> Are you guys looking at the same studio comparison I am?

"you guys" = FZ1000 owners?
They're looking at same.
But with their mind's eye.

RishiS or anyone,

Refreshing to see that from a reviewer!
My RX10 "wide" AF setting seems to often select furthest subject.
Is there way...

Can someone explain to the Engineering-Challenged:

why couldn't the zoom lever be electronic
& the zoom ring have been MANUAL???

Assumption: a manual zoom ring would go
from 24mm to 600mm within...

Question about #15 (back-focused flamingo):

a. was focus set to "wide" & automatically chose furthest flamingo?

with my RX10 &...

"zooming takes 4 sec"
