Originally posted by farhagh As a side note, it's interesting how many Sony cameras exist in the final lists. If we don't believe it a Sony propaganda, that means Sony is a much more serious player each year.
That is right. Sony advances faster than any other player in his industry. While Canon was riding one 6D, Sony has introduced several mirrorless FF cameras in the same lifespan of that 6D. People may hate Sony for whatever reason, but one day they will make many things right in one or two products, and that will be a very bad day for their competitors.

There is no point in rant; A7II is the FF camera, and the price was right. K3 is not an FF. A7II records images. It records videos too and can be called a camera. K-1 too is an FF camera. DPR gave options, for people to think about. It is fair.

* No, they couldn't. Because Pentax.
No, but because
K-1 is a DSLR. Although some DPR reviewers love using Pentax and cameras with pentaprism, (and that is true), Sony A7II is a mirrorless FF camera, carefully positioned by Sony to disrupt that FF segment with very good price. Ricoh Imaging too positioned K-1 to disrupt particular DSLR segment, with low price and compromised performance in some areas. So we can call it quits.
Both Sony and Ricoh Imaging cheated, also both delivered.
