From: Alfred Molon on 17 Apr 2010 06:33 Who would be interested in a camera with a large (FF or even bigger) sensor, with a high pixel count (let's say 24MP or more) and interchangeable lenses, but with a very compact body due to a mirrorless design? Would be great to have such a thing, but I suspect that the market for such a camera would be quite small, because pros usually like big and heavy. -- Alfred Molon ------------------------------ Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site

Not completely true: i like the canon 7D much moren than the 350D. Big is better in my hands, heavy is more stable. Rutger www.amons.net

If it's full-frame, wouldn't the lenses rather dominate the "very compact body"? Cheers, David

Maybe, but as long as the focal length is not too big or the zoom range limited, lenses should not be too big. -- Alfred Molon ------------------------------ Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |
