Saaaaaaad

There's a 28mm F/2 for $450. I would think that's close enough.

Look, i shoot m4/3 myself, but a 12/2 or a 12/1.4 on M4/3 is not equivalent to a 24/1.4 on full frame. It's not comparable. You're just making yourself look silly.

@J A C S: their strap systems are quite good, and they've developed a decent brand name as a result.

@kpaddler: That's an mistake as a result of DPreview listing the 500mm lens price from amazon (bottom of the article), but then actually linking it to the 50mm Z lens, which amazon lists at $596

@kreislauf That argument is insane. It could be applied to every technological advancement there is. You could say AF is the lazy alternative to MF (hyperbole, but it's the same logic). I can't...

Yeah, given the amount of video improvements they've added, I feel like this was a missed opportunity.

@A_Zandit: Firstly, if you like the Canon, you should absolutely buy it. You'll probably love it. But your analysis of specs is skewed at best.

Yes, the Canon mount is wider, and they've come out...

@Fly18: Sure, but that 50mm F1.2 is almost a 50% markup on the camera body.

The EOS-R is 23700 JPY, which converts to $2125 USD. The article notes the body is $2299 USD, which seems to be a...

Compatible with an adaptor. It wouldn't work any other way given the shorter flange distance.

Wow, those lens prices are quite high too. They seem like good lenses, but an underwhelming highly priced body, paired with high priced lenses don't seem like a great option to me.

It's not on just one blog. The source "nokishita camera" has been reliable, and there's also been a full spec sheet leaked, along with pictures of the lenses.

It's pretty close to confirmed at the...

@crazyryoga: I think Sony just gave Canon/Nikon fanboys a common enemy. That and people are just a lot more vocal about things on the internet nowadays, specially when there are so many reviews and...

The Canon vs Nikon war has been waging long before Sony started making cameras.

@Jylppy well, they've announced lenses with IS. I was hoping for IBIS as well, but they seem to be indicating going towards the lenses with IS route instead. Too bad some of the L lenses they...

Nikon's offering is less competitive than Canon's when it comes to lenses. Most people would rather an F1.2 with AF, than a manual F0.95. The F0.95 is also rumoured to be ridiculously expensive.

@Kandid: Doesn't matter what you consider the camera to be, what matters is what the competition is at the same price point. Right now, based on that factsheet, I don't feel the camera is...

Full spec sheet is out:

Colour me underwhelmed. Single SD Card, no mention of IBIS or eye detect. Same battery life as the...

I think that's a pretty fair assessment, though I think Sony will likely have closer to 30%. Canon/Nikon are bigger names, and people will trust those over Sony. Sony are still making good cameras,...

The 35mm F1.8 doesn't look very large. It's not a pancake, but it's certainly doesn't appear to be cumbersome going off the current pictures.
