Have to agree about long lens work on APS cameras. That was quite a bonus. It's the same for cinema cameras where Super35 is about the same size as APS-C.

The reason formats like Super 35 and Super 16 survive is because they have quality lenses to support them. Even today the entirety of films like the Hurt Locker were shot on Super 16 film. As it stands the most dedicated lens deprived format is APSC.Have to agree about long lens work on APS cameras. That was quite a bonus.

This observation caught my eye as seeming at odds with whatBut here is my problem. I think time and technology have caught up with the format. When a new Panasonic GH-3 and OMD-E5 are close to the same price (or in the case of the GH-3 exactly the same price) as APS-C offerings from Nikon and Canon, I have to question the future of these cameras.
Ha ha... cute
HI KitAfter a great deal of experimenting, quite a bit of money, and a great deal of time and comparing like many of us here I have settled on a pair of NEX 6 bodies.
Gary, I thought the EM-5 with its 5 axis gyro is the latest and the greatest, no?Then why do I have this urge to follow the crowd and jump on the latest and greatest digital bandwagon?

HI GaryFirst things first: I haven't read all of the posts on this thread.
That said...many of my friends have abandoned m4/3rds for Sony NEX and then Fuji (mostly X-E1).
Gary, I thought you were saving up for a Pentax 645D? (The Macro 4/3rds)I am not going to blow a lot of money on a new system when I'm quite happy with the m4/3rds system I have now.
Gary
LOL...yes, I did say that, didn't I? A Pentax 645D purchase is on the back burner for now.Gary, I thought you were saving up for a Pentax 645D? (The Macro 4/3rds)
