and say it warms up in our segment... just warms. you know yet nothing. but you will scream.
and i sold three my AIS lenses where was laying lot of moneys and which will be useless in single digit months later and bought 50 1.4G because it rocks
god, now i hope that somebody dont get heart attack because of me
Wow, Nikon MX, we\'ve heard that before.
Biggest problem I see is the current lenses. They aren\'t made for MF format use - too small, not a big enough image circle. Yes, a teleconverter (or wideconverter) could be used, but that begs the question, why would someone buy a MF camera and use a set-up that degrades resolution?
Or why would anyone buy a large MF camera body and basically use it in FX crop mode?
If Nikon does do it, they will need a host of new lenses to boot, so what\'s the difference if you shoot Nikon or not (kind of the premise of this thread)? You\'ll still have completely new lenses to buy, that, sure, via adapter will work with your existing equipment (of course, they\'d be half-again as big as their FX counterparts).
So, if you\'re hinting at MX, yeah, it would be cool, but not something every photographer would need or want.
you are forgetting important things. one is, that optical converter can be made so that it dont damage quality. As long as lens is weakest point, it cannot be worse. Nano coated madness for 1000Eur? still worth it. Maybe some light loss, but not neccessarily big problem.
There would sure be new lenses, maybe with switch between short and long distance to sensor (MX, FX+DX), why not.
