My Sony NEX 5n and Fuji X100

One thing about the two cameras above that I have at home is that I feel no need to upgrade.  Yes, the new 16mp sensor in the X100S would be better, and a viewfinder like on the NEX 6 also nice, but neither are going to make a huge improvement to my photography.  I am looking for something that will be substantially better in image quality, usability and give me something that I can't do now.  As an example, a full frame mirrorless, like an E mount RX-1, would be something I would seriously consider worthy.  Until that time, I'll stick with what I've got.

Sony RX-1 - Droooool....

In my previous post I wrote about my love for the 35mm focal length.  It is for this reason that I am quite in awe of Sony's new compact the RX-1.  It is a small camera, yet sports a full frame sensor and a 35mm f2 Carl Zeiss lens. Drool.....

So what's not to like?  Nothing.  Except for the fact it costs $2800!  Roughly the same price as a Nikon D800 body.  Cheap for a Leica M9 with a 35mm Summicron, sure, but that is still crazy dough.

Perhaps, the perfect night street shooter?  Probably.  Drooling resumed.....
