1/3 ev is really negligible. Of course for pixel peeping hobbyist, any nano micron difference is a big deal

strange that now no one is complaining about 36mp noise performance . If Sony were the first to do a 36mp, i wonder how much more criticism we will hear

he probably glossed over the fact the the camera kit is 2.8 zoom.

He needs to clarify that not all ovfs are great, only the bright penta prism ovf makes the mark.

There are a number of pros with EVF that are not explored as well.

The digital imaging business in Sony is very small. Sony is bleeding in the TV sections which was its main bread and butter before the LCD race took off. The fact that it failed to do well and continuously command a premium it used to do in the CRT era hurt them badly. The fact [...]

Sony just announced worldwide retrenchment of 10,000 jobs.. Woot

Yup a pity , this site has alot of IP value in it. But anyway, give it a new site, I will continue to visit it everyday as well. Keep up the Good work Admin !

nope, the La-ea1 focus is the best as it is. This just improves the native AF on the 5n.

There is always the limitation of times and context when one talks about preferred equipment. The biggest innovator that creates the best value wins at the end of the day. Will it be Sony ? I am not sure, but Canon is definitely not filling up those shoes at the moment.

So you define pros as purely wedding photogs ? You only believe ordinary people taking pictures of their cats and everyday lives knows nuts about photography ? I think you live in the wrong era my friend. You can stay away from this site if you dont like what is being discussed here. This is [...]

I agree . We are spending too much time discussing gear and looking at 100% crops and not spending quality time making good photos.

I enjoy new technology, but lets not be overly consumed by them.

A77 uses the M batteries on A850/900 ……

So you want a mid to top notch camera at entry price ?
And if you think Canikon are cheap , I am not sure which part of the world you live in.

I doubt Admin would know that, no one has seen that camera yes. Even if anyone said yes to you, you would need to take it with a pinch if salt until the reviews are out.

If we keep waiting for the best camera, we will never set down to shoot any pictures …

You can truly maximise legacy M mount lenses with a digital FF sensor ?

The Leica M are manual lenses without AF motor/drive. Plus the lens design is different from the NEX/APSC lenses. If a FF NEX can take the E mount lenses and has marginal increase in lens size , that would be a winner in my opinion. of course , Lens quality shouldnt be compromised. Thats the [...]

FF NEX with same mount, but slightly bigger NEX lens, that also allows the current APSC NEX lens to be mounted. PLus backward compatibility with LA-EA2 adapter. Thats it ! The ultimate cam !

This shifting of strategy is creating alot of confusion. I think they just focus on one. To be a game changer, they should focus on their hybrid or getting a fullframe NEX out.

But for the OVFs purists, this would be good news to them.

If you think that Nikon , Canon, Sony , Samsung are hardcore rivals, you may have fallen for their trap.

There are tons of cross supplies dependencies among the manufacturers that is more complicated than just pure brands competing against each other.

This is all done for win-win corporations and collaborations.

Andrea, for some reason, there seems to be alot of hate posts in this forum lately. Alot of peeps are feeling threatened by the rumours you have been posting. Nevertheless, keep up the good work. Cheers

Admin did say they will come up with 3 versions of FF. 24mp is just one of them. There will be future models with the 36mp subsequently.
