Derrell, I can't help but say that your reaction makes you look fearful of mirrorless cameras. Didn't you use cameras easily prior to the advent of autofocus? I did. I have a manual lens in my mirrorless system and have no problem using it. Beagle isn't lying. He is expressing opinions that differ from yours. Personally, I won't go back to DSLR's after having my mirrorless system.
Since you don't like mirrorless cameras, don't buy them. But don't criticize people who prefer them to DSLR's.
Nice try, but no, what I dislike is people spreading lies to innocent beginners... I am not criticizing beagle's love of mirrorless cameras, but rather the massive lies he posts here, everty single time somebody who is confused or a beginner, asks a purchasing question. he spreads a cannard, a half-truth, whatever you wish to call it. BS information. Misleading information. Zealotry that is downright deceptive to beginners.
As a senior member here, with thousands of posts designed to HELP people get the best photographic information I know how to provide, I take it upon myself to challenge and expose outright deceptive statements.
I find it kind of lame that, instead of addressing my actual points, you made an ad hominem attack on "me". Classless move, dude.
I know you've convinced yourself that mirrorless cameras are the way you want to go, yet, instead of addressing the actual issues with mirrorless cameras with
ADAPTED d-slr lenses, you know instead of you addressing the FACTS I brought up, you attacked ME, personally. And attacked my photographic experience. WTF, man.
Maybe you can respond like a grown-up in your folllow-up post, BMW? Maybe address the fricking hardware issues with
using adapted d-slr lenses, instead of attacking me and casting aspersions on me?
And, maybe, just maybe, you will spell my name correctly if you respond. Okay, BMW?
