That is true, with the ovf though it is the use of mirrors or pentaprism, the view converge/ magnification, and if there are overlays or what is viewed in the ovf layout. Last but not least the mirror mechanism the dampening force to prevent mirror shock, if they allow mirror lockup, mirror speed. Ovfs have their price cuts as well, luckily as a brand Pentax generally have been great across the line.

Was it the R or RP model? They use two different evfs. The evf on the RP is horrible, but the R model is much better and easier on the eyes.

It's funny how they want you to believe that there is no lag, especially for panning and shooting. I will say though, battery life is not as horrible with current generation of milc. I know what the cipa ratings state, in one camera I can get between 1000-2000 shots and the other easily between 600-1200. I'm not defending milc in a good amount of cases, but that doesn't sound like poor battery life, especially it's not spraying, running and gunning, and normal use much like a DSLR.

I don't think I'm doing anything special really. Just I turn off image review, and unless I'm ready to shoot I keep the camera turned off. Idk maybe Sony is different, but with Canon and Fuji there are no issues.

I mean for me anyways, I don't walk around with my camera up to my eye, but it's not like you need to be cheap with the battery usage to put it mildly... Haha. If you see something about to happen you can turn on the camera, wait, compose, etc much like a DSLR without having to worry about your battery running down. Newer systems are much more energy efficient. And evfs are nowhere close to ovf clear/crisp/lagfree, but they are getting closer.

I think the battery depends on camera and how the person sets it up. To the most part I don't have battery issues at all with my mirrorless cameras. For a general camera I'll get anywhere between 600-2000 shots on one battery. I don't spray my shots either.

I can see that. I can't answer to why anyone would buy an F lens, but buying an EF lens is a different story. Instead of a need for a filter housing on a wide lens, get the drop in filter adapter. if you aren't one to use a view finder because the camera stays on a tripod, why risk worrying about mirror shock, or having to worry about stray light through the viewfinder under certain conditions and exposures, certain cameras allow for a tilt evf. I think in general for every reason in favor of one, you can counter with a reason for the other.

I think at least here in the US the Panasonic started shipping a day or two ago, so I wouldn't imagine that there are many out there.
As far as FF goes for Canon and nikon, I think people aren't quite convinced. They are missing key features that their current bodies have, and at least for Canon is concerned the crop in video. It will be interesting to see where things go.
