The Nikon 1 V3 is ...
#17
Quote:As I said, the 1" sensor makes great images, so there is no need to compare with MFT.

 

Not sure what you mean about unnecessary bulk but the J5 is seriously small. I actually prefer the size of the V1 because it uses the same battery as the top-end Nikons which means that battery life is great.

 

As for pricing, who knows? I recently bought the wife an Apple Watch and just out of curiosity I went and priced Hermes watch bands. Do you have any idea what crazy prices these are? And yet Hermes reported record profit/revenue last year.

 

I just don't think that price is truly the/an issue.

 

What killed the 1 System is all the Fake News and Alternative Facts crowd.
What I meant is it even has a smaller sensor than MFT, let alone APS-C, and yet the price does not reflect that. 

The J5 is not a lens, as far as I understand. I said the lenses have unnecessary bulk. You have a tiny sensor, yet the lens barrels are as wide as any APS-C mirrorless lens. They could have designed things better, to make the case for "small is beautiful". They did not, and in my opinion that was a flaw in the concept.

 

So yes, on the prices, the concept, the profit, it clearly has not worked out for Nikon.
