And the list would purportedly exclude near toy cameras which a pro would eschew. Though it doesn't. The Nikon 1's are on there for one. Its sensor is half the size of a 4/3's. An "Alternative" to a camera is another camera. That's as vague as it can get. A camera with a black and white setting does not narrow it down much. And also there is also the idea that the Leica Monochrom is a quality product. And if we feel we can use a cheap one as an alternative than that's your definition of that word. The problem being that the Monochrom probably gives results which are far above all others as its both a Leica camera made to usual premium standards AND its the only non medium format digital camera with a black and white sensor. This second reason is more to the point. When another camera comes out with a black and white sensor I'm sure we'll see it compared to the Leica monochrome in tests. Even if its price point is way lower. On 9/23/14 4:34 PM, "Tina Manley" <tmanley at gmail.com> wrote: > It's not on the recommended list either.
