There is a small queue ahead you for itIf you do decide to sell it I'd be interested

Great shot.
TBH I genuinely can't afford it, plus I'd need to upgrade my computer before I consider another high mp cameraLook we've been through this before.... It's only a matter of time before you cave in. Why not skip all that heartache and just order one now so you can enjoy it ASAP.

I think I mentioned it before but I think the amount of mp it's trying to process has more of an impact that the actual file size as I couldn't tell much difference between uncompressed raw and those converted to .DNG where the files are around half the size of uncompressed.TBH I need to upgrade my computer too but current one is manageable.
I am waiting for the new Mac mini so it gives me some time to build up my funds....
I think part of the "issue" is you shooting uncompressed RAW most of the time. I have noticed it is slower.
Even the lossless compressed RAW from A1 is slightly slower but not as bad as uncompressed RAW.
It is a lot of fun but does take a bit of looking after ,we put it in 30 years ago the gas heater costs quite a lot but 5 years ago i put over half a mile of 20mm water pipe on the garage roof and run it through a pump so it comes out the pool through the coils of pipe and back in the pool so to heat it up now costs 10p an hour -this only works when the sun is out but i can get it to 80fNice, I'd love a pool
Did you get one yet Trevor?
I keep looking at that and the 35mm f1.4 but I do think they'd be uncomfortably big for me as I like more compact stuff.
Just placed my order.
Are you leaving us?I need to stop watching videos about the R5 & R6 :banghead:
Are you leaving us?
I guess it does make a lot of sense for since you adapt some EF glass.
Having now had it I couldn't live without blackout free shootingI keep getting tempted but no need really, just got itchy feet.
*I liked it better when Canon's mirrorless cameras were pish , the R5 & R6 look so good.
Congrats!
Look forward to seeing some pictures

Thanks. Just ordered a variable ND filter. I’d imagine my R4 shutter at 1/8000 wouldn’t be quick enough with the lens wide open on a sunny day.
And DON’T mention A1..
I don't need to, its already in your head. its only a matter of time
by A1 can do 1/32000.... just saying....

I've been over that many times on bright sunny days at f1.4. Just last weekend I used 1/32000 for the first time and I still wasn't at ISO 100.
its nice having 1/32000 but I still would have an ND filter. ND filters allow for greater creative flexibility with your fast lenses.
Plus shooting video at 1/32000 will look bad anyway.
I wouldn't buy an A1 for 1/32000 lol, I was simply pulling Trevor's leg
I’ve been finding having the ND mounted means I can quickly switch to video without over exposure. I don’t do it often. But it’s very handy when I’m shooting my favourite subjects. Motorcycles. If I see something special on approach I’ll switch to video to capture sight and sound. A new use for me of my stills camera.
now imagine doing all that in 8K or 4K 120p using the Sony's awesome cinetone profile
Thanks. Perhaps I’ll just stick with the ND
I was just thinking about the 28mm f1.8 G rumour. As there hasn't been any mention of it since I wonder if it was a hoax that teh rumor guy fell for. I guess only time will tell.

WEX have it in stock £949. Oops that’s the 20mm
I read those claims. It's a shame and a mystery I suppose why they haven't done a higher end 28mm than the sometimes criticised f2 as many corners of the internet are screaming for one, but this is the company that wont put a front dial on their RF style cameras despite the internet noise.
Having done a lot of work with Japanese companies what I can say is that in my humble opinion sheer bloody mindedness and a fear of losing face if changing direction are fair suspects here. If that's the case with front dials and this 28mm I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised Things could change if just one manager retires or gets moved. Sometimes it seems to be that simple, one person with an opinion who's unwilling to bend.
but as photo gear companies strive to stay alive in a shrinking market they may have to react more to capture sales
I wish Sony and Olympus would get together as Olympus have some great features. It would also be nice to have separate raw files that have the in camera adjustments on them too.Thats the whole issue, I know my mobile doesn't take great quality pics, the ease of which I can take a photo, apply a slight edit and post inside 5 mins is the reason why sales are down. At least Zeiss tried something different with their latest release, I worry that it will be seen as such a niche product, no-one will try to release a better version.
Id love Sony just to release a camera for photographers and forget the video side, native GPS, in camera focus stacking etc
