Canon’s EF->RF adaptor is native, with full electronics. Other manufacturers – if they ever get around to emulating the electronics – would have to reverse engineer it, like Metabones does.

If you keenly follow where the smart money getting deployed, you would not miss Apollo Pipes. Investors such as Vallabh Bhansali (family), Mukul Agrawal, Kotak Small Cap, IDFC and few others already find their names in the shareholders list. Very recently, Malabar India Fund, an investment boutique run on value investing philosophy, has picked up a 2.59 percent stake at about Rs 400 a share.

As Canon News points out, that means one of two things: The first possibility is that the EOS M line will never get a decent selection of fast, high-quality, lighter-weight lenses even if Canon is up to managing products for three active lens-mount lines. 

These are all the exact same things I’ve pondered. And all your questions are ones that surely the smart people at Canon/Nikon have pondered too. Thus my belief that they surely, surely must come up with some kind of mount system that integrates current lenses well.

Additional work, including additional trenching and backfill, was required for the woodstave penstock replacement project taking place between the Forebay area and standpipes above the Spearfish hydroelectric plant, at a cost of $34,965.96, bringing the total cost to $747,859.19, with a new completion date of Jan. 31.

Brian Pernicone grew up admiring the coastal waters of New England and that influence is evident in much of his work, which focuses primarily on coastal landscapes, boats, New England wildlife, and water sports.

Thanks for the link. Based on this information it doesn’t really seem like that would be the main driving force for a new lens mount, but since Nikon has so many different AF variations of their F-mount, it makes sense to me that they would feel the need for a new design going forward. At some point you have to just move on. Canon users went through this when they went from FD to EF mount.

Interesting viewpoint. From my perspective the end result is the be all end all. Unless a camera is ergonomically ridiculous to use in my hands, I’m sure I can adapt my feel for it. In saying that, I’m only 5’7 and 63kg so size for my fingers doesn’t really matter, but I know its a massive issue for bigger people with bigger hands and fingers.

"That said, it is unrealistic to expect that achieving this milestone will win hearts, minds or trust," said Edwards, who also dug up documents showing that state leaders knew in the summer of 2015 there was lead contamination in Flint’s water.

A third, the Clean Power Alliance in Los Angeles, “would have to cut into its financial reserves to offer those rates while offsetting an additional $125 million in unexpected costs to customers” caused by Southern California Edison’s inability to predict energy prices this summer, the Los Angeles Times reported.

So why go with a Leica L mount where the only native lenses available start at almost $5000 USD? Well, Panasonic can now make their own more affordable L mount lenses as well as not having to create a whole new mount.
