And there is No way this thing is not weather sealed. A sports camera Not sealed?

havent seen any referene about this camera being weather sealed, i think is a reasonably big selling point for ignoring it in any product description

No weather seal? this a big No-No for pros i guess.

It was a paid upgrade before so it's nothing new, sony charges 500dollar for a 4K upgrade on their x70. Panasonic has always released their camera's at a very competitive pricepoint and cheaper then the competition, also, not everyone needs or wants VLOG and for those who do it's 100 dollar which is peanuts.

What I think is unfair is the fact that GH4 users that already paid for VLOG need to pay again if they want it on GH5. Panasonic should at least  provide a reduced "upgrade" price.

Totally agree with your review if you talk with the professional photographer hat put on.

For an enthusiast like me the article has no point. I love tweaking my A7s footage and photos, once you practice you can get good results in no time and with a better DR than Canon's.

OT: i seriously dont get whats the deal with this grey-is-the-new-black look.

They added the flare purposefully, I think they should add the option to get these lenses without the flare coating on them.

You can't dislike flares. That's like saying you dislike the colour 'green'.

You just haven't seen the RIGHT flares.

Used the RIGHT WAY.

Sorry, i am saying that I dislike these flares.

oh, and I dislike the flares with all my heart :D

I guess these lenses, as you said, are strictly for rental purposes. Any enthusiast, like me, can live with the "workarounds", as you said, of getting a separate adapter and a single focus adapter instead of spending that amount of cash

Hi all. I am selling my beloved Iscorama 54 MC. 
It is in very good condition. Glass has no haze, particles or fungus inside. Cosmetically is in excellent shape. (You can see that from the pics) .
I include the original caps and box. 
I also include a 0.25 Nikkor achromat in 82mm that allows it to focus from 1.3m (4,27 ft) 
Here are some pics i took in a hurry. Feel free to ask for more details. 
Asking 2900 USD.
PS: if you are in Argentina, Brazil, Chile or Uruguay price will be lower.

Minolta Close-Up Lens No. 0. 55mm - diopter +1
 

 

 

Excellent quality. Good for small scopes.

Im sorry i forgot to give you an update on this. 

I bought one of these for around 80$ and i works! It makes the Isco 54 focus from 1.3m to 4m, which is great!

It also improves the sharpness a bit.

Who should buy this? doesnt seem a very appealing product to me.

id buy a kowa with rectilux

Storage device manufacturers / cloud space sellers rejoice,

Hi Ian, i read the pdf file and says

Focusing range: Infinity (°°)-13 ft (4m); 13 ft—7.5 ft (2.3m) with the close-up attachment lens  

Isnt it 0.5?

The camera market is getting smaller. This in part due to cell ptones and also because of people that are happy with their cameras from 3-5 years ago and don't see the point of getting a new one (i know many of these).

I think that's the logic behind Sony's strategy of putting a lot of new features in order to allure people that don't see the point of getting the 7d II instead of the 7d.

That's also why all of the manufacturers , not only canon, are thinking about diversifying. People wont change the camera 2 times in a year. not even once.

SOLD.

So basically you need to tape the lenses to infinity? maybe using some sort of mounting  clamp to place the rangefinder in front of the lens could fix the issue, i really dont like the idea of put tape on my lenses, but i do like this marvelous invention though....

+1 on that!

this could take the already wonderful bolex 8/19 1.5x to the stratosphere.

i wonder also if this can make delft vistascopes something usable...

lots of ideas coming to mi mind

In my ebay auction you can possibly get a better price.

Dear Canon, April Fools is in April.

Mmmm.. do you think these diopters will fit the baby? im not sure about what is its front diameter. Does anybody know?

​I emailed Alan on May 20 and he found one 82mm 0.25 achromatic a bit dusty. He didnt know he had it.

It was over my budget so i didnt continue, but maybe youre lucky and its still available,

I am selling a Tokina 0.4 in 300$. 

Heres the complete info
