Originally posted by qtopplings I'm just presenting the other side. Which is, for most people (again, there has not been an overwhelming outcry about FF, not like the stain) this issue is not a deal breaker or even that big of a deal.
I consider myself part of the "Most people" group, and so, I can say without hesitation that the FF issue is definitely a a deal breaker in my case.
And though, I'm going with the hopes that the unit I ordered doesn't have this defect. I'd have no problems leaving it at the store if it does. I mean... think about it... why would we wait for a better low light APS-C camera only to find it can't perform in low light? That doesn't make much sense does it?
FTR. I am happy to have found threads about this issue prior to my own purchase. And though I'm not happy to hear about the K-5 issues. I am glad that I was able to learn about it beforehand.
So for me... I think it is better to inform than to suppress issues, even if that means seeing the same thread titles appear over and over again. Otherwise... those threads would get buried and lost in the mix. and the people who need it won't ever see them.
