Why no full size, high res images available for examination? A million
cameras can produce a good 1300x867 jpeg. This seems odd to me.

Personally, I've never really seen the point to providing "full size, high rez
images … for examination" unless I was discussing a particular point of
interest and needed to illustrate it with a full resolution photo, and then
it's usually only a 1:1 pixel resolution clip that's needed. But, to

It appears to be a very nice camera, but for the cost of that body & kit
lens I could almost afford the Pentax "645Z Medium Format DSLR Camera

This is true, it's an expensive piece of equipment. But it's an entirely

Hi Jack,
The SL EVF is without question the best one on the market today. It is nothing
short of an excellent viewfinder in all respects.
There aren't many adjustments to be made other than brightness, which can be
set in a range of five or six steps, or to scale automatically. Plus the

I'm afraid neither the Leica, nor the 645Z is anywhere in my foreseeable
future.

I'm using the standard Leica neck strap at present. It's reasonably comfortable
