A (very expensive) solution looking for a problem?

In continuous live view shooting you get a live preview between shots, rather than, presumably, just the first preview before you held the shutter button down.

Edgar_in_Indy - Its shortcomings as in using a lens that doesn't cover the sensor. You know, the whole point of my post!

vadims - that's one way of looking at it, but usually with smaller sensor...

"features 17MP multi-aspect sensor" Isn't that a normal sensor that you can crop?...like any other sensor?

Or have I missed something?

Edit: Sorry, just re-read the spec & it's actually a 22mp...

@MaxISO
My first comment wasn't so much to do with phones, more the difference between APS-C, full frame & medium format, but if you add phones to the equation, you need to know how much the phone...

@Bobthearch
You're comparing the cost of a camera to a phone+camera, which gives you a lot more than the ability to take photos. Compare like for like & the costs don't come close, i.e. a very...

Interesting...I went from full frame to Fuji for exactly the same reasons. Never looked back.

I agree mostly, but you get to a point where the improvement/cost ratio means bigger isn't always worth it.

I'm not sure the resolution of a full frame lens is as high as that required for a smaller format lens, so you don't necessarily keep the same quality.

I wouldn't call it a flaw, rather a property of optical lens systems. Nothing in physics is a flaw.

I agree, too abstract for my taste.

@ Gavin Wade, what is sad is thinking it's sad that someone can't find more wrong with a camera!

Fair point, missed that.

I only see disadvantages with this...
*Makes any camera less stable on a tripod.
*Prevents the use of an L bracket
*If used in the hotshoe, it needs to be removed to use a flash or spirit level &...
