[ News ] High end Panasonic m43 GFX1 rumour

[Oly5050]

See is one thing. Of course people will only put up the successful shots. You go and try for yourself and shoot with a 300 5.6 and see what you get.

(do any of the m43 lenses come with aperture control rings on the lens?)

Do the native m43 lenses count? Like Noktor? =D I'm just being lame, don't mind me, but to answer your question seriously, as far as I know, IIRC, none of the AF native m43 lenses have aperture control rings on the lens

Well, there's always the Cosina Voigtlander 25/0.95...

m43 rumours said the new GF1 successor will get a “tweaked” GH2 sensor. Wonder what it means ?

Also Panasonic is using two new names for the upcoming products, the GF7 and GX1

Latest news is that Sony has delayed all shipments as NEX 7 is manufactured in their Thai plant which has been submerged by the recent flood. There will be an additional 1-2 months delay..

What happens if the lens is targeted at the pro where performance and reliability is more important than price? After all the camera is a pro camera, not the usual consumer model.

Ironically, it is usually the hobbyists that will splurge on these things. The pros will be very concerned abt whether the costs can be justified.

At 1200mm, it can capture the brightest of moons.

Agreed. On a tripod.

 

[Oly5050]

Strange, I have seen great shots taken at 1200mm f5.6 (EOS1DMk3 + 600mmf4 + 1.4xTC) in dull light under shades.

Of course lar. Every lens u can def find some good shots taken by it. Depends on the subject and how it is used. Thats why i say to me its lousy bec it will not fit my requirements. I will not spend money on small aperture long zooms. U gen need a tripod and high iso to minimize camera shake.
