thpeters Posted April 2, 2007 Share #5  Posted April 2, 2007 Question?  Make it sense to start with this?, both camera's are 4 years on the market.  Is the output not more import then the difference in the 2 camera's  Just my 2 cents  Theo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riley Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share #9 Â Posted April 2, 2007 no i didnt forget them, i just thought of them as external to the camera. On the same basis, i felt pretty 'iffy' about the lens cap too. Â i think its interesting that the bodies really are quite different pressings Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thpeters Posted April 2, 2007 Share #10 Â Posted April 2, 2007 well there are so many detail differences, i see the rangefinder window is different toois the output really the same ? Â Â Yes the output is the same, I had both camera's and did a lot of the same pictures and post it, a very,very,long time ago, nobody could tell witch one was the D2 or the LC1.

misha Posted April 2, 2007 Share #16  Posted April 2, 2007 lc1 after three years of relatively careless use in myanmar, sudan, uganda, etc..:  - all aperture markings were gone in two months (just rubbed off) - most of the front plastic (including the grip) is gone - long gave up shooting anything but iso 100 @ high jpeg - still decent battery (cumbersome charger) - no buffer was the biggest drag - sweet spots somewhere between f4 and f5.6 and between 50-70mm  due to m8, lc1 is now shamefully (and somewhat understandably) collecting dust. might still take it to mongolia as second camera this summer to mongolia.
