p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Is it bad that I've completely been out of the loop?


I've been using my 1DIV's and 5D3's for awhile. I've been hankering for buying a new lens, but haven't really looked. I had been considering the 35 1.4 from sigma, but haven't bought it and have also been thinking about the 24-70ii.

Well then it dawned on me in reading a few of these posts on FM, I haven't followed really ANYTHING that's come out or been going on...

and I don't think it's that bad of a thing either.

Not a bad thing Robert. I enjoy your input but really like your work. You don't need to follow anything when you are doing what some of us wish we had more time for. Unfortunately for me, I have to have another less enjoyable job to pay the bills.

Not a bad thing at all.

Canon and Nikon have not done much of anything significant recently. 2013 will go down as a weak year for the most part. In Canon land the 200-400 is finally shipping, but slowly.

Yup. I am aiming for 2020 or 2022 before I consider another Canon body.

PetKal still shoots pijuns, most recently with a 50/1.0.

Not alot going on in the DSLR world at the moment apparently, announcement after announcement meets with stunned indifference. New compact here, new video feature there, I'm afraid the heady days of exciting new releases seem to be long behind us now. Still the highlight of 2013 is that you can now buy legitimate center pinch lens caps!

Lets hope 2014 brings something exciting, or if exciting isn't possible, something sensibly priced.

Actually there was a huge announcement last week IMO. Nikon launches first ever dedicated UW camera with RAW and IL. Been wanting this for the last 3-4 years. I'll be buying this ASAP and it's maddening to see how long it's taken for a company to finally do this, but better late than never. I guess all the others will now rush to join the show and so they should. Might save the EOS-M from a life less ordinary.

It is only huge if it proves to be a great camera.

I'll toss in a vote for something sensibly priced.

We already know what the camera is like as it's based on the V3 and it's infinitely better than the P&S, tiny sensor jpg only crap that is currently on offer.

I wish I could be out of the loop like that.

If you just have to scratch the new lens itch, hard to beat the 40 2.8 at its price or even 5X its price. It doesn't have L-type color saturation, but closely approximable in PP.

Hop into the loop cheaply

You know that Canon makes an affordable underwater housing for the G1X. Great little camera in or out of the water. Just sayin'

Robert, we only stay in the loop here when we don't have anything real to do. Cheers.

...hmm, maybe Canon is drifting toward The Cloud and we will soon have to rent our "new" gears from then on.

Hmmm...so new bodies will be labeled with 'Канон' and I'd guess 'red' lettering instead of 'white'

Not interested in a housing approach , the Nikon is ready to shoot as is and I've already ruled out G1X for numerous other reasons. Nikon is a game changer and if it was Canon that had released this, this forum would be alight.
