Another D810 owner here:
I kinda hope they do go under and soon. This body will last me until it finally dies which likely won't be for a very long time. A ton of people will jump ship for other systems because loldeadmount, and suddenly, all Nikon lenses become a shitton cheaper.

The lens selection is shit, the lenses they do have are standard focal length re branded tamshits, they lack any specialty lenses which are required for different areas of work and on top of all this its basically a dead system haemorrhaging money from Ricoh who are already looking to kill the system off completely.

I was hyped for this camera but it's too heavy and I rather have a non-articulating screen. It's very affordable compared to the competition but it's not an investment I want to make right now.

I think it's a great camera, it's just not the camera for me right now. Maybe if pentax releases a budget version I would be all over it:

>no articulating screen
>lower resolution sensor (maybe they can borrow the sensor from an A7s)
>take away all non-essential features
>keep weight under 750g
>keep price under 1000$

I'd be all over that.

Is the D750 worse? Is the A7S worse? Is the A9 worse? Is the 5DMKIV worse?

Manufactures make different tiers for a reason. Some people want to take pictures and don't need all that extra resolution or bulk. Why pay for shit you don't need?

By your logic the only acceptable camera purchase 100MP medium format camera. Anything else is just worse and cheaper.

>people leave system

nigga wut? Sure after some time the fact that lenses aren't being made any longer will finally outnumber all of the lenses that people are dumping on the market (it'll just be a few pros who don't jump ship because they'll no longer have NPS support, which while nowhere near as good as CPS is still a necessity for many and why Sony isn't pro).

Apparently it's a common issue with the D810. Most likely that the spring inside pushes the battery just a slight bit too far, causing that problem.

The ones available on market, used, would be expensive as the new ones left behind.

my point of view about Nikon is, if Nikon goes down, they will try to get a Hasselblad status. Few cameras, few lenses, everything even more expensive. But I don't see Nikon going down, it's just a meme

KP is a retro design, camera comes second, just like with the Df. If you want to compare camera performance try it with the K-70. I know it doesn't look retro, but stop thinking of your camera as a purse for once.

But it uses the exact same hardware as any other Pentax. Don't try and hide behind "muh retro", the fact is, Pentax's """"best"""" is subpar.

Literally the camera that killed Pentax. They were floating about fine, until they took on that project. Should have stuck to low cost APS-C.

pentax KP was supposedly made to be paired with those small beautiful DA limited lenses, except that the KP looks fucking disgusting when used with DA limited lenses because of that huge, tall gap between the lens and pentaprism housing. And if you look, it's just empty space there, absolutely no need for it. Why is it so difficult for camera manufacturers to get this right?
