for me, the biggest drawback from the rolling shutter is the silly shapes of moving objects (bicycle- or car wheels, a person running, the fast moving hand of an otherwise still child, you name it, photographed with a somewhat slower shutter setting, say in the range of 1/100 or longer). these very unnatural artifacts can completely spoil an otherwise interesting photograph.i have a strong impression that pixii has chosen a completely electronic camera (exept for the rangefinder focusing) for strictly productive reasons. if i remember correctly, the very first pixii had a globally functioning shutter for the longer speeds mentioned above. pity they left that road.
All this blah blah about sensors it's useless geeky stuff. The biggest drawback for me is that Pixii is electronic shutter only... you'd never be able to use any flash, plus, all the (possible) jello effect and banding issues under artificial lighting...
I'd buy one for 3/4k new in the blink of an eye IF and WHEN they make one with a mechanical shutter. It's few of us, but some Leica shooters use flash.
Personally, flash photography is the core of my works. Please Pixii, if you're reading this, think about it... ;)
Would it be possible to overlay a comparison with the still-current Pixii Plus (A2572+) model's APS-C-size sensor? That model was tested (and highly rated) by DxOMark, but maybe Photons to Photos has not tested it...?
The Pixii Max from France is the only full-frame rangefinder camera in the world not made by Leica. A sensor analysis has now revealed how the more affordable camera fares against the Leica M11, and how big the advantages of full-frame over smaller sensors are.
