Even now it seems like the mirror less bodies are only just reaching parity. They’ll get there, but for now they come with a high price tag and real downsides, while the promised advantages are real but more modest than once thought.
An R5 plus RF 2.8 24-70 weighs just about the same as a 5D IV with the same in EF.
In-body stabilization was promised to bring 6+ stops, but for supertelephotos I hear it’s delivering around 1 stop.
- ericpauley 5y agoThis is likely a difference between claimed performance on unstabilized lenses and stabilized ones. One additional stop on an already-stabilized lens is quite impressive!
- ip26 5y agoIt’s the march of progress, and I’m glad for every stop I can get. The point is mirrorless is delivering incremental rather than revolutionary benefit. The result is that it’s a gradual succession as the weaknesses are shored up, instead of a game-changing rout.
