I have four MILCs - I was an early adopter. So I have as many as I do DSLRs.
I think 'meh', after all these years. For people who haven't shot mirrorless a long time, there might be a novelty factor. The new girl in the office is getting their interest, but why is there an obligation to chase her?
Once curiosity's been satisfied, people can get a more balanced view of the phenomenon, and we've had people in this very forum return to DSLRs after buying MILCs or who like me, own both. They're not weird.
DSLRs are still the biggest selling camera type, and last quarter, DSLR sales were stable and mirrorless sales went down despite all the hype, and no one's been able to give me a satisfactory explanation why.
The other weekend I got to use someone's brand new A7R III and the Sony G Master 70-200 f2.8 with 'eye focus' (it's only eye focus when you get close enough, otherwise it's the same as Pentax's face focus). I was using *thousands* of dollars of kit. It was pleasant enough, but after half an hour I handed it back and finished the morning with my K-1.
The cost, size and weight savings of mirrorless are not what people think, especially when the lenses are included, which is the only way to think of these things. The same kind of bag will be needed, and it will feel much the same on your back. An XT3 or GH5 are big bodies, and more expensive than DSLRs.
The recent Oly m43 flagship is as heavy as the K-1, IIRC. I know, it doesn't match the propaganda. But we're seeing *massive* advertising and promotion - buying thumbs up from websites, publications and endorsements from professionals. The spending's not sustainable - Sony profits plunged 73 percent - but there's real desperation from the big camera companies as the market contracts, and Canon reckons it will halve again in the next two years.
Their disappointments are worth studying. The Z6 is arguably inferior to the D850 and the EOS R to the Canon 5D Mk IV they're based on, involved a new mount, and resulted in fewer sales, not more, for those companies. What lessons were meant to be learnt?
Ricoh have said they're following the trends and the first mirrorless Pentax may be Medium Format, Full Frame or APS-C, there are advantages and disadvantages, they haven't decided. A contracting market is not the time to release new products at all, but it will have to happen at some stage, it will be more a case of when the economics make sense for such a little division when the sky's falling on the industry as a whole.
