You guys. You realise the term you get what you pay for? The upper market would like you to think that, but align features according to market segments, and extra layers, so that the price raises quickly. So, eventually you may pay 5 times or more what you could pay. To fleece you of hard earned money. That's why I am here. The over fleecing gave a number of companies like BM a chance to start out. I'm more like the Chinese supermarket model, sell it low overhead, in volume, and keep them happy, and then its hard for competition to start up. Dominant players use this to crush upstart competition. But these small companies are in the goldilocks zone, where if the big companies offer real value to crush, the lower price affects market completion and evaporates the delusion of the price layering system, making it hard to go back. If I was devious that way, I would likely have done it anyway. The issue is that the rest of the market has to compete to keep the large assembly capacity moving, then afterwards have to try to move up (happening at the moment in some ranges since the phones) but people fontbwant yo price high against the competition. So, now they are acting like the reality doesn't really exist, while inevitably either the cheap industry implodes (maybe from selling to too many people, leaving too little demand) or the big companies dwindle, or they go through to the next level which the cheap companies can't compete with.
So, given the layering strategy above, the market segments have to be respected even in your own products. So you aren't going to sell up market sensors for more expensive cameras, and introduce those features low market too. However, any competitor I'd welcome to, who doesn't want to pksy the game. Do you really think that Panasonic couldn't have put a 8k Red lite inside the gh5. Overlapping DCT based Raw would have been a simple way of doing it.
We are living in a dream world, made by others, not seeing the mechanisations of others. BM has a choice to act beyond others and go the high road with better models cheaper. Let's see what happens in the next year.
