Allow me to write this slowly, since apparently you can't read fast:

S C R O L L  U P to see what I wrote previously on the topic under discussion.

Then, kindly be quiet.

Could we return to the topic, please? Pissing contests can be had everywhere, don't need them here.

Viv, are you by any chance a Pixii ambassador or in some other way affiliated to the company?

I am not.

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.

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.
