Just realized the GR breaks the rules, sorry. Mods can delete. Thanks
Damn, what a shame, it is a cool image. I didn't realize some compact cameras would break the rules either. I personally think that camera is acceptable, I mean it's a fixed-lens compact, and I assumed the rule regarding sensors was to exclude ILCs.. but then again, the Q is allowed..
Mod(s), if you're out there, listening, do you think we could bend/change the rules to allow compacts even with larger sensors as long as they're compacts and non-ILCs?
I hate bringing up a debate to the contest, but this rule is excluding the Fuji X100/S, the Ricohs, the Canon Gs, and the Sony RX100 is in the tightrope.. I've seen the MX-1 outperform the X-20 for example, so perhaps we could makes the exceptions of small sensor but allow changing lenses for the Q, and fixed lens but large sensor for the GR/X100s/G15..
I don't know if these examples justify modifying the rules, but allowing more [compact] cameras means more participants in the contests.. and since I'm new here I really don't know how the rules came to be and there could be a reason beyond what I'm looking at. So, mods, can the fundamental rules be revised, please? [or does anyone know if I should post this in its own thread?]
