does a serious alternative exist for modern dslr bodies or desings? I have an old contax camera and I love it, because it looks humane, interesting, it looks like it takes mysterious pictures. And then there's especially entry level dslr cameras of the 2000's that are noisy as washings machines loaded with fucking bricks, they scare people away so they are a huge no for candid shooting, they have no option of having a physical knob for either aperture or shutter times, not even a compromise that could be used for either depending on the auto program you're using
seriously, does anyone make a serious alternative desing?
>inb4 fuji
yeah, I know, but that's a rangefinder and a whole different ballpark
>inb4 nikon Df
This is what I'm eyeing at the moment. Haven't had the opportunity to try one myself yet

Heaps of mirrorless options you stupid fuck. Also use the gear thread, don't need a whole thread for your ranting.
Use the fucking gear thread you retard, your piece of shit opinion doesn't deserve its own thread

the Df is a massive camera with the same footprint as nikon's 'small' fullframe cameras.
You're being deluded by the hard angles and hipster styling and will still look like a giant dorkazoid trying to be discreet with it.
For a genuinely smaller footprint, get an oly em5ii, fuji xt1/t10/pro2, sony a7sii, or the newest blotch on whatever the fragmented pizza face acne sony mirrorless lineup looks like nowadays.
they all have slr-like handling like the Df.

>they scare people away so they are a huge no for candid shooting
That is a complete myth.
Nobody cares about privacy anymore.
And even if they did, you are more likely to be seen as a pervert shooting "stealthily" with your phone than in full view with a big camera.

The fuck are you talking about?
Every DSLR has that.

This is true, the `small is discreet` is just another stupid meme perpetuated by those who are trying to sell you another camera

However unlike those other cams, maybe with the exception of the Sony A7II, the Df's sensor will comprehensively shit all over the rest of them.
It's got the fucking D4 sensor in it and costs way less than the D4 it's a slam dunk in the engineering department.

The D4 sensor doesn't "comprehensively shit all over" anything but M43.

Most people don't take street photos in the "engineering department" however.
Street rarely goes above ISO 1600, as it's generally done outside, when people are awake and around (i.e. day)
>>2854016
Don't forget who you're talking to. His past experience with digital cameras comes from a single Canon sensor from more than a decade ago. He will think pretty much any sensor today is magic.

Because potating in nigger darkness is the only thing to consider right?

A Canon 1000D takes about the same quality images and takes same lenses.
>>2854472
I love shooting film nowadays because I can have cameras much more comfortable and maneuverable for 50 bucks and the image quality is on par. Seriously, who wants a camera the size of fifteen ipads stacked other than a professional sports photographer?
>>2853812
At least it's not a Sony
