaller than a Sigma Art lens is not really a compliment. Especially one with an adapter and one that wasn’t designed for that mount/flange distance.

Looks cool. But at double the length, 5x the weight, 10x the price, and probably not much of a performance gain, I will happily stick with 50mm 1.8. Especially for a gallery full of daylight...

Its a bit of shame that a brands like Canikon are constantly expected to evolve to no perceivable end. Canon and Nikon have been making great, functional cameras for a while now, why should they...

Slide 3 may be the largest aperture ring in existence.

The thing I’m taking away from this: mirrorless still has some catching up to do. I don’t consider features features if it just inches closer to SLR speed and responsiveness. All the other...

@ Dragonrider: Yeesh... am I a dinosaur for caring much more about portability than 4K? Or for wondering why any photographer would consider 4K a general use feature... I would think that THAT...

“Physics determines the size of these cameras.”

Of course. But there are design choices that can benefit portability, none of which seem to have played out in any of the recent full frame...

Now that we have a few choices one the mirrorless world, (all large): can someone please make a full frame camera that really prioritizes portability?

Something without a big grip and huge lenses....

Funny, I just updated my 2008 MacBook Pro to the latest operating system, a move I've been dreading for years. Of course its fine and probably runs a bit smoother.

But still, its a pain to have to...

Whats all this hubbub about brand bias? Why would you want an unbiased review? Why not just read spec sheets and play with a camera if you want an unbiased comparison.

People are excited about...

Why would you shoot wide open and complain the DOF is too shallow when you can just stop down?

If you think these lenses are big:

I think it was an early promise of mirrorless that the lenses would be smaller, but it never really panned out that way given the need for telecentric designs....

2/2

Also, when you add flange distance + the length of the lens together for both mirrorless and SLR lenses/mount, they end up being just about the same for many lenses. (The Nikon Z 50 1.8 length...

Does anyone besides Sony users care about Eye AF?

Woops meant little zoom...

That was the supposed logic... but the need for telecentric lenses has meant that a lot of mirrorless lenses (particularly wides) have ended up being long and skinny. If you look at a lot of the...

Is there any brand that makes sub $1k metal AF lenses?

Love the little prime... I feel like the only one in the world who likes small lenses nowadays. Some pancake primes now, please?
