Helps me to view them as opinions rather than arguments. I don't think there's a win/lose debate here. One company stepped out and made a "full frame" mirrorless, fixed lens camera. Another company expressed a differing opinion re: "full frame" mirrorless cameras; as well as removable lenses. In the days of film I thoroughly enjoyed each and every format from 35 mm to 12x20 (never owned a Minox or half-frame - though did shoot 16mm Bolex and Bell and Howell). I feel privileged to have been able to own and explore all those possibilities. I WISH that I could afford to own and seriously explore each digital sensor size available (including the amazing video possibilities with companies like Red and the new Arri's). Alas - I cannot. So I muddle along with 5 year old technology which continues to produce superb image files (one FF, two 1.3 - fantasizing about the day I own a medium format back - that will never be FF 6x6) Regards, George Lottermoser george at imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist
