@PaulSnowcat - Or an AF adapter to various mirrorless mounts. Full AF and in-camera corrections for the DA 15 on a Fuji? 77 Pixie dust on an A7R? There's at least one 3rd-3rd party K-Mount AF...

Is it an impressive new release? Not really.

Is it still a DSLR that punches up in terms of features for price? Probably.

DA Limited prime lenses are fantastic and really easy to find used pretty...

Reminds me that my FM has been repaired and I ought to go pick it up from the shop.

@Sordes - A sensor which is about 51x19 would have roughly the same diagonal distance and image circle as a 44x33, and a ~40x15 sensor would have about the same diagonal distance as FF. Would such...

I've said over and over: I'm ok with cropping to X-Pan aspect ratio, so long as you can see it in the EVF and on the screen, to ease composition.

The fact that Fuji doesn't put TX-1 ratio in their...

I hate to be another one of those "the lens!" folks, but...

...it's interesting to compare the R7 and R10, which use the same lens and the X-H2 and X-H2S which also use the same lens. The R7 shows...

@Nova Strict - I didn't suggest an 80mm, that's one Fuji makes (so a bit more than 120mm equivalent on APS-C). That's roughly a pretty classic telephoto length, but again it's big and not as much...

Macros around FF Equiv. 50mm have been around forever. With the fairly small size of this, plus the WR, it seems clear that it's intended as an everyday walk-around sort of lens, that lets you do...

Eh, that's one point of view. Personally, I think the swirls and cats eye's are half the point of a TTArtisan lens. I'm not saying it's for everyone, and no shame in preferring something else. It's...

Has anyone read or seen reviews of the lenses on cameras which aren't shooting Instax? Instax film doesn't have a tonne of resolution, and it'd be curious to know how good or bad the lenses are on...

@fluppeteer - Measuring my old TLRs, they're about 3 to 3.5" wide depending on nobs, about 4" long. I envision cube of a camera that's 3" wide on the top (wider with dials and stuff), 4" long,...

I mean, I know why not: you don't lose that much by cropping. An EVF can easily show only the square area, and going from 26 to 17 MP is probably still enough.

That said, the camera that lives in...

Nons has you covered. They offer "4 types of metal adapters for your Nikon F, M42, PK and CY lenses."

I dunno. I think wide angle makes sense here. For most macro, sure, the longer working distance of a standard or telephoto focal length can be more useful. However, the point of a probe lens isn't...

I kinda get it, tho. Lots of folks already have a lens with very similar specs (cheaper doesn't matter when you already own the other), and this doesn't offer anything new. Good for those who want...

MTF charts on this don't look too bad. Fuji has some on the specs page for their 27, and it's hard to compare since those are 15/45 instead of 10/30, but this seems to do solidly.

That said, I...

One of those things where I can see both sides.

The IBIS and IPX weather sealing on the OM cameras are great, they push computational photography further than most ILCs. They do this with a...

Seven months later, they just came out with an 18mm f/0.05. :)

I think if there were sufficient demand for these kinds of cameras, Canon and Nikon would be making them.

However, I do think Fujifilm specifically have dropped the ball. They still sell film, but...

This reminds me of something that I've been thinking for a while: it'd be neat for more "vintage" optics to show up. Consider if Canon, along side their budget RF 50mm f/1.8 and their L glass...
