    • Same here, if it did raw I would give it a second look. But it's really just a fun toy for rich teenage girls to match their outfits  or for their rich parents wanting a stocking stuffer for the kids knowing that they'll play with it for a week, then drop it on the floor, the maid will clean it up and put it in the storage room. If I wanted a cute retro style camera that saved to JPEG I'd just go to a thrift store and get a 20 year old camera. But you know, it's cute, it has retro styling (so a fashion accessory), it's easy to work, the vertical format, supposedly a retro reference to half-frame film is really just the framing for smart phones.
    • Looks cool. I'm still a little confused about how it attaches to the lens, and if it's compatible with other matte boxes and filtration, or whether it integrates into a proprietary matte box system. I'd like to see something similar that fits into a 4x4 or 4x5.65 slot, like the prototype that LC-Tec made a while ago https://www.newsshooter.com/2025/09/14/kippertie-lc-tec-electronic-variable-nd-electronic-diffusion-solutions-at-ibc-2025/ (From the interviews with LC-Tec earlier this year, it sounds like they manufacture the LCDs for many companies, including metabones and kippertie, and I wouldn't be surprised if they also manufacture for this Benro product although I have no source on that) No polarization, but not necessarily better color accuracy or anything. Quality can vary. Yeah I've thought about the same thing, and with that sort of tool you could have arbitrary shapes instead of a straight split. I imagine the cost goes up considerably when it gets fancy.
    • Map Camera are pretty transparent with what's selling well - though what's selling in Japan might not be as big in other markets. https://news.mapcamera.com/maptimes/2025年11月-新品・中古デジタルカメラ人気ランキング/ Their top 10 lists for new and used cameras are quite a bit more varied than lensrentals' list.  Even the much-maligned X-Half makes it to the top 10 list for used!  
    • I’ve never cared for either of them as ‘personalities’ and their market has pretty much always been the low-mid consumer so without being (too) snobby, not where I’d go for opinion anyway, but… The Fuji seems a fun little thing but probably overpriced and will end up being a lot less on the used market next year because it IS going to be an alternative to a phone and for most, the phone is going to win that one. As much as I like Sigma, that one is just a little too limited and compromised for me. Sorry Sigma, but I would rather have seen a 3rd gen FP. The FX2 I like and was a strong contender for me for hybrid use, but against the S1RII, simply lost out in a few key areas (but not lenses where it wins and wins comfortably). I think I’d still pick it over the new V though, despite that not being as terrible as some YouTube hype would have you believe. It’s a really solid piece of kit, but just perhaps not great appeal to more video-centric folk and a little over-priced.
    • I wonder how it compares with sales? I imagine Sony & Canon still top that but wonder how Nikon & Panasonic sales have done over the same period…
