¿ Cuanto les quedará a las compactas, incluso a las buenas como esta ?
Con el retraso habitual al que nos tiene acostumbrados el bueno de Steve’s Digicams presenta hoy su análisis a fondo de una compacta superviviente, de esas de sensor pequeño y que está muy bien pero que a estas alturas de la película ya parece un poco «demodé».
Os pongo en el formato habitual para esta WEB las características de la maquinita y los «pros» y «contras» del análisis.

Y este es el análisis completo
Yo con mi s95 ya estoy haciendo el ridiculo por la calle…….definitivamente tendre que hacer ahorrillos para la Ricoh GR (definitivamente Nikon A y Sony RX100 descartados).
El precio hoy por hoy ya es injustificable.
