Nikon to release a decent compact camera...but with a FIXED lens!!
In article , Mort wrote: RichA wrote: What a mistake. They will do ANYTHING to preserve the domain of the DSLR. Fixed lens compacts, no matter how they are specked out are one- step up from camera phones. http://nikonrumors.com/2013/02/18/ni...rocessor.aspx/ Hi, This brings back old memories. I have a Nikon 35 Ti film camera, with a fixed 35mm f 2.8 lens that was exceedingly sharp. The camera was built like an elegant army tank, and had retro needle pointer dials. The pictures that I took with it were quite sharp and free of visible aberrations. I used it as a pocket camera, when I could not bring my 14 pounds of Nikon F equipment along. Its only problem was its high price. Got one too, as well as the competitor from Minolta (TC). Unfortunately, film-based photography was already on the way out by that time. |
