the nikon d610 is $1900 at b&h

the d300s was about $1700.

what if nikon comes out with a full frame camera for
$1500?
or
less?

Than it would have less features...

obviously.

that didn't stop nikon from making a d3300 and d5300, which
have
fewer
features than a d610 or d7100.

Those are HF (half frame) cameras...

the d3300 has fewer features than a d5300 which has fewer
features
than
a d7100, all of which are crop sensor cameras.

one of the features that they all don't have over the d610 is
a
full
frame sensor.

Nope! They are half frame...

Actually the D610 is FF.

Off course. I thought you were referring to the Dxx00's. Those
are
half
frame, Canon x0D and xx0D and M are half frame too. Olympus and
Panasonic are quarter frame... I'm not sure of what the Nikon
One
is
but
Mini. ;-p


I tested one. IMHO it is a POS.

It most certainly must be most limited compered to what you
usually
use.
OTOH, surely it can be useful if you are aware of it's
limitations.
I
still like my Ixuses... ;-)

One of my frinds go the Leica Dlux and really likes it.

That's a PanaLeica right? The Panasonic variant is usually a few
cent's
cheaper... If someones interested.


I doubt it

That's

the same camera as the Panasonic DHC-LX7

Nope.

There are a lot of similarities, but they are two different cameras.

Read the specs and state which spec is different in each. You are paying
a
hefty price for a little red nameplate.

They are only superficially different cameras due to physical
appearance.
Under the skin they are identical. The biggest difference is the $398
list
price difference for essentially the same performance.

Yes, superficially different. The only real differences are the red dot
and, as Android pointed out, different firmware yielding a different RAW
format.



More importantly, I was going to text you this evening. We had dinner at
the Cooperage Inn, and were thinking of Snowflake. My wife is not allowed
sugar or anything dairy, and I really didn't need it.

We had a cute young waitress. I asked for a female lobster and she made
the mistake of asking how you tell the difference. I told her she was old
enough to know the difference between a male and a female. Wow! did she
ever blush.

My wife and I like the Cooperage Inn, it's a nice place. And I do like
lobster, it's the only seafood I eat. Topping it off with a visit to
Snowflakes makes for a great night.
