PZers help…..I’ve got lost in latest development in mirrorles cameras.
Back in form days was simple.
If you need perfect WA and normal lenses up let say 130…140mm get Rangefinder – due to short flang distance ,no back mirror
If you need tele range - go for SLR.
And then arrives digital. Where I’m completely lost
- it seems the photo sites have problem if the light is coming from low angle. This no advantage in WA range
- Long telephoto demands high performance AF – all birds shooters in canon lnad considers 1d….1ds or at least 50d. I don’think that in next decay any mirroroleas can touch this theritory. Isn’t it?
My question to all PZe4rs is :
What are the advantages of shorter lens to sensor distance? /optical,mechanical,weight etc../

The Nikon V1/J1 is faster (AF) than a 1D(s) or 50D already. The latest Panas are also extremely fast although the Nikons will have an edge regarding object tracking for sure.

Can you do that with a DSLR ?
Things do really get shorter and more light-weight but just don't expect wonders. As far as wide-angles are concerned - you must not use symmetrical designs such as the Zeiss Biogon or Voigtländer Heliars.
If you compare the Oly 7-14/4 (FT) vs the Pana 7-14/4 you can immediately spot the difference in size/weight for instance between a DSLR and a mirrorless lens of similar specs.
