These are all the features and cool things I would love to see in a new camera. Now they do not have to come by Christmas. I know just how long it can take to make a good winning camera. Most of this is astrophotography stuff. Some though any person would love to have though I am sure.

RED35: Merits of M43 against Full Frame (in a Professional Environment)

Share

Red35:

As many already said, there are technical differences between formats. Most people often compare Micro Four Thirds and Full Frame, and in today’s video, I want to highlight some of these differences, but more importantly, from a professional angle, and in my case, from a documentary and portrait photographer. Everyone has his/her use case and may prefer different formats, but this video is more about Micro Four Thirds.
