Pros: Build quality, simplicity (but you have to know how to photograph), superlative image quality.
Cons: Cost, optical cost, the sensor, immense, not protected by anything, is dusty with extreme ease, to really appreciate it you have to print and print large, monitor .... it is not worth it.
Opinion: Purchased used (giving back historical pieces to film that now took only the dust), it is not a camera for everyone (not only for the economic aspect, used we are on the order of high-end FF cameras), it is not a camera comparable to the others, the "defects" that are attributed to it are present, but, in my opinion, they are not defects, it is not a stain on action! If you need speed, don't even look at it. If you do not need the speed is excellent, easy to use (you have to know how to photograph), it is easy to manage, it is a bit like returning to film .... with all the advantages of digital! Extraordinary files, colors, sharpness, contrast, dynamic range, you know the optical film bench, well, we are there. If the photo does not come, the fault lies with the photographer. For the "normal" photographic genres (landscape, portrait, travel photos, etc.) it is perfect, the speed is more than enough (I normally used Leica rangefinder without light meter, with external light meter, never had speed problems, just know how to do), and in addition it has the autofocus, for me it has become essential since presbyopia was added to myopia, the speed of the autofocus is sufficient for "normal" situations. Then it does not vibrate, micromosso absent, even in the hand, with appropriate times (there is no comparison with SLRs). If you love reflective and accurate photography it is wonderful, it really makes you return the pleasure of making (in the sense of building, it is nice to make the journey, not just get to the destination) photographs. If you can, it is absolutely recommended, just use it for what it is designed for, looking and, above all, printing the files you will be impressed and ....you will forget all the "inconveniences". Lucky that still are made cameras like that, even if the mobiles go .... great, but it's not the same, at least for me! |
