Might give the Fuji's a run for the their money. Good price point too.

Got a circular from Calumet about it, instantly deleted but have looked at your link Rich, without a viewfinder, to me it's just a big point and shoot.

It needs to be full frame too to get the true effect I would like from that sort of camera.

Well DX is as good as anything else out there at the moment.

Yes I have been following the rumours about it.
It has no viewfinder then NBG!!
Cant abide these cameras where there are only TFTs on the back.

However it will have a great range of lenses both legacy ones and new ones that Canon produce.
Also the sensors is APS-C sized which is good.  Straight away it is better than a 4/3 or Nikon J1.   If they had provided a version of the camera that had the same sensor and a viewfinder like the Nikon V1 then it would have been so much better.

I notice in the advertising blurb that it is targeted at the P'n'S to more serious camera converters.

Canon is lagging behind in the mirrorless category. I have been playing with the Canon M and wow is it ever slow. I hope they really revamp it soon.

Oh, my goodness, I don't even remember this???

But I stand by the FX-DX comment. I always considered DX as a temporary expedient until the manufactures devised ways to make a full frame sensor at an affordable price.

Some people find DX (or even smaller) is fine but I have always felt that a larger format has got to be better.

I still hanker after medium format, but the digital sensors in MF are tiny by comparison with the old 120 film frame sizes. 60x45, 60x60 and 60x75. There is far more to this than just image definition. Working in MF or large format is a totally different world as I am sure many of you know.

I still miss my Bronica S2a 6x6 a lot, but not the costs of film of course!

Eric, have you had a look at the new Fuji XT2 specification?

I think that Fuji cameras are getting closer and closer to the AF speed of a D3. I need to check out the XT2 when I get one in my hands at end of Spetember.

Review here from a trusted source.
