New Nikon FF Mirrorless?
Sony thinks so, but what do they know? They are just making sensors and
other components for Nikon and that stuff is really to get off the shelf with a weeks notice: https://nikonrumors.com/2018/03/13/sony-executive-predicts-that-nikon-will-release-a-new-full-frame-mirrorless-camera-in-the-next-12-months.aspx/ -- teleportation kills |

Well, like dog years? The thing is that if a MILC from Nikon is to hit the market within a year then it should more or less ready hardware vise now, with know components and Sony is Nikons pusher man. Sony would know... -- teleportation kills |

[] Sony, Nikon and Canon plan to concentrate (if the latter two ever get off their a--) on FF mirrorless to the exclusion of any other sensor size. Is there no one out there who objects to having to carry HULKING lenses to do the job lenses sometimes weighing 1/2 as much can do on a smaller-sensor camera? Are all shooters aging old geezers who think a semi-ridiculous 3:2 format that originated on silent film projectors in 1909 is cutting-edge? I voted with my feet for MFT as being a good enough quality for my purposes. No need for bulky and heavy any more. I'm happy with 4:3 aspect ratio, although others prefer 16:9. It's easy to switch in any case. -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |

You can crop to 4:3 in post if you like and get sharper corners. The fact is that most pro photography this day is taken in landscape formats and is then trimmed on the sides to that that the editor seem fit! The file is supposed to be good from side to side of course... The look of FF has way more sing than those of mFT, BTW. A used Sony a7ii hot glued a Sigma MC11 would make a nice FF mirrorless for Canon lenses, should Canon decide not to make one. https://www.sigmaphoto.com/mount-converter-mc-11 -- teleportation kills |

Sure, but the a7 is a rather compact camera. With a adapter it would be a good complement to my 1D2, that stays... The EOS M stays too since I can have it and three lenses in my messenger bag without even noticing it or in me coat pocket with an Fed OVF and the 22/2.0 as a compact. This Canon gear can be had for next to nothing on the used market, BTW... If not, soon you'll be scanning 8x10 negatives. I wish... -- teleportation kills |
