35 years ago, I was the stereotypical Fine Arts student lugging a Nikon SLR daily to school. I shot a lot of pics, developed them myself and printed it in my own darkroom.
I spent too much on building up my gear only to find out that this was an endless quest to perfection. So when the digital SLR era came about, I never joined the bandwagon. I missed the entire DSLR period and bought a camera again only when better mirror-less cameras came out.
It's a decision I partly regret because I realize that I could have taken better photos of my kids then. However, I tried to avoid falling into the trap of buying gear that would soon be outmoded.
Finally, I've seen something I like.
Two years ago, Zeiss championed its very first full-frame digital camera with Android connectivity. In the time since, the platform — dubbed the ZX1 — was seemingly lost in translation, with no release date in sight. Over the weekend, however, the company revealed that the long-awaited launch would actually take place this year; within the coming months, even.
Thanks to the recent listing of the ZX1 on B&H, it seems that the rumors are true. For those of you who don’t know, the camera is Zeiss’s first full-frame model established under the “Shoot, Edit, and Share” ethos. Since it runs on the Android operating system, users will be able to capture amazing stills with the camera’s 37-megapixel sensor and fixed 35mm f/2 lens before editing them on an integrated version of Adobe Lightroom. Users will be able to utilize the ZX1’s 4.3-inch touchscreen for cropping, and color correction functions. Editing on-the-go will now become easier than ever. Since it features a suite of built-in technologies like Wi-Fi and USB-C, you can transfer your finished photos directly to your phone, computer, or smart device without having to tether up.
It looks like a really good camera. The only barrier may be the price at $6,000!
