Heiwashin wrote:Probably the best thing i can do is describe the expected use. I've been thinking it might be fun to make some videos about trucker life, sort of an amateur documentary about some of it. I also intend to do some video and picture guides about how to build, troubleshoot, and fly drones, because the majority of people i see on forums are horrifyingly bad at it. The macro is mostly to be able to take close enough pictures of small components for that. Aside from that when i go to really fancy landscapes or see random cool things i'll be snapping pictures or videos. If i do the trucking video thing i'll pick up a dedicated sound set so i'm not worried about hooking a mic into the camera although if something was decent enough that i could use a built in or attached mic sometimes that would be nice.

Doesn't look to me there are lots of 3rd party options for the Fuji system, hence my question.

Don't worry about the macro situation. That's going to depend nearly entirely upon the lens you are using, which can be adapted with any one of these systems. Don't let this "feature" drive your purchase as they'll all be able to do it to your satisfaction. The M5 has a microphone port so you can just hook up whatever you purchase (and even mount it on the camera if you buy something compatible). The only spec of the M5 that I'd be a small bit weary of is that it's not weather sealed (so y'know, don't pour a glass of water on it), but it's not a HUGE deal.

The Canon is 100% coverage, technically- literally every single pixel is split in half, with each side read separately for phase calculation. Its limitations are the same for any camera in that phase detection, especially at the sensor plane, becomes unreliable toward the edges of the image circle.
