Originally posted by Rondec That's fine. Ergonomics are very person specific. I wouldn't shoot for an extended period with a 70-200 f2.8 without a full sized SLR with grip, but that's just me (well and my wife too).
pro photographers will be shooting events that need flash with flash bracket hardware, that puts the light up off of the camera, allows for easy rotation from landscape to portrait with the flash remaining above the camera, etc.
in which case they will be supporting the rig by the bracket in their hand, not the grip on the camera body... mirrorless wins there because it'll be a lighter rig.

*i'm really starting to sound like a cynic..
lol, no, the actual sony mirrorless track record is nothing like that... for example, the a7rii was a huge step up in many ways from the a7r.
"warmed over" would apply to what pentax did with the k3ii vs. k3

Originally posted by normhead Hearsay, compared to anecdotal evidence... does either of them actually prove anything?
lets see, comments from someone with actual experience, as opposed to comments from people who have never owned a mirrorless camera and never even owned a ff digital camera?
please...
