- PaulHoule 7y agoA7ii isn't quite pro grade but if you want to spend $1000 or so for a full frame camera Canon and Nikon don't come close. I got sick of the kit lens so I got a cheap used 50mm which can shoot tack sharp and I just unboxed a 90mms macro from the G series and will try it out today.
- DeathArrow 7y agoCamera aren't terribly expensive, but if you have 8 - 10 pro grade lenses which will cost on average $2000 to replace with E mount variants that might sound expensive. Particularly if you don't produce more money by switching to mirrorless and buying those lenses.
- _ph_ 7y agoYes, the existing lenses out in the field certainly kept Nikon and Canon in their position. Anyone with a large amount of lenses would stronly prefer to upgrade to a compatible camera. This is what makes their move to mirrorless so tricky. While adapters for the existing lenses exist and work, in the long term you would want to upgrade many of your lenses to their mirrorless counterpart. Especially, if most new lens designs are made for the mirrorless lines.
