Looks neat, but does the retro styling come with retro weight? Even with the battery grip and bigger glass, my old Minolta is still slightly heavier in my hands than my Nikon.

I think it's around 1.5 lbs. for the body. Not much more than a D600, but that's understandable with a full magnesium body.

Yeah that nikon df is garbage just like what nikon has been putting out lately (the 58mm 1.4g, 18-140mm kit lens and the d600 with all its issues oil on sensor and what not)

What the heck are you talking about, those are great lenses. I do know they eventually did address the oil issue with the updated 610.

Yeah, I'm pretty familiar with that thread. I wanted to start a new one about new gear you don't have, upcoming cameras, gear that are on your wish list, rumors...etc.

my next lens will most likely be the Sigma 35mm f/1.4. I rented one for the race in Sonoma and it was fantastic!
