July 23, 201114 yr The upcoming Canon EVIL may have the same sized senor. I guess they don't want EVIL to lower sales of traditional DSLR. I heard that somewhere as well. It makes sense, smaller the sensor, smaller the lenses can be and size/weight has been one of the big selling point for EVIL cameras. They could go with APS-C sensor, but as you said, that'll eat into the sales of their DSLR and they won't be able to make the lenses all that much smaller due to sensor size (see NEX series). And there's a snowball's chance in hell they'll get into Four Thirds/MFT system.
July 25, 201114 yr This is both awesome and hilarious. I don't know, I think he should've gone for the compact prime instead. I saw one mounted on a 5D2 at the photo show and it looked pretty funny.

July 25, 201114 yr you think thats expensive? check out the noctilux im sure theres more expensive glass out there but this is what i keep reading about again and again. http://www.calumetphoto.com/eng/product/leica_noctilux_m_50mm_f_0_95_asph_lens/lc50395?gdftrk=gdfV23423_a_7c1267_a_7c4147_a_7cLC50395 Edited July 25, 201114 yr by crappyjones123
July 25, 201114 yr Nice pics Jeff. Are those from Vail? Steamboat Springs actually. Some iPhone shots from today's 4-wheeler run to the peak. and one of my trusty Suunto after a filthy day on the mountain.
July 25, 201114 yr Author aerius is trolling. The compact prime is product meant for the motion picture industry, that they adapted to fit Canon (and Nikon) DSLRs. It sits somewhere between the novelty/collector's toy of a Noctilux (as ) and an esoteric professional tool. It's rated in transmission stops and marked in feet for a focus puller. It's main claim to fame is that it has full frame coverage, so it can be used to shoot video with a 5DII. TBH, that is its intended market: professional production companies who are shooting a scene (or a feature) with the 5DII.
July 25, 201114 yr Thanks for the clarification. I can imagine most hobbyists aren't really buying those lenses like pretzels (or churros, as we say here), though it's interesting knowing the perfection and features of the lens. Really impressive.
July 25, 201114 yr The compact prime is product meant for the motion picture industry, that they adapted to fit Canon (and Nikon) DSLRs. They even have a version for micro 4/3 cameras, I'm waiting for someone to stick one on a GF3.
July 27, 201114 yr Why the hell can't I ever see YouTube links or embedded images on tapatalk. Starting to piss me off.
July 27, 201114 yr I've (along with few others here) pretty much stopped using tapatalk once HC moved to the current forum software. Too buggy/unpredictable and mobile theme for the site is not too shabby. Edited July 27, 201114 yr by Salt Peanuts
July 27, 201114 yr Some shots from a cloudy day at Dinosaur National Monument. I thought this guy looked like a monkey/ and this guy a turtle.
July 27, 201114 yr I'm resisting posting too many of these. Why stop? These are two very interesting cameras lately, X100 vs M9 Edited July 27, 201114 yr by Cankin
