I shoot m43 and FF and I'm completely comfortable with the P900's performance, although I wouldn't buy one unless they added Raw shooting - perhaps a P950? BTW my first ever digital camera was a ...

See my first post above - I think if the P900 could use base ISO it would do very well vs the 100-400 on a subject that was within a 2000mm equiv FoV. Actually as it has a BSI sensor and the ...

I think he may have typo'd his post, as the subject says 100-400 and the 40-150 has no chance of competing with a P900 on subjects the P900 can fit inside it's FoV at maximum focal length (2000mm ...

If you look at my post above the P900's lens only needs to be less than 3x worse in overall resolution than the m43 lens to get equivalent performance at maximum reach, as the sensor areas used ...

(To recap: the question is whether, if you are shooting a subject that fits in a P900's frame when shot at 2000mm equiv, it would out-perform a m43 camera with the 100-400mm zoom shot at 400mm, ...

I have a Rode Videomic Pro, although I haven't tried it on my semi-retired 5DmkII. It has a selectable gain so you can boost the signal in the microphone and not need the less-good amplifiers in ...

The 30 minutes is an EU thing and some companies just do it in all regions. (If it can record more than 30 minutes it counts as a camcorder and attracts a higher import duty.) Panasonic have a ...

I think I had more fun using a Canon 10-22 on an APS body than with the 16-35 f4 on full-frame, so I'd consider one of those too. The IS on the 16-35 can be handy and it's a spectacularly sharp ...

They might have made it easier to read out pixels for phase-detect AF? I like read-out speed generally too.

As soon as I saw their last camera needed to be focused before taking re-focusable pictures I thought they were in difficult territory...

Not arguing, my memory didn't provide the middle digit plus I didn't see the announcement - thanks!

It was nice yesterday... I was out in London photographing a Little Owl I'd come across, despite having a totally inadequate lens... I was going to go back today with a longer lens (300mm, ...

While the 5Dsr (and s, although not having one I can comment less) doesn't have some useful video features, like earphone out, it has way cleaner video. You get more resolution and less ...

Revenant - I think the "new 16MP sensor" was a misunderstanding and it was the old one on a list people hadn't seen before. As far as I know Sony only have the old (GH3, E-M5) 16MP IMX159 sensor...

It's price-point, they want a cheaper camera for their range so they use a cheaper EVF. The shutter might be a limitation of the new mechanism. If you want the other stuff they will sell you a GX8.

The 12-32 is a kit lens option, you can you the body only (well, at least where I am) if you want a different lens.

The only new m43 sensor since the GH4's Panasonic one seems to be the Sony 20MP one, so I assume it's the same sensor as the GH4 (anything else wouldn't make sense).

The OP specifically asked about the distortion between the two lenses (at 24mm), hence my answer. DXO will fix distortion, but the stretching/shrinking involved will lower resolution. Lenstip has ...

I thought we were talking about the hi-res mode, which is eight frames, rather than bracketing? Is there an intermediate mode that just does a 16MP image with RGB per pixel (by sensor shifting) in ...

Only at low ISO, where it's usually enough for most people. At high ISO, which is more important as you can be down at 8 stops of DR or less, they have been competitive. http://www.photonstophotos. ...
