Why are cameras so ugly? No one would call that good aesthetics or a beautiful design. Sure, very functional. But I don't wanna walk around with something ugly like this in my hand.

And please don't start with muh Fujifilm or Leica. Just sticking to the awful 80s design doesn't make it any better.

Why does it matter what it looks like?

A camera is a tool, not a fashion accessory.

Sony are the only company to successfully embrace modern design, pentax nearly managed it on a couple of occasions but always felt a bit novelty.

Olympus is modern design with classic sensibilities.

Sony isn't modern, it's trendy minimalism for the sake of being contrary. It's garbage.

Pic related is true modern aesthetics.

Because no consumer mas produced cameras from the modern era look as "good" as classic cameras or cameras costing $10k+ you fucking moron.

>>3404790

If you think pic related looks better than Olympus' you're a complete fucking retard. The Sony looks like some Chinese company that didn't have a budget to pay a product design team to come up with anything. It screams "what is the bare minimum we need for a camera that at least operates. Oh shit, wait, we need a grip too. There. That'll do."

Sony aesthetics are peak chinkshit.

That's not modern styling though. That's completely retro-chic. The Olys are modern styling, just with classic sensibilities.

Sonys has a sleek no frills functional design which is why its classic and timeless. It looks like a camera made for adults.

Olympus looks like a McDonalds happy meal toy from 2008. Not to mention its literally made in china with the cheapest possible materials.

No, they have a completely unimaginative, plain, unergonomic slab design that looks like some fucking retard in a sophomore design program came up with in Google Sketchup. Sony's styling is the worst of all mirrorless cameras. I've literally stayed on MFT because I refuse to buy such unergonomic, boring looking garbage.

I'll move to FF mirrorless when affordable L mount cameras are available.

Jfc that thing is a mess, so many textures and variations of black, it looks like they were terrified of leaving any surface plain.

It looks like it was designed by the engineering team and engineered by the design team. It's not modern, it's not classic, if it was a watch it would be a gauche, cheap dress chronograph from a stall at the mall.

>>3404776
This is the same dress chronograph, but with a non matching gold and chrome strap attached.

>>3404792
The sony looks like every other product at the red dot awards, clean lines, congruent, non-derivative, functional.

>>3404794
Fuji is just retro derivative, like the pt cruiser or fiat 500. Perfect for people who think possesions = personality. Perfect for us to look back and laugh hysterically at in 5 years time.

>>3404795
That's an absolute fucking mess.

>>3404857
>unimaginative
?!?
Literally the camera that looks least like any camera before it.

Great, we're talking about aesthetics.

Cutesy, pop culture aimed retro derivatives always fall under trash design.

Great, I'm going to guess you're a yobbish contractor, not a cabinet maker.

Great finishes with minimal work require great tools, you don't see cheap car bodyshops skimping on wet & dry or spray guns.
