The question is…with such a high price tag will they sell them in any meaningful numbers?
If you watch from minute 5 you will hear Mr. Kazuto Yamaki explain in a very deeply honest and funny way why Sigma is never going to quit from their DP camera business. Mr. Kazuto Yamaki is really a great person and manager!
Thanks Lensvid for sharing this.!
Fuji confirmed at Dpreview that the new GFX medium format camera will ship in Spring. They also said all lenses will outresolve future 100 Megapixel GFX sensor cameras.
The swiss site Digitech interviewed a Fuji manager and he said the camera will have 16bit RAW recording. But I am not sure if the info is correct. Maybe he did a mistake and the camera has 14bit RAW as reported by Fujirumors.
