Pentaxian Join Date: Apr 2011 Location: Brisbane. Australia | Just a wish, and some thoughts on what I hope should be,
Just a few thoughts I had, looking back through some of my old photomapgraphs,
I loved my MZ-5, never missed, wasn't the most advanced, wasn't the fastest, yet never missed a shot... Loved my *istD, was just like a film camera, only every photo was free, beautiful renders, focus, spot on, never was a problem, pics sharp, had a "certain, I don't know what" about them, nothing fancy, just a camera. I wish, for the FF that was promised to us then.
I was looking back though some of my old pics from the *istD tonight, I loved them, who cares they were but 6mp, all sharp, I never even thought of focus issues, I had come to terms that with my *istD I ran with -0-3 to -0-7 exp comp so I just set it at that and forgot, and just enjoyed photography, My K-7, was disappointing, don't get me wrong, nice, but somehow not the upgrade I thought it would be, yes, resolution better, but lacked something, and was hit and miss, I hadn't changed, lenses hadn't changed, but enjoyment was lacking, K-5 was a saving grace, brought back the magic, I love the camera, but even still, I miss something intangible about what I was simply awarded with by the *IstD.
So my wish, a FF *istD, just a photographers tool, simple, elegant, and able to deliver pleasure without compromise, no fancy video, or live view, I don't even care about SR, I don't want, "a completely different FF to any other manufacturer" No gimmicks, no never seen before in a FF offering, all that is unimportant, and will fade away, I just want a camera, bring back new versions of our old favourite lenses, sure, but a true camera, that lets me concentrate and what's important, showing others how I see the world.
No reply's necessary just mussing.
