1. When will the digi-crew realise that 35mm lenses are made to cover a 43mm
circle and provide
a camera with a 43x43 sensor? This sensor would have 114% more surface area and
approach
the quality possible with a 645 camera but be able to use 35mm system lenses.
2. If you have an electronic viewfinder, the flange to sensor distance can be
arbitrarily small. Why
hasn't someone made a body with a large sensor and a set of interchangeable
flanges which can
accommodate almost any 35mm system lens, from Leica/Contax to ... If smart
enough, the
flanges could even support auto exposure and auto focus lenses from various
makers.
