KZ7 there’s a difference between being the best and being overpriced. Some people don’t know the difference...

So you’re paying $1k extra to go from T1.6 to T1.5 on the 50mm. You see how irrelevant that actually is? How if you’re running a business, that’s not a real advantage?

You see what I mean about...

If you’d be doing low light, wouldn’t you wanna check T-stop instead of f-stop?

KZ7 Would you buy the 85 1.2 for $2600 when you can get the canon 85 1.4 IS for $1300? Honestly, would you?

lawny13, so you're getting back to my comment. If the 85 1.2 was that good and worth the price, would people be interested in the cheaper 1.4 version from samyang? No, they would buy the 85 1.2 and...

KZ7, I didn't say that if you're not interested, don't comment. Quite the opposite.

And again, I don't think you understand... I don't have to stick to a specific brand. So I'm obviously...

lawny13 and KZ7, I don't think you guys understand how photography works. I'm a sony, mamiya, bronica, fuji, ricoh, nikon and canon user.

So for me that idea that if you have sony you can't look...

lawny13, don't you think this should've been a canon lens?
Did anyone complained when the EF 85 1.2 was updated as a 1.4 IS?

Why don't we have a decent 50mm EF? Why does canon decide to go with...

If the people bragging about those lenses actually bought them, canon RF system would be a best seller....

I still don't have many photos with this setup. Still fine tuning the focus with the 100 3.5. But I already shot with the 100 3.5 on my other instax setup and uploaded a few images to flickr. https ...

lawny13, to put it bluntly... People were bragging about f1.2 and f2.0 lenses that they were never interested in buying. As soon as there's a cheaper alternative, similar to what other brands...

KZ7, I think dpreview does a good job. The people commenting on the articles, not so much.

KZ7 we are on DPReview, a site that should help photographers choose what works best for the images they create. Not a site that should be a competition of who has the most expensive lens.

People...

KZ7 that's exactly what I find funny. Is that people praise something that they don't want.

KZ7, excellent example. McLarens are nice, but what most people want is a Toyota.

That's exactly why I think it's funny that everyone was so happy with canon producing McLarens when in reality...

lawny13 I'm applying those statements exactly because at the end of the day, they don't apply to almost anyone. But at the same time they were the key points for people being excited for the canon...

I just find it funny. Canon releases the 28-70 f2 and it's the "go to lens", it's a game changer and worth every penny. A few months after the 24-70 2.8 comes along and that's what people buy...

@Dave Oddie, I'm using a sony A7RIII with a 90mm macro.

I was using a V500 and wasn't happy at all. The scans were too soft. Tried it with the macro and there was much more detail.

You can dev color at home. There are C41dev kits that are easier than BW. With a modern camera and a macro lens, you can have high quality scans even from 35mm at home as well. I'm getting 42mp...

MohsinWadee, you can get a great MF film camera for less than a recent used APS. You can get great FF compact cameras with AF and 2.8 lenses for $50.

As you said, photography is photography. Film...
