No, your X-T3 does _not_ do better FPS in RAW. When your X-T3 magically grows a 46MP Full-frame sensor and full-time electronic shutter without distortion problems, get back to us.

Massive income and wealth disparity in the USA, approaching and exceeding the infamous "gilded age", just before the Great Depression.

Anything will break with enough torque applied. The lens looks like a 400/2.8. If the camera was dropped with the lens attached and it hit concrete near the front of the lens, that's an awful lot...

In addition to using the standard excuse these days to raise prices ("Because pandemic/supply chain/dog ate my homework") this could be a move to shut down one or more unauthorized exporters,...

I notice that Viltrox brand owner Shenzhen Jueying Technology Co., Ltd. advertises that they welcome OEM and ODM business. So my guess is that Tokina's relationship is technically with them, not...
-
@madecov I think you may be confusing Hoya with Kenko. Kenko owns Tokina to this day and they also make filters like Hoya does. But Kenko also makes all sorts of other kinds of things (tripods,...

@D135ima Don't feel bad. I have little to no experience with the Adobe image management tools and when I installed and took a look at Darktable on my Mac, I thought the UI was one of the most...

@RolliPoli Just find an old Exakta like a 1000VX somewhere and take a look at the lens mounting and you'll understand what I mean. Or just look at the pictures on an eBay item or something. Among...

@RolliPolli If you look at an old Exakta body you'll see what I mean. That whole surface where the lens/camera linkages are on the RE mount cameras didn't exist. That part of the camera in fact...

Clearly they had saved cost/weight since as far as I could tell they were all like that. Probably using lightweight, low-tooth count, molded alloy transport gears. On the other end of the spectrum...

I think the Minolta X-1/XK/XM (depending on market) - which came a couple years after the Nikon F2 - was every bit as large as the Nikon. But you rarely saw them, I think they sold very few. My...

Yes, the Zuiko lenses were multicoated. Nonetheless, I also switched to Nikon partly because the Nikkors produced better images and were more mechanically robust. Another thing that got on my...

Let's see: - Lousy kit lens - Lousy rolling shutter - Lousy video crop - Lousy mobile app - Shorter continuous video shooting - Lousy ergonomics pErFECt cAMERa!!

Even smartphones have 1" sensors nowadays. That's a non-starter for an industry that's already been decimated by smartphone encroachment on their traditional territory.

LOL "photographers don't compare brands". These days *everyone* "compares brands" as if their entire sense of self-worth revolves around it. And people who think their "personal preferences must...
-
In fact it's *blatantly* misleading to claim "Nikon doesn't allow other lens makers to produce Z-mount lenses". The vast majority of ILC manufacturers have never gone out of their way to make it...

Haha, thanks for the correction, yep, 1/4000. Been a long time since I picked up my FE2. 😁

Re: the front shutter button - perhaps it wasn't useful for the semi-auto Exakta lenses. I just realized it's probably in totally the wrong position for the old Exakta lenses to press the shutter...

@Michiel953 The Topcon's were not "derived from Exaktas" at all. They simply used a (heavily modified) Exakta lens mount. Topcon was formed by the merger of a couple of Japanese (not German)...

@RolliPolli Part 3/3 For such reasons and the nice build quality of the Topcon flagship series, I was sorry to see the premature death of that product line. (I was not such a fan of the...
