Are technical cameras the ultimate endgame?
>>4494538They're so niche and cumbersome. Ideally shouldn't the perfect camera excel at everything? So something that can go with you anywhere but also deliver fantastic results in a studio, be fast, easy to use, durable etc... Something that could be a great camera for every kind of photography would be the perfect camera, wouldn't it?
>>4494539Ah yes, the Canon 5D Mark II.
>>4494538If you're after ultimate image quality they are definitely an endgame camera, but only for slower and more methodical work. It will not be a camera you can just walk around with snapping willy nilly if you want to utilize their full capabilities.Technical cameras have very high precision fitment/parallelity and great ridgidity between lens and sensor that plays a major role in why they produce such good quality images.You can get older tech cameras for 120 format if you wanted to play around with one. They aren't too expensive. The camera in your picture could easily exceed 30k with the right lens and databack.>>4494539All cameras have compromises and there is no truly perfect camera. I doubt there ever will be.
>>4494546>All cameras have compromises and there is no truly perfect camera. I doubt there ever will be.Hence the word 'ideally'
>>4494543Another victory for the 5D mk 2, when will it end...
>>4494538Too big, if you want the perfect ratio usefulness/resolution just buy a medium format they can do 80% of what your picrel can for 600bucks. A RB67 will never break and you can travel with it, it's just at the limit of breaking my twink back. The only thing you won't have for most mediums is the architectural features, but, you can modify them or buy a fuji (but then it's too big for traveling). Also if you want to start this, shoot slide film, it feels magic in medium format. I shot two rolls of E100 in Hong Kong last week I'm waiting for the lab results I'll post it soon
>>4494538no, this is
>technical... camera?yes please
