In 2022 I will have been professionally behind the lens for 50 years. This purchase is most certainly my last camera. This is a very complex instrument with innumerable settings and options. My rating that it not easy to use is not a negative. Firstly I barely opened the manual. Hey, after 50 years I know everything right? No. My first WTF came when objects in the magnificent viewfinder had blue halos around them. I thought it was an exposure warning. Nope, it is a focus assist setting and for an old guy whose eyes ain't what they used to be it is a blessing. I use this camera with numerous legacy lenses, primarily from Leica. All are manual focus. This camera is absolutely perfect for using L-mount adaptors for some of the finest glass ever made. At this point I have only been testing the camera out with numerous lenses. The results at 47mp are breathtaking. I plan on shooting winter scenes up in the mountains where I live. I can only imagine using the ultra-high setting on a tripod for 187mp images. I will amend this review when I have suitable images to share. I can say without reservation, this is the finest camera I have ever used and I have used everything. If you buy this camera, read the manual and watch videos on YouTube with tutorials on operation..Read full review

Great image quality, great IBUS, great ergonomic’s. Recently got home and was carrying the camera in the hallway, when the lens caught the corner of the bathroom door. The camera including attached lens goes flying out of my hand, from about 4 ft high; slow motion noooooooo. It lands on the tile floor with 3 bounces involved, and not a scratch on the camera, and everything works like it should …yaaay. Recommend

It is larger and heavier than most of its competition, but I like the heft and placement of the controls. The viewfinder is awesome. Likewise the sharpness. This will become my favorite camera of all time, and I go back to Rolleiflexes and Linhofs. Is it a good value? Well, I got a great price. I think the list price might be a hindrance for many people.

Excellent camera. Perfect for landscape or anytime high detail is needed. Ranks 100 on DXO. Can't get much better than that. Prefer this over other FF I've tried - A7R4, EOS R, Pentax K1. It is hefty, but pros outweigh the cons.

Great product! Now if Panasonic added the video features of the Lecia SL2 it would be fantastic!
