That's cool. But simply relabeling the camera and lens doesn't really bring any real advantages - except that the camera will certainly cost twice as much because of the name.
The Contax name is becoming increasingly diluted and more of a pure commercial label. This certainly has nothing to do with the image quality and craftsmanship that Contax is normally associated with.
A shame. Instead of silly consumer products with the Contax name, Kyocera should rather bring out a successor to the failed N Digital, or perhaps finally an RTS IV for the N system. Because while the N1 is nice, it's definitely not an RTS IV.

Anyone wondering why I'm linking to my own comments—I was also surprised that a Harald Georgii posted the entire comment in the comments section. But anyway, here it is. Just click on the title. Hmm. I've only found his name elsewhere in connection with the SPD faction on the web (a Word file—dreadful) – is he now wandering through the web copying the text everywhere?
Ok, since I'm admittedly a heretic and someone who soils his own nest, I'm naturally wondering where in the above text one can find the opinion of the Union MPs from the committee – remember P1548, where the Union's opinion was worded somewhat differently. Here's the original article.
A very worth-reading interview with Friedhelm Hengsbach on the dismantling of the welfare state.
Many good answers to what politics and business are currently presenting as alleged facts and truths, and which so many people mindlessly repeat without thinking about it. Yes, Germany is regarded as immobile, rigid, a fettered giant, it has the red lantern. Even in that chancellor's speech it was repeatedly said: Germany must get back to the top! These are the sorts of slogans that are stereotypically repeated. But they don't hold true, they are deliberate deceptions of the population, who are being taken for a ride. A gloomy picture is painted using the method of hellfire preachers, a threatening image is thrown on the wall so that people tremble and let everything be done to them. But whoever influences people in this way and exercises power through threatening gestures does not take those affected seriously; he despises them. And that cannot go well in the long run.
At Der Rollberg I found the original article.
Great idea: a robot from the automotive industry is suddenly promoted to surgeon without sufficient tests being conducted on risks and problems. Who do you think made a quick buck on the approval at the expense of patients?
I found the original article at Spiegel Online: Science.
What's going on there? Have they completely lost it in Hamburg? Why am I even asking, it was almost to be expected from a Senate that's in cahoots with the Schill crowd...

So cool: Mrs. Weiss is making herself just as much an accomplice to the large, established film and music industry and brings the same stupid and mindless arguments as the corresponding representatives of the US government. Of course, here too there is no appreciation whatsoever for citizens' rights to protect their own interests (e.g. availability of films across hardware generations). Of course, here too immediately the general criminalization of all private individuals who have copied copyright-protected material—for whatever reasons—at some point.
Fits perfectly with the government's concept of bowing to business and trampling on the citizen.

Is he still harping on those silly ideas? By now it should have become clear to him that they're just pipe dreams. Programming is a creative process that is significantly determined by the expressive possibilities in the language you program in. Nobody would demand that a poet practice their art using the vocabulary of a tabloid newspaper, while also having to strictly adhere to fixed meter and write the whole thing with primitive tools.
As long as software development clings to primitive languages like C++, Visual Basic, or Java, the problem won't be solved in any meaningful way - whoever has low-level languages at their disposal will always think low-level.
Solutions to this problem have been available since the 80s, it's time the software industry took a closer look at them...
