If you had taken the trouble to read my comments you would have learned that, when I asked Pixii if dioptric viewfinder adjustment was possible, the company president replied that "he would nor sell to people like me". So much for customer relations. Edited May 5, 2023 by Viv Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
padam Posted July 27, 2023 Share #67 Posted July 27, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) The concept is interesting it might even be ahead of Leica with regard to a future M could look like. No mechanical shutter and fast readout FF sensor. See what's missing from this equation? Yep, exactly - and in more ways than one. I understand stacked sensors could pose a challenge regarding size, heat and power draw. But maybe a non-stacked sensor from the A7SIII / Sony ZV-E1 would have made it really desirable even at a higher price. (Although it seems that this is not a sensor that we'll see in a non-Sony camera any time soon and some may think 12MP would be too low for stills anyway). As-is, I would rather just try and source an M10 instead, it is a much more usable camera. It seems unclear to me if they are committed to fit in bigger or/and faster sensors in the future, or just keep as-is because is already fully designed as a non-stacked sensor crop sensor camera and it would not be profitable otherwise.

NoDot Posted November 2, 2023 Share #68 Posted November 2, 2023 I’d like to know some things not available on the website (at least, I can’t find answers): Estimated battery life, -website only states they doubled the life of the previous model- images per charge. Minimum rangefinder focusing distance. Eye-relief -ie how does it compare to the M10/M11 when shooting wider than 50mm with glasses. Rangefinders and eyeglasses, a pipe dream, but one can be hopeful. The website states that a preview image is sent to your phone via Bluetooth. Can it also wirelessly transfer full-size DNG’s? Can images be transferred to smartphones/tablets via cable?

I had only had my Epson RD-1s (from new) for about three years when they discontinued it and spares were no longer available. Pixxi is an expensive, niche product being made in small numbers by a small independent in a tight economic climate (a war in Europe and slow growth, borderline recession). I admire your confidence that it will be supported for decades to come. In any case, I would happily buy one if it was either full frame, or quite a bit cheaper. The M240 is both cheaper and full frame. something is cooking: is it going to be the full frame Pixii? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simone_DF Posted July 4, 2024 Share #71 Posted July 4, 2024 Now that they went full frame it's more appealing to many, me included. I'm not in the market right now, but I'll definitely think about getting one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgk Posted July 4, 2024 Share #72 Posted July 4, 2024 Leica finally have competition in their digital but traditional niche. Cost seems about half of Leica's current (IMO) both overspecified and overpriced offering. Interesting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

costa43 Posted July 4, 2024 Share #74 Posted July 4, 2024 It's nice to see a small independent company give this market a go. I'll wait for it to be tested and reviewed but it looks very promising and a consideration ahead of the m11p release. 5k in the EU when you add taxes is pretty steep for the first round though, it's not far off a used m11. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

benqui Posted July 6, 2024 Share #78 Posted July 6, 2024 A great idea and I really like the style of the camera, really a very cool idea. I wish them luck to sell a lot of the cameras but for 100% it is not mine. For sure it is a lot of money and nobody can guarantee that the company is still on the market when I have problems with the camera in some years.

M11 for me Posted July 7, 2024 Share #79 Posted July 7, 2024 (edited) A few months ago I had the APS-C model equiped with an M lens in my hands. Its a great and heavy feeling. No haptic comparison to Fuji or Sony. @pop It was yours 👍 Edited July 7, 2024 by M11 for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris W Posted July 8, 2024 Share #80 Posted July 8, 2024 I have had banding issues on other cameras with electronic shutter only. It's not so bad if you only shoot daylight images. Because of that I would rather have a used M10 of some kind over the PIXXI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
