doug_nelson1 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Ho-Hum. Unless the CCD/CMOS is the same size as the 35mm frame, I need a 24mm lens to get 35. The difference in lens cost could buy a really good film scanner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeff_rivera5 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Jon, I know Marc was giving you a hard time, but the bunny still makes me chuckle. Now next week, that might be different. I'm working on getting a picture of my dog with an Eggo waffle on her head. I'll keep you updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yochin Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 Stephan Gandy put up new pages on this camera on his website cameraquest.com:<br><br><a href="http://www.cameraquest.com/voigtbessadigital.htm">Epson Bessa</a><br><br><a href="http://www.cameraquest.com/voigtpma2004.htm">Voigtlander at PMA 2004</a><br><br>Summarizing, he guesses it'll cost more than an M7/MP does now; also the Leica M digital is supposed to come out in 2006 and cost around $6000.00 (US) according to what he called private estimates; also, he speculates on the specifications guessing that the Bessa will have a 6 Megapixel APS size sensor and Auto Exposure lock and a number of other features; and guesses that the inclusion manual shutter winder is probably designed to appeal to the RF crowd and to conserve battery power (which makes sense).<br><br>Also, he adds his usual amusing editorial observations such as: "Far too many new cameras give the impression they were designed by computer freaks instead of photographers" (which is true); and he talks about the newest Voigtlander lens (the 35mm f2.5 pancake II, which is according to him modeled closely after the Pre-Asph Summicron) and the new "Slim line" 28mm/35mm metal finder (which looks like a good fit with the old screw mount camerae of which with the older fatter finder I always found really hard to lift and turn the fast shutter speed dial (in other words with the older fatter finder it was sort of a PITA)).<br><br>Remember, more information should be available from Epson and Voigtlander/Cosina on or about March 11th, 2004.
