Nikon Z fc and Z 28mm f/2.8 SE announced

And then that "pancake" prime, a 28mm f2.8 for FF (28mm is not the most popular focal length) and a 42mm f4.2 FF equivalent on "DX". Canon and Fuji showed Nikon how to do it right (22mm f2 and 23mm f2 respectively), and Nikon decided otherwise?

At least Nikon did not strip video ability from it, like they did with the Df... and they gave it a nice swivel screen.

 Why silliness ?...... I think the D4 is one of the few classy looking DSLRs ever made .......  with plenty of chromed brass and quality construction  ........ 
...  it also had the renowned sensor from the D4, a good FF sensor to this day ...... both from the POV of noise, DR and colour rendition ........... it is a well sort after camera that still has a strong following by many who refuse to sell them even today ....

  The Zfc is however, a bit of a weird one in that it has a DX sensor and not many lenses and seems to be modeled on the chrome version of the FM3A ........ to me it looks great ........ but it will take time to have a range of lenses ......

  ........ of course if one is an aficionado of the Canon style jelly-mold blandness, where case styling or any sort of style at all is based on purely covering up the internals, with little regard to aesthetics  ......
 .......  then Canon may well be your Mona Lisa !!..........

  ...... it's not mine ............
