Say MFT? Just say it. Once. For us. Yes?

Street photographers often like the 35mm look. The 3:2 format, and even the ability to at times use a bigger aperture. That is why for instance the Leica M series was so popular among serious street photographers.



If you take an 28mm f2.8 as example, that would mean a 14mm f1.4 on MFT. A 35mm f2 would mean a 17mm f1.

And only the GH2 from Panasonic actually does 3:2 "natively".



So, yes, the current crop of 135 format full frame cameras has a downside: bulk. Apart from the Leica M9. The current crop of MFT cameras have downsides too. Some are toy like. They have a not always appreciated 4:3 aspect ratio. They lack a certain IQ and 14mm f1.4 and 17mm f1 will not exactly be very small.



Glad you like your toys, though. I like mine too.



The 28mm f1.4 has a big fanbase, and not without reason.

Look for instance what this wedding photographer does with this lens... I really like the images taken with this lens. The 70-200mm f2.8 images are not nearly in the same league.
