135mm RF Camera

Kaman posted a message on my forum on the 135mm camera. No matter SLR or RF. OK.. Let's go! Here's the summary of our posts: -

G2:
quoted from kaman:
1. "the camera itself is not very expensive, but the lenses are a kit set includes the body, 2(21mm and 35)/3(28, 40 and 90mm) lenses, a flash, hood, and a filter costs $12600!!!!! but saw the pictures taken by this camera, really impressive~!!! so detail and the colour is so beautiful~~~~~ the worst thing is that contax has stopped the production of this camera, so gotta to buy fast while stock last..... love that 21mm lens sooooooooo much!!!!!!!! "
2. "of coz, carl zeiss ma the body is just 5xxx but the 21mm lens cost 4800~ my colleague said this 21mm is the best ga la even the edges have no distortion, only a bit dark on the edges if i'm really buying g2, i think i'll take the 21mm kit set coz i want a better camera to take pictures of lanscapes, other 到此一遊pic i can then use my dc~ the reason i wanna buy a new camera is becoz dc's pictures are not gd enough, so if buy a cheap SLR has no meaning to me i want a gd lens~!!!!!! " [one of the "selected" sentences]
3. "so y i like g2 is becoz of its 21mm zeiss lens~ haha"
Suddenly changed her mind, Kaman said "g-2好bulky,又貴,仲要都係傻瓜機only,應該唔會買佢啦" (Translated: "g-2 is very bukly and very expensive... and still it's only an RF, so I'm not buying it!")

n-x/n-1:
quoted from Kaman:
1. "睇過d相contax n-1係好對板但13xxx,供2年,仲要整多數百元買filter我驚我太衝動啦... 但係,我想10月去雲南時(如果真係搞到的話)可以有部靚d ge機影風景呀~而最大concern係contax又停產啦,我怕我至後想買買唔到...."
2. "n-x同n-1比.個size真係細好多~其實講function佢地只係快門速度n-1會快少少,但n-x個kit set個支鏡唔及n-1個支24-85mm好,可以分開買n-x body同鏡,但會唔係好化算.... 所以,我估最大機會都係會買n-1個kit set....好大舊,可以拎去打山賊..... 價錢,9900,24個月免息分期要俾6% service charge = 每個月437.25,平過之前係旺角睇 "
3. "n-x 個kit set有50mm/f1.4定焦鏡 or28-85mm ge zoom鏡choose. 個50mm有1.4光圈,的確有d吸引力,但要5xxx(最衰尋日無問到個價)加埋24-85mm支lens大慨係4xxx.即刻同埋n-1 kit set個價差不多,但就會有多一支鏡woh...但買多支鏡=要買多塊filter..... anyway,應該會買24-85mm支鏡,問題係個body要n-x定n-1"

T3:
quoted from Kaman:
1. "for SLR, i think the body won't cost too much, 3-4k can have a SLR lu, like EOS3, can't remember the exact model name la, but the lens is horrible , so given the same amount i'll buy a T3 for sure "
2. "其實影snap shoot呢,搵部唔太差ge d cam都ok呀,好似我用緊部nikon到ok呀~最緊要係輕同方便.況且,要搵拍得住t3 ge d cam,似乎難d bor~t3仲要出名支鏡靚tim ge~"
3. "部t-3真係好靚仔,有細woh,但得35mm ge定焦鏡,無咩野可以玩law "

Others:
quoted from Kaman & Can:
1. "GR1v also got 21mm!!!!! umum.... but GR's lenses are a bit "red"... i just think if i use the kodak paper.... wow.. must be very sharp and red in tone~ but if i use fuji.. also very strange... "
2. "我同事見議我可以買部平ge cannon body + 一支L series ge lens....quality同contax n-1應該唔差好遠,價錢差不多同埋cannon呢支lens,如果想換,7/8折2手賣出去都會有人要,但n-1就好難放得出去~ "
3. "carl zeiss~~~~ 都係我極度崇尚ge名牌!!!!! 不過我既相機"神"係 "leica"~ leica = 無可倫比!! 哈哈~ 我既 "dream 傻瓜機" 都係 gr1~ 唔知係咪停產呢? 以前係旺角都見過，個陣唔捨得買，上年想買個陣已經無~"
4. "leica連個價都係無與倫比啦!!" [this is another "selected" sentence from Kaman]
5. "所以(leica)係"神"級~"

So.... to sum up, Kaman may buy an SLR (choosing between n-1 and n-x and the lenses/ filters etc.) and Can is still saving $$ to buy her dream SLR. And now, if she had enough $$, she will choose to buy a DSLR/ SLR-liked DC. (:P 'coz Can is still a so-called 'electronic-gal')
