Probably the most profound wake-up call on IQ you/I will ever read...
4 months ago

Apologies if this old article is a repost, but I thought it was good value to share in light of the never-ending this-vs-that IQ debates that proliferate.

Written by an industry veteran, it is an unusual ad-hoc experiment comparing the *perceived* IQ of a Canon G10 P&S to a medium format $40,000 Hasselblad H2 and Phase One P45+ digital back. Yes quite seriously!

A fun read, no matter what you do (or don't) take away from it.

Speaking personally, I think the message (especially for some people) is very clear. To use the author's own words: "most cameras are better than most photographers."
