I had an RX100II years back and just never gelled with it. The IQ is fine and I didn't have a problem with DOF for the most part (just didn't expect much), but the AF was really poor in low light, ...

OK, I was going to just type 'oh, gross' and move on, but I'm giving this the benefit of the doubt and not writing you off as an aesthete preoccupied with fashion statements and little or no ...

Good grief, man. Can you not let people like what they like and not make it a measuring contest..? Selective pedantic chiding doesn't make for much of a credible 'argument' ... Nor does a strict ...

Check out the Samyang-Rokinon 45mm 1.8 and the Tamron 24mm 2.8. They're really great lenses, tiny (esp the 45mm), light and cheap. The close focus on the Tamron makes it a quasi macro-wide. Rokinon ...

I was engaging in the Lowest Form of Humor :)

My A7RII developed - but did not always have - quite marked upper-frame vignetting/shadow at shutter speeds within 1000fps (approximate and IIRC) of maximum. You could even make out darker streaks ...

I don't know about soon, but eventually. The COVID effect on supply lines and such (I can't find a PS4 controller under $90 right now) may have an impact.

This is fascinating. It's a whole new subset of holier-than-unwashed-fools elitism inside the Sony E FF community. Who would ever have thought 'dumping the hump' would give rise to such a 'we get ...

Nope. Not anyone 'versed in the art'. Try not to speak for everyone when expressing  your very individual preferences, especially when it comes to art, yeah? Probably not a good look. Subjectively, ...

You said 'cooler' and 'more artist than arsehole'... Pretty close, but then again a bit less than an inch seems to make all the 'arsehole' diff to some folks. Exactly. What makes a 'cool camera' is ...

.96in body height diff = a much smaller bag? An RX100 fits into a much smaller bag, too. Priorities, right?

Because that couple of centimeters of VF hump just screams ARSEHOLE... And is soooo uncooool.

LOL now OP's 'wording is suspect'..? Good grief. He said it was under warranty. That isn't really the point.

A timing belt snapping at 5000 miles, and having a high incidence of that for the make of car, would be very relevant to discussion and worth sharing each experience of same, IMO. I've had shutter ...

People then wonder why there aren't more people contributing photos, or new members joining up, or old members (like myself) sticking around. IMO this thread is a perfect example as to why that is.

This is a first world forum for people with first world problems. If it was a FB group about social injustice issues I'd agree with your first point, but it isn't. When folks complain that there ...

So people with early shutter failure on their $3000 camera can't say anything because of COVID..? There can be no room for discussing this issue or someone expressing frustration about it in a ...

Exactly. The dogpiling on this guy just because he's expressing valid frustration with his fairly recent purchase should be shocking, but sadly isn't. Too many use this group as a playground to ...

Take your own advice, maybe. That goes for the other victim-shaming trolls in this thread.

Nonsense. I've been using DPR for 12+ years and the response to someone with a failed fairly new camera body shouldn't be 'REAL PHOTOGRAPHERS WOULD HAVE A BACKUP'. Period, end of story. The elitism ...
