Superb.
Hopefully Nikon will follow...if not...I don't have any legacy glass and will gladly swap over to canon. So many plentiful EF lenses to choose from on the second hand market... Well done Canon... |

Well done Canon... Much as I respect Nikon, I suspect the 5D may be the turning point in the demise of the small-format sensor 35mm cameras. I remain keen on the 4/3 system as a lightweight alternative, although I've yet to see evidence of that coming to fruition. I suspect we will look back on small sensor DSLR 35mm cameras tomorrow much as we do 5.25 inch floppies today. I do hope Nikon/Sony have an answer! Cheers, David |

Cheers, David I don't think that this marks the end of small-format sensors in the consumer DSLR market. But, in the pro and semi-pro DSLR market I think that your are spot on in your prediction. The pros and advanced amateurs are going to gravitate back to the format with which they are familiar from their 35mm film days. Chuck |

Chuck Which leaves the small-format cameras as low-end cheap (?) and nasty (?) alternatives to the "proper" DSLRs. Perhaps the high-end ZLRs will then represent a better value, higher quality alternative in that price range? G Cheers, David |

You know the main objective for it's recreation is for small SLR players to band together to counter Canon and Nikon (and K-M/Sony). Do you want to shrink the sensor size and lens mnount of the 4/3 system further? Doing so would just wash away all the benefit of the SLR. The ZLR doesn't have higher quality but it's a compromise that many consumers have to live with, whether they like it or not. They are much better than those film P&S anyway. |
