In all of these cases, new entrants to the market built the new generation devices and the incumbent vendors failed to see the change coming in time and ended up losing their market leadership or going out of business altogether.

But in the mean time, smaller drives were introduced that didn’t initially have the capacity or speed of the larger drives, but opened up new markets, like the desktop PC replacing the mini computer, enabled by 5.25″ drives, and the rise of the laptop that was enabled by the 3″ drive. In each case, existing customers pushed their suppliers to keep improving the cost per megabyte and the speed of the established disk categories. He talks about how the disk drive industry went through multiple transitions, from 8″ drives to 5.25″ drives to 3.5″ and smaller. He cites examples from many industries, but perhaps the one with the clearest parallel is the disk drive industry. To me this is a classic example of the disruptive technology, as described in Clayton Christensen’s excellent book The Innovator’s Dilemma. I went out shooting recently with a good friend who is an excellent wildlife photographer, who has a Nikon full frame camera, and she was quite envious of the way I could get flight shots of owls hopping between trees using 6K photo mode that she really struggled to get using a traditional fast burst mode. This let me get multiple outstanding shots of herons fishing recently, and barn swallows flying, which I wouldn’t have got by other means. One of my favorite features on the Lumix G9 is its range of fast burst modes, including 6K photo mode, which I’ve written about previously. The lenses are just way too large and unwieldy, especially large zoom lenses, which means they are a huge pain to travel with or hike with.Īlso, mirrorless cameras (including full frame ones such as those offered by Sony) are innovating hugely faster than traditional DSLR cameras. So the more I think about it, my answer to the question above is that I would not swap my Lumix G9 for any full frame camera, even if I could swap for a much more expensive setup for free. I wouldn’t switch my G9 for a full frame camera I also have a very compact tripod that I use when I travel, though increasingly I don’t need that in lots of situations because the image stabilization on the G9 is so good. My complete camera gear, with 3 lenses including the 100-400mm, a 15mm equivalent fisheye and one of a couple of intermediate zooms, weighs about 8 pounds and fits into a packing cube that is about 12″ x 8″ x 4″. This is the case whether the full frame camera is mirrorless or not. I could cite lots of examples, but the general story is that full frame lenses are hugely larger and heavier than comparable lenses for micro four thirds cameras. More and more I hear people using who are using traditional large zoom lenses grumbling about how difficult it is to manage them.

It is extremely hard to hand hold, so most people use it together with a tripod, which also needs to be heavyweight to support this sort of gear. Even though this only has 62% of the reach of my Leica lens, it weighs 5 pounds and is 17″ x 7.5″. I’ve included an Amazon affiliate link in case any passing Nikon users would like to buy one – I would appreciate it!Ī less esoteric lens is the Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6, which is very popular among wildlife photographers who I know. Nikon has one, which costs $16,000, weighs 10 pounds and is 18″ long x 6″ in diameter. At the time of writing, the current going rate is around $1600.Īn 800mm lens for a full frame camera is a rare beast. This lens weighs 2.17 pounds (roughly 1kg) and measures 6.76″ long by 3.27″ diameter.

Being able to easily hand hold an 800mm equivalent lens in the full frame world is pretty much unheard of. I extensively use the Leica 100-400mm lens (200-800mm equivalent), which is outstanding. This is especially a big deal for wildlife photography, which is one of my main interests. In general, full frame lenses tend to be twice as heavy, or more, than their Micro 4/3 equivalents. While the two cameras are actually very similar in size and weight, the full frame sensor on the Sony means that lenses are substantially larger and heavier. However, this is a full frame camera, while my camera, the Lumix G9, has a smaller Micro Four Thirds sensor. Sony certainly does some great cameras, and I have some friends who love them. I also wanted to ask you, what do you think about the Sony Alpha A7R III camera? Of all the reviews I have read, it seems like the current indisputable champion amongst mirrorless cameras. A little while ago I got a message from a friend who is a good photographer and he asked me:
