rosuna Posted October 20, 2015 Share #4 Posted October 20, 2015 The truth is that Leica have decided not to produce a direct competitor to the Sony A7, but to build the first really substantial mirrorless camera That seems to be the key... http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-news/2015/10/leica-sl-test-jono/?utm_source=luf151020&utm_medium=E-Mail Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieg Posted October 20, 2015 Share #7 Posted October 20, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Unfortunately Steve Huff's "thoughts on the SL" has just reinforced my view that he is just out to continue as a popularist blogger with no real or useful information to aid one's decision making when buying/using cameras. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a rambling about prices and prices and, oh, it looks like a greater than life the Sony a7r2. Zero useful info. Totally Useless, in my view.

sdw Posted October 21, 2015 Share #13 Posted October 21, 2015 Huff's 'editorial' is a complete waste of space. Just remove it. I don't even know why I bother to visit that website anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted October 21, 2015 Share #15 Posted October 21, 2015 http://uk.pcmag.com/leica-q-typ-116/72380/review/leica-sl-typ-601 Not sure PC-rag reviewer even knew what camera he had. Just cut and pasted some stuff they had on the Q and figured no one that reads an old outdated rag about PCs would know any better . At least SH's bitter review of the camera he has never seen didn't mix up the SL with the Q. Welcome, dear visitor!

Zero useful info. Totally Useless, in my view. Yevgeny Have to say I agree. I used to frequent his site at one point, but then it somehow turned into quite boring product boosting page with less and less relevance. With regards SL and his editorial, which for some strange reason I decided to read, it came through as bitter to me. I got the impression from it that he was a bit bitter to Leica for not sending a copy for him to test & inviting him to the event. So he seems to be in Sony's pocket now. Jono's article was once again nice. Though he is "in Leica's pocket", he admits it in every article that he has no desire to write anything negative about the cameras. At the same time though, he isn't making things any more positive than they are in reality. I've owned couple of the camera models later, that he's tested and found his articles to be very accurate based on those. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevieg Posted October 21, 2015 Share #17 Posted October 21, 2015 oh, noticed just now? you might like his other stuff http://huffparanormal.com I (probably a bit cheekily) posted on his forum very soon after the "SL thoughts" announcement. I suggested that he had totally missed the point regarding the SL and that there were a number of things that made the camera very exciting etc, etc. I suggested that a more considered view might be found in Jono's review of the camera. It remained on his site/page awaiting "moderation" for all of 20 minutes before it mysteriously disappeared!! How sad, How telling.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to make some positive remarks on his site but steve removed this comment. As far as i can see he also removed his views on the Leica SL from the banners.
