How is this e-model worse than the S1R II proper? Man I hope it's more a sigma fp-l vs Leica SL3 interpretation :)

The Sigma FP and FP L are both smaller than the S9, but they have some quirks. No IBIS is a big one. Bad autofocus is another. I love my FP L, but it’s a very “special” little camera. Everyone saying there are no other options, need to google.

the a7cr is the direct higher end version of the a7cii, buy for most people the sensor is probably overkill and the rest is the same. so for you a7cii might just be the best option. the canon r8 is cheaper, slightly lighter and arguably more ergonomic, they are pretty similar but the a7cii has ibis

Not a lumix body but the Sigma FP and Sigma FPL are l-mount and smaller. They have a lot of drawbacks but yeah just putting it on your radar if you didn’t already know about them!

I’ve been chasing this camera for years. I’ve had the xa1, xm5, x100 (1, 2, 3 and 5), MFT, Sony Nex options etc etc etc. One thing I’ve found is there are always compromises. Small lenses aren’t as good as big lenses. So yes Sonys 20 and 16 are soft. But they fit in your pocket. You have to choose o

Hi Former FP & FP L owner here. I've also owned a xt 3. I really like the FP & the FP L. It is very compact and very dense. It is one of the smallest full frame bodies I've come across and when paired with the sigma I series lenses makes for a very portable unit. If you like megapixels the FP L with

i feel you on wanting something truly pocketable. the original bmpcc is small but still kinda chunky for a jacket pocket honestly. for actual pocketable size with log, check the sony zv-e10 - it has s-log and fits in large pockets. the canon g7x iii also shoots canon log and disappears in a jacket.

I liked S1/S1R form factor. Heavier but good grip and felt like tanks. Newer bodies feel like toys compared to them. I now have a Z8 and it feels quite close to S1 bodies - bigger and heavier. I prefer larger over smaller. They seem to balance better with larger lenses. At one point I also had Sigma

I would go with the Sony A7c; it's not as "film-camera-like" as Fuji but it's very small and full-frame, and almost every kind of lens can be adapted to it. I used Minolta lenses on my Sony cameras for years. The Fuji cameras are APS-C, which means your lenses will have a narrower angle of view. The

I use the fp L with the Sigma 14mm f/1.4 for astrophotography and it is an amazing combo. This is a stack I captured last August https://www.reddit.com/r/astrophotography/comments/1qqkcf3 However, as much as I love the fp, you might be better off getting a newer camera. It’s not bad by any measure,
