Nice camera, but I'm going to get a fuji gfx

But samsung has Erdogans support now!!! ?

Nikon 70-200 VR version 1. Creamy goodness!

That lens is extremely creamy, but the vignetting is very strong.

Get the new Nikon Z6

Most dual focus anamorphics can go 75mm

They should make a waterproof version  

A mockup with the 44x33sensor.

Eventually it's going to happen, but I don't think the first version will get it.

No posts about this at SAR, lololol

Well I do hope there is more than those 4 screws in the flange for those long lenses I am sure Nikon will want to make, or adapt.

The screws in a large mount actually will have to do less work than in a smaller one.

Who the hell Needs a f0.95 lens that is as big as a house, and weighs as much , and cost as much, when we have cameras that go to a Million ISO! That is just plain stupid, and yeah the AF, even MF ought to work keeping people in focus at the Aperture, yeah right.

That's not what a large mount is about.You don't need a big mount to make f0.95 lenses, that's only true for long register distances.

A big mount gives you stable support for larger lens weight, and you can make large optics close to the sensor that fix the problems digital sensors have with very low angle rays.

Time will tell.

The way I see it is that adapters suck, obviously nikon will make an adapter, maybe even with a motor for those nice old af-d lenses, but honestly, holy shit, this new camera looks so damn good, I wouldn't want to use "old crap" on it.

That fat mount is going to make for some really interesting optics, I really hope the shutter is very compact and doesn't has too much housing so they can get very close with the glass and make the best wideangle lenses we have seen until now.

Obviously Sony fan boys have their ass on fire, this camera looks like what most people in the dslr world have been waiting for, the emount looks like a child's penis in comparison.

Canon has to make a difficult choice, they have the "industry standart" EF mount, will they cannibalize it? 

IMHO, the adapter thing will be nice if you have lot 's of long lenses, but for anything under 80mm people will go for z mount lenses and dump their old stuff on ebay, great news for poor photographers

What a beast.

Huh? Cameras are designed to be held one handed on the right hand side - that is why they have a grip there (and the lens release should be there.)

Holding a camera on the short left hand side is uncomfortable because the left hand generally holds the lens 'which is convenient for taking the lens off and putting it on'

I know because I used to have an Olympus that had the lens release on the wrong side which was very stressful. In fact, I would often have to spend a day in bed after changing lenses, simply to recover.

It must be funny to see you changing lenses.

Robert get a life, lol. Are you left handed? Most people are right handed, why would those want to do the complicated part with the left hand? (plugging the lens into the lens mount).

No. I just use my ability to interpret BS. 

Funny considering your own title on this forum...

I like my nikon glass, but I mostly use a phase one. Funny, isn't it?

Fanboyism is nothing new,neither is forum narcissism.

Do you guys hold stock options at Sony? 

What I have noticed is that lenses with large front elements have less vignetting, so the dof is not only shallow in the center but also in the corners. (Compare shots in a classic 50 1.4, the corners will be as dark and dof won't change when stopping down to f2.8.

Nice post.

They can always make a digital vintage, a mirrorless df. A small grip is not really an option with larger lenses.

Buy both.

Mount vignetting happens with tele lenses

I have a good feeling about this system, with a very big mount they can make big lenses near the sensor that correct the light angle to be peroendicular to the sensor, resulting in tiny spectacular lenses. Please someone with actual optics knowledge correct me on this.

I need a cheap fluidhead that can handle a eos m with máx 70-200 lens and a nikon d800 with the same lens.

Ideally it would be cheap (150€  ), light and small.

I would like to be able to do precise movements. Years ago I bought a manfrotto 500 something and it would always ruin the shot if I let go of the handle.

I love the 50mm f2. I have the “K” version and an HC... unfortunately both have really dry focus rings. Is there a major difference between the O and the OC versions of the 35mm?

Honestly, I’m probably going to buy another 35mm 1.4... that lens is as cinematic as it gets, wide open with its nasty coma and distortion. Love it. 

I'm not shure, there are different revisions. My nikkor-o version has the 3D pop and the oilpainting bokeh. The only problem is blooming in highlights

28mm f2 and the 35 1.4 are some nikkors I should have, but I stopped putting money into small format.

The nikkor 50mm f2 ai is probably the best one, instant cinematic. Pairs pefectly with the nikkor-o 35 f2 PRE-ai. Both have very special bokeh,and smooth rendering.

The zeiss is the best in your list,very good lens, but too contrasty and nervous for my taste. This lens will sort of match with modern lenses.
