"I'm suggesting here today the name MARVIL, which stands for Mirrorless Reflex Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens."
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/...sony-nex5.shtmlI must admit I don't get it. Doesn't Reflex indicates the mirror? If so, how can a "Mirrorless Reflex" exist?
"Sony Does EVIL"
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/...nex-intro.shtmlBut it does not. It has no Electronic Viewfinder. So the EV part of the EVIL is just not there. Michael has a whole paragraph on this:
"There is no electronic eye level viewfinder at this time. It isn't clear whether or not there is one coming, though since there is a smart connector on the top of the camera that currently allows the attachment of a flash and an microphone, it is not unfeasible that an EVF lies in the future. I certainly hope so, since I believe that a lot of more serious photographers looking to add a NEX to their kit will find its lack a serious failing, and will possibly choose one of the Four Thirds competitors that at least provides this option. "
And even if they will introduce one, it will be an accessory. The camera itself will still lack the EV part.
So, may I suggest MILC as in Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Compact?
Thank you for your thoughts.
