I am still hoping for an S sized sensor in a mirrorless body.

Pico you should take a look at the S it isn't that much bigger than the M and with the IQ so so much better I am sure you would get a whole bunch of enjoyment out of it :)

Come on Neil we all want another M.

Algrove mate; I would have thought you would have snapped yourself up a new S while the prices have been slashed

Those oil fumes must cause brain fog....

 

 

The S lenses alone are HUGE....not even counting the hoods.

Jeff now you know that is exaggerating a wee bitty...............last week I went for a walk around a open market in Lagos with my Leica S, 70mm attached and two extra lenses and it was effortless carrying those. I had the S around my neck and the other 2 lenses in a Harley Small.........Unfortunately the first time I went to take a picture in the market it caused a huge commotion and me and the driver jumped in the jeep and got the hell out of there before we were lynched ................ scary shit.

But saying that carrying the S and the two lenses was a doddle, no different to carrying the M the MM and 3 lenses.

Does the picture show up on your screen?

 

And why would I want to carry 2 cameras and 3 lenses?  I use the M with one lens and maybe one small lens in my pocket.  If I put an S lens in my pocket, I think the only benefit might be more dates.

I don't..........I used to until I got the S,....................... now the S gets better IQ pictures in both colour and black and white so no need for two M bodies

Win win situation

You're the one who mentioned carrying the M and MM.  I have zero need....the M suffices performs superbly for my color and b/w prints.   ;)

 

I even took a few minutes to make sure my RF was perfect by comparing to LV.   :lol:

 

Regarding Jeremy, only when Stefan needs a video stand-in....

I snatched up a 645Z system since right now Sony MF sensors are the ones to have and Michael Reichmann (Sept 2014 Lula article) feels the Pentax people have gotten the most out of that sensor even compared to Hasselblad and Phase One. And besides the Z sensor is like 26% larger than the S sensors. That extra 14MP helps when printing 36x48.  I love 8-12 collaged images giving me a nice file size of around 1.5 GB before even starting with PP.
