Well Sigma uses their Sigma MC-11 adapter to mate different lenses to different brands, so I would imagine they can ramp up pretty quick. But they are about the only one that does that I can think of. Jon ought to know more about that than I do! ? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1234034-REG/sigma_89e965_mc_11_mount_adapter_for.html?

I am not too sure about that. Have you ever looked at the back of a Sony FE FF lens?? It is scary different. I cleaned it once and the little plastic rectangle thingy poped off inside the lens!!! ? Fortunately I got it back on, but you can only clean the rear element when the damn lens is zoomed all the way out, and pins that plastic thing against the rear of the mount. I am talking in further than even that rippled, fuzzy looking thing. It pivots on some pins in there I guess? It is the same with my FE 28-70mm. Sony did not make it that way just for Shits and Giggles. ?

I don't really want to go back to the size of Canon FF lenses. I know the Sony ones are not small, but they are a lot smaller than the EF stuff I can tell you that. Sony has done a hell of a job with this mirrorless stuff, like them or not. They have changed the way we think of FF forever, even APSC. But I am glad to see Canon and Nikon coming into it. It is Only fair for their fans to have the option. There is No way I am going back to a DSLR unless I was big time back into Birding, which I was for awhile. But Man a Canon or Nikon birding rig is Scary ass big and heavy. When I switched to the Olympus EM1 I thought I died and went to heaven LoL. m4/3 IS the way to go today on birding, hands down. 20mp is way more than enough with how good Oly lenses are. Panny also. But I think when more and more people discover Mirrorless cameras they will be converts forever. I think that is one reason Fuji has come on so strong as of late. Hell they have Always had the camera color science from day one, even in their little P&S stuff. My little Fuji F20 I want thrown in my Casket LoL. I will take it down with the ship. ?

I would actually give Nikon a greater chance of having a better FF Mirrorless than Canon to be honest. Canon can sort of gimp around, I don't think Nikon has that option. And Nikon color science is pretty damn good to be honest. I like it better than Canon for a lot of stuff. Maybe not wedding photography but.. Plus, who doesn't like the underdog here.

Yeah but What makes Sony Sony is all the extra stuff in them that DSLR's don't have. Face, Eye lock, Clear Zoom, pretty damn good IBIS, full frame 4K sensor scanning, no FF crops, on and on. There is a reason the menus are so damn big, is that they have a ton of stuff in their products. Is Canon, Nikon going to get all of that right on their first try? I really doubt it. And that is what sets the Sony stuff apart. It is all the bells and whistles that make your life easier to shoot with. Are people going to give all that up to have a gimped ass Canon, and you know the hell it will be so. Is Nikon Video going to be ass kicking, you know it won't. I think you are giving Canon, Nikon Way too much credit for 2 company's that have dragged their feet for years. They are WAY behind Sony, crazy behind. And you think the new Sony A7s mk III is going to be a Canon M50? I would bet this new BM PK4 is going to be nearly a better camera than both of them other than AF, low light, and the low light will be good enough with a Speedbooster on it for the video part of it which we give a crap about. You really think this new Canon will have full pixel readout, no crop and DPAF 4K 60p in 10bit? Yeah, that will happen. It Ain't going to be a Canon C300 mk II for 4 grand. And it damn near will need to be one.?

Well that is the same gripe I had with buying keyboards, synthesizers for bands! Hell the guy that has a 20 year old Fender P Bass gets the same money someone that has 5 grand every other year or more tied up in keyboards that go out of style by the time You buy it! Lesson learned, be the Singer in the Band, or a Coffee Runner in Star Wars. ?

Yeah, "affordable", that is the magic word LoL. This is a pretty good idea if and when the price comes down. Being new you are going to pay the price as they say.

I am not too sure these "other" company's can just throw on a different Z mount on existing lenses they have. With as big as this mouth opening is on it I am not sure they can use the same lens formulas? People may be just stuck having to buy the original Nikon F mount and go that way for awhile with an adapter??

We are all going to have the same problem with Smartphone down the road. I think the folded optics thing is going to be the future on Phones, but it is not happening on ones that are 3mm thick! It Has to stop somewhere, and Apple with the no headphone jack, no SD card thing is pushing it Way too far too fast.

Oh I like the output a lot. But it would have helped with the noise some also. But it takes a long time to learn a new camera, and even then if you change to some other completely different shooting agenda then it is new territory all over. No easy way to do anything shooting, unless it is the same O same O thing every time.

If you don't ETTR I am sure that would be the result. No surprise there. Probably gain 1 stop, 1 1/2 stops pushing it +1 to the right. Suppose to be a 15 stop camera, but in reality, like most all cameras are, they are 1 to 2 stops lower in real life use.

This chart is even crazier for how many different codecs, wrappers there are. I don't see how any NLE can do all of it. Jesus. http://documents.blackmagicdesign.com/DaVinciResolve/20180426-942419/DaVinci_Resolve_15_Supported_Codec_List.pdf

The best part of that whole article is the Comment section on the Nikon Sensor stuff. And mostly from a person named ZR. Seems like a lot of all the senor stuff Ain't really as new as we think. Physics and all. https://www.imaging-resource.com/news/2018/07/17/pixels-for-geeks-a-peek-inside-nikons-super-secret-sensor-design-lab

I really don't think much of anything was rectified with the FS700 in the early years doing 4K LoL. This is not my idea of Engineering Excellence Design 101. ?

Buy it from B&H. A Lot of the stuff that claims to be "great" factory stuff is just some Chinese knock off, rip off on there. It happens all the time on Amazon. Buying Anything Apple related on Amazon is just Asking for trouble especially from someone that has a lot of sells on there. And then it is is hard to pay someone that only has just launched or has 1 sell. Amazon is great, but it is Always a risk. It is in reality a crap shoot. I have bought and sold a ton of stuff on there, and been screwed only twice for about 100 dollars. Amazon doesn't do shit to help you either. They think You are the one trying to rip off Amazon! And I am sure there are people that do rip them off. Amazon is a ruthless place for any help. There is a reason Jeff Bezos is so damn rich.

It pretty much means you can't use the cheap ones. Gee, imagine my surprise 5 dollars ones don't work. Just like my cheap ones didn't work for my Sony A7s firmware updates. If you want to go you have to pay. ? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1250777-REG/atomos_atom4k60c5_hdmi_type_a_male_to.html

From Ez Bz on Facebook about the PK4. "just got reply from B&H: "I checked this back order and, unfortunately, we are not expecting a delivery in our warehouse until October 1st " I guess we just wait and see:)".

I can see using that effect once and awhile. But if that is the average output at that aperture, nah I would have to look for another solution. You can Always use a filter to get that effect, but if you can't make it better looking, ehh I don't think so.That is the problem you are facing.

It's 10x the price. But yeah, if you have the money that is a damn great way to go.

Wow, reminds me of my old ENG days!

Be nice I am left handed, crippled from birth! ?

Thanks for letting me know to NEVER buy a Samyang/Rokinon 24mm T1.5 LoL. Yikes! ?
