Quote:Did I write that the price is crazy and based on nothing? No, just pointed out that the price is very high for a 24mm f2.8 FF equivalent (in regards to the 24mm f2.8 from Canon for instance). The Canon uses less elements, which also is part of that equation.

Small elements are cheaper to produce than large elements. The Sigma I mentioned has much bigger glass, and a similar amount of elements. It still is considerably cheaper.

 

So, a bad deal for MFT users.
 

 

I actually quoted your post to reply to and then went on to add replies to others as well, which were not quoted, that's all.

 

Whether it is a bad deal is for any propective buyer(s) to decide. Whether you find it a bad deal is irrelevant, especially as you are not a fan of micro 4/3. Besides, as I already pointed out elsewhere, an F/1.4 is an F/1.4, whether it is a FF F/2.8 equivalent or not. I really wonder at times what axes you seem to have to grind with anything that is not to your liking or does not conform to yoru ideas or opinions, to be very honest. I just don't understand your way of thinking.

 

HTH, regards, Wim
