I think that’s a pretty loose interpretation of “great”

I'm guessing you never got rear-ended, right?

My ex had a Mercury Bobcat when we got married, which was a Pinto with a Mercury name. It was dependable but could have done double duty as a boat anchor. It had the sleek lines of a hippopotamus. Had it been a dance partner, it would have been a hundred pound sack of potatoes with stove pipes for legs.

Not a clue what you’re talking about.

I do. And he is waaaaaaay off the mark. Nothing to see there.

Worse yet, he compared a wide genre to a very specific example (EVF is a broad genre, D850 is a specific item and not a genre). Typical UHH crackpot fanboi.

See the lineage now?

Big, black with red accents, and borderline useless (why no roof?)

Now I can see some sort of loose connection there. Thank you.

SuperflyTNT and niteman3d, I loved my Pinto--I had the 1971 (first model) with the optional larger engine and a/c, and it did what I wanted very well. (Did go through 3 timing belts, but replacements were not difficult.) No, I was not rear-ended. I think that problem was blown way out of reason, anyway. Sold it in Germany when I retired from USAF there, and bought a 1980 Capri when I came home.

Why do those people who have a choice in a system that still has DSLRs and mirrorless still purchase technologically antiquated and some discontinued DSLRs that came out years ago that will soon not be supported.
They have the option of buying far more technologically advanced cameras for the same money that will still receive service.
Just curious what is the driving force to spend money on old obsolete cameras?



I guess the answer should be more inclined about the advantages and disadvantages of both. I have an 80d, great camera, both in photo and video. If somebody can post this info maybe we can make an educated decision of which is a better choice.

There are a lot of posts on the UHH about this and also a lot of the comparision on the web. The one aspect is the viewfinder which you have to check it out for yourself.

I use the little screen on both...and the controls in the screen..
I have a eosr, it's lighter one advantage

If you have both the 80D and the EOS-R you should know the answer for yourself without asking. Besides if you use the little screen only there is no advantage on the DSLR at all except that you're already have it.

I quit being afraid when I bought a mirrorless camera and none of my old DLSRs burst into smoke.
