Hall of Famer
Second trip to B&H today. Got more time to look around. Spent more time at the new desk.
People are super-friendly, and ready to talk gear. Had a great chat with an MF guy. He's shooting Fuji, of course
But I did ask about mirrorless. There was a couple next to me buying NEX. My mirrorless of choice is m43. I talked to several of the guys there. Most of them, if the were using mirrorless, were either NEX or Fuji. Meanwhile, I was scoping m43 lenses, wondering if it's an investment in the wrong direction.
Doesn't matter, I still bought an Oly 17/1.8. I tried out the NEX, RX1, Canon 135/2 on a 5Diii and then Oly 17 and 75. The 17 is like the ignored little lens. Focuses real close, and is quite small. I like it better than the Panny 20/1.7.
Any rate, just left me wondering about investing in m43. My second visit really left me feeling like NEX has marketing/brand momentum, even if the lenses aren't there.
