More DPReview gold, this time from senior member, no fumble, who starts out with the following:
“Come on. It has APSC sensor, no mirror mechanism, no dedicate AF sensor, should be cheaper to make than an equivalent DSLR such as 70D. I do understand the low sale volume impact on price, but feature and value wise, it is a rip-off.”
How many pages this thread become is anyone's guess. I'm throwing in for 8. My current favourite retort is from veteran member, Ray Sachs, who uses similar, though flawed logic in his reply:
“A Ferrari should be cheaper than an old pickup truck. No bed for hauling stiff, no automatic transmission, and the damn thing probably doesn’t even have a decent stereo...”
My initial thoughts about the Fujifilm X-T1 find it to be an incredible camera. I've been enjoying it for almost two weeks. Is it perfect? No. But it is the most competent non-Leica mirrorless camera I have ever fondled. Its superiority to the Sony A7r, in everything but resolution, is ridiculous.
